I just want it to GO! My old machine can be controlled stitch by stitch when slow is needed.

I have never been impressed with the speed control. In fact I prefer to do FMQ with me only in control of the speed.

I've never used a machine with any speed control other than the foot pedal.

I love the speed control. If I want to go fast I just put it on fast. Sometimes I need it to go slow too

i love my speed control!
when i have it on fast it is fast- when i am working on something where i need to slow down i can adjust it to just right so if i get a little (heavy footed) i do not mess up and speed out of control.
it is also a wonderful feature when my granddaughter's come to visit-
for me it is a feature i look for and feel as important as needle down feature.

I have speed control on three of my machines and I love it. Even when it's at it's lowest setting it goes plenty fast. When I do piecing sometimes I like to go slower and it allows me to do so. With the mega quilter it's helps w/FMQ to be able to slow it down; I don't see a downside and I rarely ever use it at the top speed; especially my mega quilter

I am in awe of everyone that can sew fast! I just can't so speed control is a must for me.
