Which make do you have?

My Pfaff flashes a little red light which I find enormously useful.

Don't you just hate it when you have sewn a whole seam and realize that you ran out of bobbing thread 1/2 mile back? I keep waiting for them to make a bigger bobbin. LOL

My Janome embroidery machines ding to warn of a low bobbin.
You get spoiled to it fast, too.

My Pfaff 2040, which is almost 15 years old shows me on my screen that my bobbin thread is getting low. Great feature. Love it. Have to be sure to keep the inside of the bobbin free of lint or it doesn't work.
