I have one and no it doesn't. I got it for Christmas and I have found that the bobbin winder does not fill a bobbin evenly. I just need to help it along. Also the tension needs adjusting with the different threads I use. All in all, I do like the machine. I needed one with bigger throat space and boy it sure does help. I just got a king size quilt done with little problems other than adjusting the tension when free motion quilting.
