I have a Necchi Supernova that was purchased by my husband on July 13, 1956. It is still going strong. It is my favorite sewing machine, even better than my Bernina. I have sewed clothing, craft items, wedding accessories, and canvas items for a hammock on it. Very dependable. Love it! Have fun with yours! You'll be a believer. Enjoy.

My mother had a Necchi that I bought her and I also had a Necchi and loved it.

Necchi used to be a great machine but I am not familiar with the other brand.

Necchi is a great machine. I have had my 523 for over 40 years. It has travelled with me from Jamaica and it is still going strong. Very reliable and is a breeze to use. Grab it!

I have never used one but I read somewhere Necchi is like the Ferrari of sewing machines.

I owned a Necchi years ago in the dim and distant past. It was a wonderful machine and I passed it along to my sister when I bought a newer machine. The one I had was beautifully engineered and never gave me a moment's trouble.

my mom had a Necchi. she got in in 1957 and finally got a new machine in the 1990's. It was a great machine

That's interesting. I had a Necchi, it was beautiful too. I didn't know anything about it at the time and sold it for almost nothing.

I bought a Necchi made in Italy in 1952. Black, all metal, a real workhorse. Bought another Necchi in 1974 when the freearm came out. By that time they were made in Japan and it never sewed like the one made in Italy. Got rid of that one in a hurry and kept and used the first one until 1986. Kept going from one machine to another until the day came when I finally ponied up and bought my first Bernina and dearly love it to this day.

I learned to sew on my mother's Necchi. It was a wonderful solidly built machine that never failed us. I wish I still had it :)
