★★☆☆☆
Jammed at first, but now it's fixed.
I thought this machine was jam proof. There are a lot nice features to this machine, but my thread keeps jamming up. I'm thinking of returning it.

I cleaned out the bobbin area, removed any threads, and rethreaded top and bottom and it now works like a charm. I've had to do this twice so far, so I'm not sure if it is something that I am doing wrong. It works great now. I decided to keep it.

I have sewn three quilts so far, and have only had one minor jamming problem. The problem was putting the bobbin in upside down. I flipped it right side up and that solved the problem. I love all the different stitches, but wish the alphabet feature had different font sizes. The size that comes with the machines is very small about 1/4 inch. I have a problem adding thread to the bobbin. The machine doesn't automatically add the thread very evenly, and I have to manually move the thread up and down the bobbin to keep the thread from bunching up in one area, otherwise I like this machine.

I was finally able to change the rating from two stars to four stars. Just waiting for Amazon to update the change.

After reading the instructions correctly I learned how to thread the bobbin correctly, and I have not had a problem since. I love the different stitches, very easy to use and my sewing buddies are jealous of my various stitches. This is a good price for what you get. I got mine for about $350 on amazon Dec08.
