This machine is an absolute dream! I did a lot of research and discovered it is apparently identical to the Bernina 1300, just without the LCD. I will admit, that because I was not familiar with a machine capable of a chain stitch & cover stitch, I did have to read the manual a couple of times to get the threading correct. -- I've had it for about 1 day, and I can thread this machine in seconds -- it's very easy once you get used to the thread paths. Once I had it ready to go and I touched the pedal for the first time, I was amazed at the power. ( it put my 10+ year 3/4 Janome to shame). The straight blade/upper knife system is excellent and the stitch quality cannot be beat. -- this unit also has a feature that enables you to change the stitch width -- Bernina call this MTC. My attempts to utilize this feature have resulted in perfect stitches. The built in rolled hem is also convenient. My old machine required a stitch plate change -- this machine requires you to flick a switch and turn a dial -- it's fantastic and so easy. Then you look at the price of these machines! When you compare other models that sell for thousands more -- very pleased with this purchase indeed. |
