Five stars
This is a great little machine. Compact enough to fit in a cubbyhole space but amazing in what it can do. 
Yes, there is a slight issue with the bottom thread not catching the first time (it catches on the 3 or 4 turn of the wheel) but the machine is easy to use and easy to troubleshoot as I had to do when the needle pushed a bent pin into the lower bobbin mechanism. Oops!
