probably the best maching I have bought so far, and I have purchased 5,my children each got one as they left the nest and went out on their own. This machine does everything that I ever wanted to get done and it does it with ease. The power along with all the attachments makes this machine fantastic. I have been able to accomplish every sewing task I have started, just as I have with each singer I have purchased, but this model is the best one yet, and it has the ability to quilt right along with the multitude of abailable stitches that are built in. Thanks Singer for a great product.
