I am pleased with the condition of the machine and it's set up. Each thread was color coordinated to ensure complete understanding of the threading system. I first used the machine with the color coordinated threads to be one familiar. I then proceeded to unthread the second needle and adjusted the machine to test it's functions. I then easily rethreaded the machine in a single color, easily and quickly. The only thing I was not used to was having the presser foot lever on the right of the machine. It felt usual at first but the design makes sense now that I have used the machine. I am pleased with the way the machine performs. A friend purchased this exact server and came by so I could help her learn to use it and is also very pleased.
