I haven't had the opportunity to use it as much as I would like yet, but what I have tried is wonderful. It is a great update to my 24 year old heavy duty machine that is still running fine too. I chose this one to use to quilt and upcycle or make new clothing. Very pleased so far! The videos are helpful in getting up and running and the machine is simple to use. Thanks for a great product! I've never been disappointed with a Singer machine.
