What anncie1 likes about this machine
This mahcine is very nice. It has 21 stitches and takes "cards" that have various decorative stitches. I has a cover stitch as well as a triple cover stitch. It runs well, is smooth and very quiet. The rolled hem and three thread stitches are exceptional. I was a consultant for Elna and had the pleasure of testing all of their machines. Let me know if you would like any more reviews on their machines.

What anncie1 does not like about this machine
I did a manual on this machine and stitch samples. I'm not sure but after all that work the tension disc's gave out and i had to have it serviced. After if was fixed it worked fine.
