What Meimou likes about this machine
This is a sewing and embroidery machine With my eyes getting older, the needle threader really makes it easy. Very nice sewing on all levels. Very crisp letters and stitching. A lot of information and materials came with this machine. It came with workbooks for the embroidery unit, 5 bobbins, screwdriver, lightbulb remover, A-F feet plus J, universal needles, the automatic buttonhole foot and the embroidery foot. Also came with 4 (d-cards) for the embroidery unit. 1 alphabet and 3 pattern cards and embroidery thread, stabilizer material and 1 very large hoop. There was no software included. very pleased overall with machine, but would eventually like to upgrade to SE.

What Meimou does not like about this machine
No case is included for the embroidery unit - removing the unit from packing and returning to the box each time is tiresome. Software is rather pricey and blank d-cards run about $100.00 each. Presserfeet are $20.00 each.
