KPCB Tech Sewing Machines for Beginners, 12 Stitches Sewing Machine with Updated LED Strip and Sewing Kit Home Travel Use

Does what it says and it's easy to use. Took a few minutes to find the correct instructional video for threading the machine though.

I first bought this machine in 2021 and have used it a lot, even sewed 3 quilts on it. For the price point it's been great, I really didn't expect it to be perfect but it does all the basic things I needed it to and even though it is sometimes fiddly (remember to fix the tension if you're having thread issues) the biggest issue I had was a few broken needles when the fabric was too thick.It seemed like it was having more issues than usual lately so after 3 years of use I thought I'd buy a second machine for backup. Luckily I tested it out before the return window closed because even though it looks like the exact same machine, apparently the quality has gone down in the past 3 years.On the new machine, the bobbin cover doesn't stay attached so it's constantly falling off and every time you reverse stitch it's pushed open. The nails next to the feed dogs aren't flush with the machine so previous stitches or threads on the fabric you're sewing get caught on them and suddenly your fabric is all puckered and messed up. The feed dogs pull the fabric at an angle, so when you start sewing the fabric is pulled off to the left instead of staying straight. I'm sure there are even more issues but those were enough to make me return it.If it had been the same machine that I bought 3 years ago I would've left a 5 star review because for a low cost machine, as long as you were willing to play around with the tension, it worked just fine. I loved the simplicity of my old machine. But this version is not functional.The "new and improved" led light is just a waste of space too, you can only plug it in via a USB cord so unless you want to waste another plug space and use your phone charger or happen to have a computer sitting next to you to plug it into, you can't use it anyway!I guess I just need to give up and buy an expensive Brother.

I have to say I am glad I got this sewing machine. It’s my first time to use it and I thought it was more of a toy than a usable sewing machine. I used the extra cloth with the package and used the 12 options for the stitches it has and it was easy to use. It is still light weight for what is and it’s not hard to use it.I was able to sew my dress to make it slimmer and it it did well. I will for sure use it more often to practice and also do some stitching.

I bought this for my daughter for Christmas last year. Unfortunately, she didn’t use it for 4 months, otherwise I would have returned it.The machine runs in the “off” position. It does this while the foot pedal isn’t being touched. It’s dangerous at the very least.

For granddaughter

Bought this for Christmas for our granddaughter who wanted to learn to sew. It was easy for her to figure out and she started sewing right away and was so happy... until it malfunctioned after about two weeks. Basically the needle timing is off and will not thread the bobbin any longer. Tried taking it apart to fix but it just isn't worth the time and headache so it this thing is going in the trash can. This basically was a $70 experiment to find out how interested she is in sewing, now will invest in a higher quality item.

I hate writing reviews, but I am so wildly frustrated I can’t not. This is a total piece of junk. The tension does not work at ALL, so the machine is completely useless. Spare yourself and keep scrolling.

The title is toy because if you really want to show someone how to sell as a beginner, don’t buy a cheap machine when this machine goes too fast it is jammed up on the facet on top and the needle breaks off from the metal. I try to several times, and the needle kept breaking on the machine.

So this is a small, plastic, cheap looking sewing machine. But it does the job! I just sewed a zipper on knitting and fabric liner. I couldn’t believe it actually sewed together all three zipper, liner and knitting. Just hope it lasts!

I have spent a significant amount of money on electronic sewing machines, that I could neither understand or even thread, it made me feel pretty stupid. But this little machine is amazing, easy to thread and to get the thread from the bobbin up, I’m so pleased with this little machine, it isn’t bulky, nor heavy, it doesn’t get in my way and it’s easy to lift on to my table. I have so many spine and hand problems, but the little machine can be used by pushing a button, slow, fast, off. I don’t even need the foot pedal. To me it is a perfect sewing machine with lots of different stitches. And it can go backwards too, avoiding the thread from pulling apart.Recommended for sure 100%The price is also value for money.

Simple à utiliser légère et facile à ranger, vraiment très bien. Un petit bémol sur l’absence de prise Europe, mais bon ça le fait quand même. Pour la notice un petit mail au vendeur et je l’ai eue dans la journée. Top !

it was not working ..

Bon achat, cependant, attention la prise d'alimentation est une prise anglaise. Pensé à commandé un adaptateur secteur.
