Review on Heavy Duty 4423 Decorative Automatic by Lin Wei-Yin ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Feel free to buy, for such a price, the quality is simply amazing.

the machine sews very confidently even the heaviest fabrics, while it easily takes, for example, silk. Suddenly it turned out quite demanding on the quality of needles, Bernina is ready to work with the same needle for much longer. Now I use schmetz needles based on the principle 1 needle = 1 piece. . Addition number one: if the lower thread winds, then (following the recommendations on the American website of the manufacturer), it must be wound onto the bobbin by wrapping it around the tensioner twice, and not once, as in the instructions. Addition number two: my machine sometimes misses the right zigzag puncture on fabrics that are too light. It is treated by a more accurate selection of the diameter and type of needle, and sometimes you have to put thin paper (I use typewriter paper - 60 grams per square meter) under the fabric, and then remove it from the resulting seam. Addition number three: for darning, it is better to buy a foot for Burnetta and bend it a little so that the fabric presses more tightly. Then easily takes trousers, jeans, skirts (with the appropriate needle)

Pros
  • simple, convenient and very powerful
Cons
  • wants to work only with high-quality sharp needles, when the needle becomes blunt, it begins to wind the thread from the bobbin into the fringe from the wrong side.
