I've only had this car for about 24 hours. The guide is very good considering the guides and manuals found in today's society. I watched several videos of this car while waiting for it to arrive. The delivery was 4 days faster than stated. The packaging was superbly covered with a thick foam that hugs the machine snugly. The box was informative. Firstly it had the pink test thread in the spool, still in the machine, which for best results should be removed and reinserted before making your own test patches as it got a bit tangled during shipping. It also had its own test with approval stamped right on it so you can instantly check the stitches YOUR new machine is making. I was impressed. Take your time. I was so excited that I wanted to sit down and start sewing right away, but I remembered that the description said "Management has their golden house". I like this description and it is very true. So after reading the instructions, like a good girl. I slowly approached the project of learning this new machine, checking and checking all the symbols, pins and settings and after about half an hour I was running test patches like a pro. One thing I did was take a permanent marker and mark each of the legs with the respective letter that can be found in both the manual and on the car ie. HJOZ etc. The letter and alphabet are a bit questionable but a nice addition. You can change the width between letters, but not the dimensions. Upper and lower case is a step above brother's machine. Construction and design seams work great. The one-step buttonholes work great, as does the sew/bar button. All my machine needles from my last machine work the same as bobbins and thread, only the legs are different. The light is bright and the LCD screen is easy to read. You can quickly view the number of stitches by holding down the buttons or step through them one by one. My husband smiled widely and even laughed out loud when he saw me picking up and carrying this sewing machine as he knew I wasn't sewing as much as I wanted due to moving and storing for me with my old car and him too wasn't always there to move it for me. It's so light I almost knocked it over when I hit the back button, so I put earthquake spatula under one of the legs and it worked like magic and held in place until I moved it. I like that it's light and easy to drive. Motor bear, it didn't strain when used with thick material, better than brother again. My machine isn't "loud," nor is it very quiet, but I can still hear the radio or TV while sewing. If you get a machine that seems too loud, I think something is wrong and you need to contact the seller. I've only had this car for 24 hours so I'll update my review if anything good or bad happens in the future. But for now I'm very happy with it and so glad I made the choice to do it. For the price I got more of a car than a brother or singer, plus an ultra light weight. I look forward to getting an extended table and hard case for it in the future. Thank you for making this car more accessible. I am praying for you and the workers who make this sewing machine so well, I ask God to bless you. (a bit silly, but I'm not immune to the understanding of hard work and family support). I am very disappointed that the sewing machine has dropped in price by more than $10. since I've had it :( , can't find a side table with it either, I hope it hasn't been discontinued.
