Pleasantly Surprised

I have been sewing off and on for over 20 years. I am not a "professional" seamstress by any definition but am quite capable of creating clothing that does not have that telltale "homemade" look about it. This includes formalwear for special occasions and business suits which I have worn to court. I already own 2 full-sized machines and a serger. I ordered this NEX machine after reviewing features and reading innumerable reviews about it and several competitor models. My goal…

Pros
  • Please ensure the direction of the needle and the winding is fluent before sewing
Cons
  • Cheap plastic construction makes the machine feel flimsy and insubstantial

I am very pleased with the service, I received my sewing machine in perfect conditions as portrait. It could be useful to improve the manual (it's printed in black and white and the pictures are small, really difficult to see in detail. I will suggest to print in the manual a web site where people like me (with zero experience) can see in detail how to operate this machine. I look for explanatory videos and I found a couple of them that were useful, however I think that there is a lot that can…

Pros
  • Sewing
Cons
  • Some components of the machine feel loose or wobbly

Very disappointed on my review.

Update: I bought two more of these. One for each granddaughter. When I received the first one, I believed I had received a returned one. It was not packaged correctly and it was threaded and had a sewn fabric strip un set the presser foot. Thought it was used and returned. What I realized is they all come this way. It’s actually a great idea because they do a test run with the proof right there for you to view upon opening the box. I’m very impressed with the machine. I hope it gives the girls…

Pros
  • It’s very easy to use
Cons
  • Lacks proper tension control, resulting in loose or uneven stitches

A great little machine for newbes

I really liked my little sewing machine. It was very easy to learn how to use. For someone who doesn't have any experience with sewing machines, this machine made it easy to learn.It worked so well and I was able to make many masks.However, I started having issues with the bottom not catching and after trying to troubleshoot I wasn't able to fix the issue. Maybe for someone more experienced it would have been an easy fix. Besides that I would recommend this machine.

Pros
  • Puedo cargarla y fácil de usar
Cons
  • Difficult to thread needles, causing frustration and wasting time

It has two speeds and sews really well!

This seems to a decent little sewing machine. I have sewn for over 45 yrs so am pretty proficient at. I bought this little "NEX” machine because it had good reviews. The biggest reason was that it had a low and high speed. Between that and the reviews, and studying on sewing machines for two days I chose this one. Our youngest granddaughter was thrilled with it and has already made two or three of the little projects that are in the beginning sewing book that we got her to go with her machine…

Pros
  • It is recommended to study the instructions in the package patiently before using. Of course, the operation video on the website will make it easier for you to use this sewing machine. Before children use it, they must have experienced adults to help them study it. The portable sewing machine comes with NEX At Your Side support offering free technical support via email for the life of your machine.
Cons
  • Tension dial is stiff and difficult to turn, requiring extra effort to adjust

Good trial or learning sewing machine

I bought this as I already did a lot of hand sewing and wanted to try machine sewing. I wanted a trial before buying a nice machine so this little one was perfect.Easy to use. Just know the motor is weak and has a hard time going through tightly-woven fabric or more than two layers of fabric.Great sewing machine.

Pros
  • 10.6 x 4.7 x 9 inches
Cons
  • User manual is unclear and difficult to follow

the cutest little machine!

It's true when they say big things come in small packages! this is so small it can fit into my backpack to take to school! I am a fashion design student at Parsons NYC. The padel and the hand switch takes a while to get used to. The machine only holds small spools of thread which is a bit annoying. Otherwise, it is really strong! and can stich through 2 layers of haraform!

Pros
  • High-quality performance at an affordable price point
Cons
  • Frequently runs out of bobbin thread, causing interruptions in work flow

Learn How a Sewing Machine Works First!

I am a very new beginner to sewing machines. I read the instructions and watched youtube videos to learn how to use this machine, or any sewing machine for the matter. This machine is just like any larger sewing machine but smaller. I had some issues at first getting the bobbin to stay untangled, but then I fi

Pros
  • Compact and portable for easy transportation and storage
Cons
  • Bobbin often runs out of thread unexpectedly, causing interruptions in your work

Jammed constantly, broke all 3 needles during normal use

Like the title says. While using this item (properly, I read the instructions before using it, as I was new to sewing). While practicing with a piece of trash cloth I had, testing out the different settings, it jammed while using the number 9 setting (like a zig-zag) it jammed. The cloth wasn't thick, it was a single-layer rag, and I hadn't tried to open anything up on the machine, so everything was factory setting. It did this all on it's own. while trying to get it to unjam, the needle…

Pros
  • Has a bright LED light for improved visibility while sewing
Cons
  • Protective case is flimsy and easily broken

Not the best on my review.

I have tried several sewing machine and this one was not user friendly. The thread broke constantly and would get tangled. I just got frustrated with it and returned it.

Pros
  • Offers adjustable thread tension for customized results
Cons
  • Machine jams frequently and is difficult to unjam without a lot of effort
