Triumph
Compact Learner Sewing Machine ST030
Received yesterday and very impressive. I didn't want to spend a motza on a machine that I would use infrequently and I am at an age where I can have difficulty lifting the full size machine. This little machine is an absolute bottler I put it through its paces today and it did everything I need the these stitch length is preset to three different lengths which will cover everything you need you've got three different Zig stags are from memory and buttonhole of course the one thing I didn't like is when you fill the bobbin the needle goes up and down it doesn't disengage but apart from that and the lights a little bit weak but that's fine I use a mecklamp for crafting so makes no difference to me it is an absolute little ripper and I'm so pleased I bought it and it runs on battery too

plastic packaging

Great service - the online purchase and delivery went smoothly.
However, the amount of styrofoam packaging the machine, and plastic wrapping of the box, was appalling.
