It offers 97 stitch applications, adjustable presser foot pressure for lightweight fabrics, a top drop-in bobbin and LED lighting. Four presser feet come in the box. It suits sewers who work with denim, canvas and home decor and want a simple, sturdy machine; compared with computerized rivals it trades stitch screens and automatic features for mechanical reliability and heavier piercing power.
