• Push Button Stitch Selection: Easily select your desired stitch with convenient push buttons .

Professional Performance and Durability

Convenience and Ease of Use

• Built-In Automatic Needle Threader: Effortlessly threads the eye of the needle, eliminating eye strain and saving you valuable time .

• Top Drop-In Bobbin: The transparent bobbin is easy to insert and monitor, allowing you to see your thread supply at a glance so you never run out mid-seam .

• Automatic Metal Bobbin Winder: Wounds bobbins quickly and evenly .

• LCD Screen: The clear LCD display shows your selected stitch, helping you keep track of your settings .

• Speed Control Slider: Set the maximum sewing speed of the machine by moving the slider left (slow) or right (fast), giving you precise control for detailed work or for beginners learning to sew .

• Start/Stop Button: Allows you to start and stop sewing without using the foot pedal, which is helpful for consistent stitching and for those who prefer not to use a pedal .

• Programmable Needle Up/Down: Set the needle's stopping position as desired. Press to have the needle stop down in the fabric each time you stop sewing—great for appliqué, topstitching, pivoting, and more .

• Tie-Off Button: Tie off the stitch and stop sewing automatically. You can even program the machine to perform a tie-off at the end of a stitch before you begin .

• Extra-High Presser Foot Lifter: The presser foot has an extra-high position that allows the machine to easily accommodate thick fabrics and multiple layers .

• Variable Needle Positions: Adjust the needle position as desired for various sewing techniques like topstitching, edgestitching, zipper application, piping insertion, and more .

• Twin Needle Function: For stitches other than straight stitch, this function reduces the stitch width when sewing with a twin needle to ensure the needles clear the presser foot, helping prevent needle breakage .

• Drop Feed Lever Control: Feed teeth can be lowered for button sewing or free-motion sewing—a must-have feature for quilters! Simply slide the drop feed lever to lower the feed teeth .
