    Awesome sewing machine
    5 Stars
    Awesome sewing machine
    I have owned the PC 420 for 4 years know. I have pieced 30 quilts. Also have done quite a bit of free motion for art quilts and thread painting. The machine operated flawlessly. I've used cotton and poly thread of different weights with no problems. Read your instructions for the stitch you are going to use. Free motion takes looser tention than other stitches. Also foot pressure needs to be adjusted. Instructions tell you the proper adjustments. When using decrative stitches or alphabet, stabilizer should be used. The needle threader is the best I have used. The knee lift is a must for me, and auto thread cutter. You can program the cutter and create your own stitches. There are many different stitches 294 right. At this price range the machine is unmatched. I own a janome horizon 7700 and a juki 2000 and the brothers holds its own. I do service my machines. This machine is very nice and I would recommend it to anyone. I still use this machine even though I have the Janome.
