How I agree with the previous post! I had to change my original bobbin case two weeks after buying the machine after I attempted some free motion quilting. That cost me another £20 but luckily my sewing shop allowed me to have it at cost price. I like the machine in general but the tension problems are just too difficult at times. You have to adjust the dial almost to 1 before it starts to be possible to achieve a good stitch when free motion stitching. I\'m now considering a bernina and swapping this in part exchange. Would not recommend it.

I have had this machine for a couple of hours and then the bobbin case started to jump out of alignment. After 40 years of sewing I know what I am doing so knew that I was threading the machine correctly. I also read the manual from cover to cover and looked at threading instructions on the internet which confirmed I was doing ok. However this machine has been back to the retailer and now they are going to replace it. I am not that confident that all will be ok, although I hope it will. No machine should be this fussy. I have always owned Janome in the past and have been pleased with them. When the needle hits the bobbin case turning it into swiss cheese this is not right. I have reservations about this machine, only time will tell when the replacement arrives. So far not impressed.
