Sewing Machine for Beginners with Fabrics&Finger Guard, Mini Size

I have this great set of flannel sheets. They have been washed so many times that the tags are not readable. They are soooo comforta ... gah! The seams have broken at all of the corners! The thread appears to have come undone on two of the corners, and the other two just ripped at the seam ... about three inches along the corner. Otherwise, they are in great shape. I wonder if they is an inexpensive way to fix these well loved sheets. Do it yourself. And that's always the answer. I looked at sewing machines, but they are pretty pricey for a decent one. They are also bloated with features to the point where I can't really work it without taking a class on it, and my college days have passed me. Some machines I needed to major in Sewing to use. So, I stumble upon this mini KPCB upgraded sewing machine. I read the reviews, and they are quite impressive. I have a look at the pictures, and I think ... wait, it's plastic! And it looks small, like a kid's toy. And it's plastic. It's too inexpensive to work like a real machine. It's still plastic. I re-read the reviews. Well, kids can use it, but it's not a toy. It's simple to use, great for repairing things. It's reasonably well constructed. There are video instructions on how to use it (not very long, 8 to 10 minutes or so, I checked). The support people are great. Amazon has a great return policy, so ... It arrived, and I re-watched the videos. Too simple, but knowing me, I'll have some issues. Let me run a few tests and make sure all of the buttons work. They do. Let me go ahead and remove the cloth like in the video and re-stitch it. I do, and it's fine. I make a note to leave lots of thread when removing the sewn item ... I need to tie both ends near the cloth, double knot. Also, the machine itself needs at least about 10 inches to start (so that I can tie a knot in the thread where its starts sewing, and also the machine needs a lead piece as the video instructed). Great, no problem. I would like to use the foot pedal, but I'm too clunky with my feet. It's hard to work that way for me. Not everyone, just me. Wait... if I put the "foot" pedal under my right arm, about half way between hand and elbow, I can control the machine AND guide the cloth. That worked out great! So, I grab the fitted sheet that needs repair. I overlay the two pieces of cloth and put a pin or two in them to keep the edges together, nice and straight. I raise the sewing machine foot, line up the edge, and put in the cloth. I clamp down the sewing machine foot, and I turn the knob on the right side, following the arrows, to make a few stitches first (as the instructions recommend). I turn on the light, set the machine to low speed, hold the cloth to feed it, and .... engage foot pedal! It sews at a speed that I can keep pace with. It went all the way through, no problems. It all lined up very nicely. I followed the instructions to find the sweet spot so that the thread will pull without resistance and the cloth slides right out. On the upper thread I took it out of the tensioner and used my finger to hold it. It pulled much easier that way, and I stuck it back when I had enough. Pull out plenty as this will need tying on the cloth side, and it becomes the lead thread for sewing the next item. Well, it came out perfectly on both sides. Not too shabby. Better than expected, actually. Much better. I did another one as re-enforcement, and then I tied all the thread ends up near the cloth. I did all four corners this way. I guess I was thinking there would be more to it. The machine worked quite well, and it seemed well constructed ... even if it is plastic. The support people answered a question I had, and were very prompt and polite. I could see kids using this with supervision at a reasonable age. Huh, just like advertised and reviewed. How often does THAT happen? Side Note: Technically, I could have sew everything by hand without even turning the sewing machine on (just by manually turning the right knob). Good to know if you're camping and have no power. It does sew without power.

I’m very happy with this sewing machine! It’s compact, lightweight, and very easy to use, making it perfect for beginners. The instructions were simple to follow, and I was able to start sewing right away. It runs smoothly, has enough speed for small projects, and the stitches come out clean and even. I’ve used it for simple fabric repairs and small craft projects, and it has worked great every time. The included accessories are a nice bonus. Overall, this is an excellent value for the price, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an easy-to-use sewing machine.

For a beginner sewing machine, this is perfect. I bought it because my full size sewing machine broke. I don't sew as much any more but wanted to hem some curtains. For the price, it is perfect. No reverse, not very fast either, but it did the job.

Thought this would be a good beginner machine if you want the very basics and to understand how to handle a machine without all the fancy gadgets. From the beginning my needle bent and broke during sewing for my first small project, then I started having thread issues where it kept breaking. I even purchased different thread thinking it might be cheap thread from the company but it turns out it's something with the machine. The tension it puts on the thread kept causing it to break. From my first project; I thought maybe I'm just really bad at this and took a sewing class and in my 2 hour class when i come home to try the same project, it took me 3days with more than 4 hours each day to finish. On project 3 and now it's not even budging to cooperate. I was able to get 2 full projects out of this machine and all I made was a lined and unlined drawstring bag. Turns out it's probably best to just spend the money for the real deal which will save me time, and from being frustrated and having a headache.

Not sure if it was returned or something but it didn't come with the little sewing kit or with fabric. It was cheap and it's lightweight and cute

I’m very happy with this sewing machine. It’s easy to use, works really well, and comes with useful accessories to get started right away. The size is convenient, and I love having everything I need in one set. Great quality for the price and definitely a good choice for beginners. I would recommend it!

My middle schooler has been asking for a sewing machine for a while, and it finally arrived! She is so excited to start learning and creating her own projects. I like that the machine is compact and lightweight, making it easy to move and store. The included fabric bundles and 42-piece accessories give her plenty of materials to practice with right away. It’s a good fit for common lightweight fabrics such as cotton, polyester, and thin craft fabrics, which makes it versatile for simple sewing projects, repairs, and DIY crafts. The machine is especially suitable for beginners working on smaller projects rather than thick or heavy materials. The dual-speed settings make it easier to control the sewing pace, and the foot pedal and extension table provide added convenience. The finger guard is another thoughtful feature for a young beginner. Overall, it’s a fun and practical starter machine that offers good versatility and plenty of opportunities to learn and be creative.

I am very happy with this sewing machine. It is perfect for beginners because it is easy to use and comes with everything needed to get started, such as thread, needles, scissors, and various fabrics. I like that it is compact and doesn't take up much space; it also includes a foot pedal and an extension table, which makes working on projects more comfortable. It sews lightweight and medium-weight fabrics very well, and the two speed settings are really helpful when you are still learning. It offers excellent value for money, especially for those who want to get into sewing without spending too much. I would definitely recommend it.

جات الماكينه فقط من غير اي قطع زياده او اي بكر خيط

I love that it came with all these beautiful pattered cloths! Its so cute and lightweight and has been working great so far, I have been using it for a week to fix my hoodie that I cut to add zips to :D

è quasi un giocattolo. E nn c'è possibilità di registrare la tensione della bobina di sotto. Diciamo ke per una bambina di 7 anni ke vuole imparare va più ke bn. Ma nn è conforme alla descrizione nn si possono fare veri aggiusti. Non ne ha le capacità.

Bought this for a gift. Works well.

I’m really happy I bought this electric mini sewing machine. I’ve always wanted to try sewing but didn’t want to invest in a big or expensive machine as a beginner. This one is the perfect size for home use and learning, and it comes with everything I needed to get started. The machine itself is lightweight but sturdy, and it doesn’t take up too much space on the table. It came with an extension table, which is great for larger pieces of fabric and gives extra support when sewing. The machine is easy to use, even for someone like me who had no experience before. The instructions are clear, and I was able to start sewing straight away. What I really liked is that it comes with 42 sewing tools — lots of thread in different colours, needles, bobbins, scissors, a seam ripper, and more. I didn’t need to buy anything else separately. It’s all included, which makes it a great value for the price. The two speed settings are really useful. I started with the slower speed to practise, and then moved to the faster one as I got more confident. It sews smoothly and evenly, and I’ve already done simple repairs and small craft projects with no problems. You can use the foot pedal or the button control, whichever you prefer, and switching between the two is easy. It’s also very quiet compared to bigger machines, which I appreciate since I like to sew in the evening. The built-in light helps me see my stitches clearly, and the machine feels safe and well-designed. Threading it is simple after the first time, and changing the bobbin is quick.
