Nancy Mahoney's Granny's Stars (Best Estate Sale Ever)
#21
You know, I really don't have anything to compare it to, since I've only ever had this machine. I can tell you that I watch Netflix on my Kindle Fire while I'm sewing, and I'm able to hear what they're saying on the shows without wearing headphones. Does that help? LOL
Oh, maybe this will help more... I did a search online for PQ1500S noise and found this review on Amazon:
"I have two ladyfriends who own this model, and they love it. My Viking Emerald was so noisy compared to theirs, and when I wound a bobbin on the Viking, it sounded like the space shuttle coming in for a landing. They love their machines, and don't ever seem to have any problems with them. Easy to clean and oil, no tension problems, and the pin-feed lets them sew on all kinds of fabrics. I finally decided to purchase a 1500, for free-motion quilting and piecing. Well, I am amazed at the difference!!! It's like magic. This 1500 feels like a limosine. And free-motions like a dream, and the free-motion foot is the best I've ever used. I was convinced of her value in less than a day -- quiet, accurate, and great free-motion - I've had her for three weeks now, and I'm completely delighted. The quality of the machine makes such a difference. She's built to last, and built for accuracy. I gladly give her five stars."
So I guess it's quieter than a Viking Emerald.
