So how do you like it? Does it sew like a heavier machine? The box seemed kinda light. Sounds like a too good to be true deal. But maybe not. I think we all need to know the good the bad and the ugly.

I have not quilt stitched with it yet only monogramming and stitching the log cabin quilt top.
The automatic threader is great once you get the hang of it. Threading the bobbin is quick and easy. Being able to sew at the push of a button instead of the foot pedal is awesome. There is a foot pedal so you can sew either way. If the foot pedal is connected you can't use the push button control, the it's easy to disconnect the foot pedal.
It is heavier than it seems so that isn't an issue. I know some machined seem too light weight for quilting but this one seems o.k.
It comes with so many feet options! And when you choose a certain stitch to use it will tell you which foot to use!
For the price...... it should cost more for all it does.
Go for it if you can and if you don't already have those features with what you use now ---- its wonderful. If it's a case of it only has a few features you don't have now and you have a more expensive machine in mind that will do larger quilts, I would say save up for the other machine.
That's my opinion and my report on Suzy Q. :)

Some of these machines.. can you like.. put the fabric on the machine go have lunch and come back and its finished? I think one has to go to school to learn all the possiblities with them. I hope you love her til she is old and worn out!
