Our verdict

A dedicated embroidery machine with a built in design library, a color touchscreen and USB import, made for home embroiderers. It does not sew garments, so a separate sewing machine is needed for that.

Overview

A home embroiderer who wants a dedicated machine gets built in designs, frame shapes and border styles, plus design editing on a color touch display before stitching begins.

Ease is the reason to buy: a numbered threading diagram, an automatic needle threader and on screen tutorials make setup straightforward. The limit is scope, since the machine only embroiders.

Who it's for

Beginners and growing hobbyists will use the tutorials and editing tools. Those who need a combination sewing and embroidery machine should look elsewhere.
