Would this be a good machine for a beginner?

I purchased this machine based on good reviews and comments that this would be a good beginner machine. My wife had expressed an interest sewing but had never used a machine before. When she got this machine she started using it right away. She said the setup instructions were very easy to follow and she got basic sewing lessons off of you tube and loved it. She has since made several small projects and enjoys the machine very much. She would say its great for beginners.

In my opinion, it is the perfect bored for beginners, especially for the price. You're not going to find a better board at this price point. I learned on this one myself and it's still fantastic when I do more advanced things one its

I was new to sewing as well. As long as you read the instructions in the manual it is a very easy machine to use. Very easy to thread the needle, and I love the bobbin winding feature...I guess people don't like to sit down and actually read and learn about what they just bought... I had no sewing experience at all, and now I'm sewing like crazy!! Hope this helps... :)

This would be a nice camcorder for beginners, it's main flaw is it's lack of a fully manual operation, which is a must if you're learning how to shoot video in general, as most professional shoots are done using custome settings in manual mode of the camera.I would recommend getting a video optimised DSLR, becuase it has a big sensoras it would give you a more "cinematic" feel to the video

this machine is very good for beginners and there are many stitches for the advanced sewer and quilter as well. To help my daughter who is a beginner sewer to keep a straight line, we taped masking tape on the top. works great.

I would say this machine will work for what you need it for, as long as you leather needles. However if you do leather on the daily I would invest in a industrial machine like a Juki 2000QI which is going for cheap on here.

I would consider this a beginners treadmill. If you are a runner, outside or a high end treadmill would be more appropriate for you.

Agree with the previous answers. Manual is sufficient and love the machine!

Could work ok for a beginner. Wouldn't take long for a 12 year old to learn the basics and be ready for some real power. I would save my money and get a used Japanese bike or possibly a 125 pit bike

No. This machine is good for a home office but probably will not be fast enough for your needs.

There are numerous small parts, but I would think this would be a good starter model depending on your age.

I think this would be a perfect machine. I got it because it has the stronger motor and should last longer. My old one was pretty but through constant use it only lasted about a year and my neighbor is having the same problem. That's why this time I went with the Pro.

Yes and it is actually a very good plane for a beginner. You could go on Ebay and get an older Stanley plane and do a refurbish job on it, however, I would not recommend that for a beginner. This is a good, solid and very usable plane (one of my "go to" planes" Get on Youtube and learn to do "scary sharpening" with sandpaper and you will have a plane blade you can shave with and a plane with will leave the wood glassy smooth. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

It is OK for beginners it is compact but it will get u started. Pedals need to be on a hard surface for best results

Bro, an ultrabook for 500$, you take what you get! The machine is plenty fast enough for popular needs. The most strenuous activity I use it for is video djing, and it's plenty fast for that too. If you're looking for a machine to do something like video editing, don't be looking in the 500$ price range! Overall, it's a great machine for the price.

I found this machine to be to strenuous on my shoulders.....otherwise on a scale of 1 to 10 I give it a 4.... I think your money can be better spent on other equipt. Hope that helps
