Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of SewPro SP-402 QuickStitch Sewing Machine
Customer Review: Exactly what we wanted
Summary: 5 Stars
My nine year old daughter wanted a sewing machine and like many other things she wants I didn't want a big investment only to learn she's bored five minutes in...this machine works perfectly. I haven't sewed in years and I was so pleased the instructions for threading the spool and bobbin were very clear and concise. She has been able to use it with ease and we're having fun making clothes for her stuffed animals.
I highly recommend this item, we've had no problems with it whatsoever and is easy to use for young and old and really sew like a sewing machine.
Customer Review: Great Value

After considerable research, we decided to get this sewing machine for our 9-year old daughter. We feel this is the best low-cost sewing machine for the money. Although many of the components are plastic, the machine is sturdy and well made. It includes a foot-pedal, does not require batteries, and closely resembles the basic features and shape of a traditional $100+ sewing machine. I only give this item four stars because there is no light.
After helping our daughter select the proper thread and tension adjustment, she has made several hats, skirts, and so on. We have also found that no matter how cheap or expensive a sewing machine is, there are going to be problems if it is your first time at sewing. Many people don't realize that there is a fair amount of knowledge and skill required to make ANY sewing machine stitch properly. If you can't get your sewing machine to stitch properly it is most likely tension setting, thread selection, etc..

Hope this helps !

I bought this machine because I needed something to hem up some pants for my children and myself. I didn't have alot of money to spend on a full size sewing machine so I decided to purchase this one. It's great. It's so small so it doesn't take up alot of room in my little apartment. It's also very easy to use. I never used a sewing machine and with the easy to follow instructions, I caught on quickly. It hems up pants perfectly and I was able to hem a pair of jeans with no problems. It doesn't have a light but as long as you have enough light in the room you are working in it's OK. I haven't tried repairing anything yet but if it hems jeans, I am sure it will fix anything. I would recommend this to anyone who has never used a sewing machine and doesn't want to spend alot of money on one.Customer Review: Great for what it is and what I need

I needed a sewing machine to stitch together the toys my dog ripped apart and to make him new ones. I had never used a sewing machine in my life, and so I researched a lot of the lower-priced machines on Amazon and Jo-Ann Fabrics. I opted for this machine because I wanted a food pedal and an AC power source.
For a beginner's machine, I think it's great. I'm learning how to sew, how to thread the machine, and how to be patient (which I discovered is very important). When I actually get the hang of things are start working on clothing, I'll upgrade to a fancy machine with all sorts of stitches and lights and doodads. For right now, my dog likes the stitching of this machine, I like the ease of use, and my fiance likes how small it is.
Customer Review: Read Reviews and instructions carefully
Summary: 4 Stars
I do NOT sew, but got tired of hemming pants by hand. After searching the web carefully I decided to purchase the SewPro quickstitch. It claimed to do what I wanted and was cost effective. Before purchasing, I read all the reviews and felt it was most helpful. Because I did, from the start, I used a good thread, made sure it was threaded correctly, viewed the DVD etc. So Far it's working GREAT! I've been running around the house looking for items to mend!
