Customer Review: not bad for under $40
Summary: 3 Stars
It took me 20 minutes to set up the machine and thread the bobbin and needle; the instruction booklet and pictures were excellent. I had no problem sewing a decent stitch on the sample thin piece of cloth they provided on my 1st try (I'm a novice), but had considerably more difficulty trying to hem a pair of twill jeans. Possible issues: (1) material may have been too thick, and I was trying to stitch 3 layers together (2) you have to go fairly slow or it won't put down a stitch, (3) tension issues? So it's not perfect, but given that having pants hemmed in my town costs $15+, this is what I needed. Given what I've read of the other $100 machines, I'm not sure they're any better -- if you want something better, I'm guessing you have to go up to $150 or $200.Customer Review: amazing little machine

I have been sewing since I was a little girl - probably 10 or so and I am now 60!!! This machine reminded me of my first machine as a child......it stitches a nice stitch and is easy to thread and wind the bobbin. It does have some problems with the tension and they can be ordered this to make a lap quilt for my father for his 86th birthday - it worked amazingly well for a $35 sewing machine - it is a mending machine it says and did a nice job on a small project.....the instructional DVD was not needed by me and still was very informative and would be to someone who has never used a sewing machine......have already told many about the mighty little Sew Pro 402!!Customer Review: Getting it to work
Summary: 3 Stars
Got this for a 10-year-old, who is doing fine with it now that it seems to be working properly. (She is able to follow the instructions, thread the machine, etc.)
We had the same trouble as CK, after following all instructions and watching the instructional DVD. Several experienced sewers tried to tweak the machine, but it would work about every other time. Tried calling the toll-free support number, but could only leave messages. (I hope someone will call back.) Finally (so far) it seems that we might have been trying to feed the material under the needle too quickly. Once we learned to guide it very gently without rushing it, the machine seems to be working fine.
