Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of SewPro SP-402 QuickStitch Sewing Machine
Customer Review: A terrible waste of money!
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this thinking it would be a great cheap way for me to get started sewing. Bad idea! They get you with the "sample" that they put on every machine to make you think they will all work, but it's just junk. I had my mother and my grandmother (both experts with sewing machines) try to get this machine to thread properly, and nothing. It can't sew on anything except really thick cloth, otherwise it jams and picks up too much thread, making lots of loops and getting tangled up. The worst is they're going to take half of the cost of this back when I return it because I didn't have time to try it until recently. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS CHEAP JUNK! If you really want to get into sewing, pay the extra $40 and get a singer or a WELL made brand. QuikStitch should be ashamed of this incredibly poorly made product.Customer Review: Ideal For Rocket Scientists With Perfect Eyesight
Summary: 1 Stars
What a shame that such a pathetic product is manufactured in this age of technology. First of all, sewing machines have included a little electric light since the 40's. With all of the intricacies of just threading this machine, a light should be required by law.
The instruction book, which was written with rocket scientists in mind, details "loop around at 3:00, then again at 6:00.." You should try to see the miniscule loop positions.
I received the machine today after a week of anticipation, spent 2-1/2 hours of diligently reading and following the instructions, and now I cannot wait until tomorrow to return it.
Customer Review: Machine is temperamental but will work with some tweaking...
Summary: 1 Stars
I followed all of the instructions and, at first, could not get this machine to work in an acceptable manner. Frequently, the upper stitch would not connect with the lower (bobin) stitch. I tried various tension settings and checked all of the threading many times.
Then, I purchased a better thread for sewing machines and tried adjusting the tension settings again. I was finally able to get the product to sew correctly.
I would still have to say, this product is not for the faint of heart. But, it will work if you are tenacious!

This product is extremely cheap in price, also a cheap proctuct itself. I had a lot of problems with setting up this product and after an hour of trying to set it up I found that a very small peice was broken, so small that I could barely see it but played a very big part in how it sewed. The sellers would not refund my shipping for it and I would have to pay to ship it back, which I did not think it was worth the hassle. I bought a very nice one, Project Runway Special Edition, and it took me less than 10 min. to set up, very good stitching.Customer Review: You get what you pay for

Perhaps even the Hello Kitty sewing machine would have been better. I was raised on my mother's Singer and now use my mother-in-law's Singer. I decided to purchase a simple sewing machine just for easy hemming. After one pair of pants hemmed, this machine was unable to recover from the trauma of one job. I truly believe I did everything as instructed in the manual and the instructional DVD to no avail, and I'm not even a novice sewer. I don't think I can hand this down to my daughter to learn about sewing.
