Musical - 4½ Inch Antique Portable Sewing Machine 'Buttons & Bows' Review

Musical - 4½ Inch Antique Portable Sewing Machine 'Buttons and Bows'
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this for my wife who is an avid seamstress. It turned out to be a nice little item that is exactly as described here. It plays a nice tune, Buttons and Bows, and has a semi-operating sewing machine that turns along with the tune. I did notice that the workmanship left a little to be desired. There were some minor scratches on the sewing machine and some of the screws that retain the music maker were over tightened and left an indentation in the wood. Not enough to really detract from the overall impression, but noticeable. Overall I give it four stars - a nice item, almost heirloom quality but for workmanship issues. Interestingly, the provider would not ship the item until I let them know that it was a music box and not a working sewing machine! Whatever! I like it. My wife likes it. You will like it too.

BRATZ (REAL) Designed Sewing Machine Review

My daughter received this from her aunt. We followed the directions included in the package and found several problems with the item. (1) Once the machine is threaded (according to the directions) the thread feels so tight that it threatens breaking when you pull it through the needle... (2) The foot pedal pulls the fabric through the machine backwards.....(3) There seems to be nothing in the bottom portion of the machine which catches the thread to make a complete seam, in other words...the needle pulls the thread in and out of the fabric without leaving any thread connected to the fabric.
I am completely frustrated with this product and would love to hear that I am just using it incorrectly or that I have a malfunctioning machine. My daughter was VERY disappointed since she had looked so forward to "really" sewing on her own. Has anyone else had any experience with this product?

Thread and Bobbin Kit- 64 Pieces Review

Thread and Bobbin Kit- 64 Pieces
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you expected a large quantity of thread for under $5, I've got a bridge just for you! But if you are in need of a lot of colors for small projects, then this is a deal with 32 different colors to choose from. As far as the bobbins, remember that some sewing machines are quite selective as to what works, so these generic bobbins might not work.

Michley LSS-202 Lil' Sew & Sew Mini 2-Speed Sewing Machine Review

We received this little sewing machine yesterday, and I'm delighted with it! I was able to quickly mend a damaged quilt and it sewed through all of the layers without trouble.
The design is just like a large machine, with the same thread path, and with care, it sews a simple straight stitch just fine! If the thread breaks, check the tension, and make sure the presser foot is down when you are sewing, just like on a large machine. It has features that I didn't expect, such as the ability to take full size spools of thread, as well as bobbins, and it even has a bobbin winder! It runs on either 4 AA batteries or an included DC adapter. Since it's made of plastic, and not as sturdy as my full sized machine, I plan to treat it with extra care so it will last.
Excellent for quick mending.

Providing perfect stitch control, this mini sewing machine comes in handy for anything from silk to denim. The machine's user-friendly design offers a top drop-in bobbin for easy threading, automatic thread rewind, a simple on/off control button, and an over-sized button for setting the speed from low to high. Choose either the hand switch or the included foot pedal to start. The unit makes a nice gift for any craft enthusiast, novice or on-the-go sewer, or college student with an eye for fashion. Accessories include four bobbins, one foot pedal, one needle, and a threader. The mini sewing machine uses DC 6-volt power and measures approximately 7-2/3 by 4-1/2 by 8-2/7 inches.

I bought this product to surprise my kids. I am lucky I tried it out before they came home. The cylinder would ice up and not spin. That would cause the teeth of the gears to strip. It never worked ONCE! The only bright side is I can take it back before my kids find out I bought it.

The glass container really sets this blender apart. It doesn't stain, it's easier to clean then plastic and just plain looks classier. Also, I've always had trouble with frozen drink mixes (the bottom blends, but the top part never moves down to the bottom). I always thought I didn't do it right. I never have that problem with this blender -- cheers to a well blended margarita!

Although this box was super cute and the exact model that my grandmother had owned, I was disappointed by its size and how the drawer didn't really open the way I imagined it would.
