Good Machine

I had a Singer Quantum for years, and loved it, so I decided to get the CE250 because I wanted to embroider, sew and quilt. It's a great machine; lots of programmed stitches and very easy to embroider with if you hook up to a laptop. The only issues that I have are 1) it is noisy most of the time, even after being oiled and 2) there is very little room in the throat so it's difficult to manuver to change needles and presser feet. Other than that, I'm very happy with it.
Good machine for price

This machine is fairly easy to use, even for beginners. The price is unbeatable by competitors. My only complaint is that it is noisy to sew with and the bobbin thread will tangle on occasion.
