hookitt 0 #2 December 27, 2008 I have the Consew version and it works well. 100 bucks is nothing. If it works, pick it up.My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JerryBaumchen 1,048 #3 December 27, 2008 Hi likes, I bought one of those a couple of years ago from some retail outfit in Chicago. It would not sew for &%#@. It was a Chinese mfd machine. Ended up sending it back. As long as you do not tackle anything heavy it should be well worth it. Let us know how it works out, JerryBaumchen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
councilman24 36 #4 December 29, 2008 The table and motor are worth $100. The really cheap chinese knockoffs are crap. Use for a boat anchor. The 'name brand' knockoff probably come out of the same factory with better parts. If you want a good one find a japanese made earlier one.I'm old for my age.
