Review by Bex S
This is the first domestic professional machine I have ever owned. I have had it for approximately 1 month now and I am constantly itching to get on it!. It is a lovely machine to use, it feels solid and I have yet to had 1 problem with it. I am a 3rd year BA Fashion student and I use it for dressmaking and finishing. Great features include: The over edge finishing stitches included on this machine which act like an overlocker. The twin needle capability is fantastic on this machine! Very good finish on jersey fabrics. The knee lift and feet supplied with the machine work for all stitch combinations and the instruction manual is very easy to use and flick through. The thread cutter, needle threader and drop needle functions are brilliant time savers especially at 3am the night before a deadline! The choice of button holes available is wonderful and easy to use. I have not used the full range of quilting accessories or stitches yet, as this is not my area of expertise. However, the machine's monograming embroidery is a great tool to make labels for clothing or add details. I can't find a fault with this machine- it is definitely worth the investment and I would recommend to all. One piece of advise- keep the instruction manual close to help with fast change overs with settings and to get to know your machine quickly.

Review by Measha X
This machine was a present for my sister so she is writing the review as I would not know one end of a machine from the other! This machine is excellent, I have not had much time to play but I think I have tried each and every feature out once that it has. The embroidery is exceptional although the built in library is a little small and hard to determine whether it is in cross stitch or satin stitch, quality of either is fab. No foot operation is immediately responsive and brilliant not a feature I have used before. The manual is a god send of a bible and covers every aspect you could possibly want it to. My only point of confusion has been as to the different bobbin cases and when to use them but I have been assured Gutermann thread will only need the standard bobbin case. All in all a fab machine and worth the departure from my 30 year old Bernina and quality of stitch is equal if not better than the Bernina. The huge plus point for me also is that although the machine is robust and stable it is considerably lighter than my Bernina was.

Review by Marje A
I had to order a replacement machine at very short notice. Cannot fault speed of delivery, received within 2 days. Brilliant. Nice simple machine to use. I mainly require a machine for repairs and occasionally I make curtains and blinds. Agree with other comments that its a nice straightforward machine to operate. Also, it being a lightweight machine does not detract from its capability and as also said before, deals with thicker fabrics very well. Early days, but so far , a very good machine and for an excellent price.

Review by Carole Q
I have just started a Patchwork & Quilting class needed a machine I could depend. I bought the Elna to replace a much cheaper one and I'm so glad I did. The Elna is so easy to use, produces beautiful stitches and the needle threader the easest I have ever used. Altogether a joy to use.

Review by Lisa E
Great machine. Very easy to use and quality stitches. Had Brother previous and was pleased with that one too. This one is an upgrade and I am really enjoying all the new features. Sewing machine sales were great to deal with. I had a few questions and changes to my order and they were informative, helpful and prompt to deliver. Would recommend both the machine and the supplier. Thank you
