80%I have used this Elna for some 3/4 years. It is a good machine but I have had trouble with stitch length. Resolved when I took it apart and found cotton around a peg attached to stitch length arm.It has a good range of built in stitches and they all work well. Threading the needle is a bit awkward for my large fingers. Has a removable table so that turn ups can be sewn easily.

100%This is a lovely machine.I sew clothes as well as free machine embroidery. Acu feed works well. Attatching it the first couple of time is a little awkward, but not too much. Extensin table is fab. I also dont find the flat bed to be a problem. I enjoy this machine and I hope you will too.

Review by Rita Crick
80%I really love the quality and simplicity of use that this machine offers. I have one question, is there a repositionable hoop available for this machine? I would love to embroider borders without changing hoops so much. I would appreciate any information on this question. Thank you Rita Crick

Also living in Northern Ireland, we usually have delays and a lot of added expense for delivery, but not the case here, Fair prices ,Fast delivery. I will certainly recommend your company to all my friends. Many Thanks

100%I love the way this machine embroiders. It is an easy machine to learn how to work with or without the instruction manual. I feel like I am getting better results with the 350e than I did with my Pfaff (which I am keeping). I researched embroidery machines before I bought this and I am glad I chose this one.

Review by Cass Quilts
100%I love the ease of threading. The many features of this machine are wonderful. Being able to create my own stitches with the My Custom Stitch feature as well as being able to combine the different classes of stitches to expand the stitch capabilities is a super plus while heirloom sewing and quilting. The pattern stitches come out wonderful. You do need to read the manual and follow the instructions for perfect pattern sewing by using a stabilizer geared to the type of fabric being used. I have found most imperfections or problems encountered are due to user error or lack of reading the manual and following recommendations. The embroidery is also wonderful. I advise any new person starting out embroidering to learn as much as possible before judging your machine. There is a lot involved in embroidering properly but once learned it is very addicting indeed.
