Innovis A65 sewing machine

Excellent, my old one (30 plus years) was just not robust enough anymore. This machine glides over fabric, especially for heavy upholstery work . No more snags! Took a while to get used to the more modern set up but found easy to follow. Also a lot lighter to carry. Over all quality very good and a pleasure to use.

Great for beginners. Lots of functions. I love that it threads itself.

An excellent well specified machine. works perfectly for all types of stich. Excellent well above average needle threader, a super range of speeds & great value.

This is a great machine for the price. Its has lots of features that make sewing easy. I like that its got a feature that cuts the thread you don't need scissors. I can't fault thus machine.

Best sewing machine I have bought so far, would highly recommend.

I own several sewing machines including a Bernina as my main machine but wanted something lighter to take to my sewing group. This machine is fairly lightweight but packs a punch in terms of ability and features. It has a fantastic auto needle threader which is fool proof and a better design than my modern expensive Bernina and it also has an auto thread cutter which I find invaluable. I don’t need hundreds of fancy stitches as I have an embroidery machine for that purpose but there are enough fun stitches to prettify an otherwise ordinary project. I made some Tote bags recently using curtain fabric and it sewed effortlessly over some fairly thick seams where the straps are attached. Remember to go slowly over any especially bulky bits and it will trundle along quite happily.

Took me a while to get used to it as always gad the old type of machine. Lots of bells and whistles to get used to. Very sturdy, I don't find the threading that easy, can't get on with the threader so always thread manually but it's getting easier the more I use it. Machine not too heavy. A bit dissappointed with the cover which doesn't clip in place just sits over the machine and leaves the citton spool exposed, so will probably buy a bag to store it in. Not yet used all the attachments but very pleased with bit so far, ideal for those who are more than a beginner but not that experienced.

I upgraded to this machine from an entry level Brother and I am so happy with my new purchase! It is much smoother and quieter than my old one, it has lots of different stiches and the automatic needle threader is great! I would recommend this machine to anyone.
