Household sewing machines are divided into two types; electric household sewing machines and old-fashioned pedal sewing machines. When purchasing an electric sewing machine, first check whether its counterweight is reasonable. Only a reasonable counterweight will provide certain stability at a certain sewing speed. Another option is that the frame is made of metal, and the shuttle part must also be made of metal. Third, choose one with low noise. Only low noise can reflect the rigorous structure of the machine. Advantages of electric sewing machines: relatively complete functions. Disadvantages: The ability to absorb thick thickness is slightly poor, and it is easy to jump when knitting elastic fabrics, because the needle plate presser foot eye is too elongated. Slightly less adaptable to fabrics. Characteristics of old-fashioned pedal sewing machines: Generally, they have strong ability to absorb thick material, are easy to operate, and are simple to maintain. It has strong adaptability to fabrics and it is not easy to skip stitches when making knitted fabrics because the needle plate holes are relatively small. Disadvantages: The function is too single. When choosing a sewing machine, no matter what brand or brand it is, as long as it meets the above characteristics, it is a good sewing machine! We must be worthy of the money in the hands of the common people! The above is just a personal opinion. The Wick brand is good, with a metal frame and metal shuttle, which is durable and easy to repair. The price is not high at 580 yuan, I recommend it!
