I have one and it is rubbish! I have the JML small white one that cost about £40 when it came out but is now about £10.
I expect it might be OK for very small simple projects but I tried just to hem plain fabric curtains with mine and managed to break the needle several times before giving up.....0 -
I have one too, and it is soooooo noisy! maybe better looking in the charity shops for a second hand full size one, or ebay or local ads.

They are rather rubbish. You'd be better off buying a bigger one. Usually lots on eBay, or Aldi/Lidl have had them in the past for about £40. I bought one of the Lidl ones (a Delta) and it's very good.0

Our experience is very similar to above - waste of money. It is better to spend a lot more and get ones which last longer than few weeks.
