Very loud, my daughter is still pretty afraid of it. It works pretty well. I didn’t really expect it to sew. I’m happy the safety features are legit though!Does not work and goes through batteries within 30 mins. Not as described. Trying to return and its a negotiation battle from the seller. I am yet to receive return instructions. What happened to easy return from Amazon?Made cheap.It did not work straight out of the boxProduct arrived almost 6 weeks late. Once opened I could tell it was poorly made, very cheap and doesn't work efficiently. Spools of thread won't stay in their holder, the draw was jammed and it appeared as if it was used.IT BROKE THE FIRST TIME MY GRANDDAUGHTER TRIED TO USE IT,.....IT IS NOW IN THE TRASHThis product is so bad! I bought this as a present for my daughter. She was happy that she sew with me but that only led to disappointment. When you press the pedal the whole machine stops working and the three keeps on getting stuck. On top of all this it is sooo loud. This was truly a disappointment.No instructions were included. How does it work????!!Not impressed. I’m 29 and had a hard time using it to show my 5 year old how it works. There is no pedal control being learned as the cord for the foot pedal is only 12 inches long, so you have to use your hand.I got this so my 5 and my 7 year old would be ready to get a real sewing machine for their next birthday but sadly I’m going to have to let them use my $1,000.00 machine to learn off of
