Janome Pink Lightening Sewing Machine
 

Has anyone purchased one of these machines from Joanne's. On sale for 69 dollars, weighs just 5 pounds. Is it more than just a toy?

I'm guessing for the adult sewist doing anything more than replacing a seam it would be an unhappy experience, mostly because something that light is going to move all over sewing something with any weight and size to it
You could put it in a setdown space or clamp it.

Might be ok for an RV? Doing 1/2 sq triangles or something?
I wouldn't fool with it when you can get some lovely older precomputer machines for 1/2 that if you watch.
Try one out and let us know :) There might be bobbin issues too.

It looks a lot like the sew mini that's in my avatar. It sews fine but it's very lightweight and feels like a toy. I use mine for papercrafting and I love it for that. I wouldn't use it as a quilting machine though.

I can pick it up easily with one finger. lol
