Simplicity SA200 Pioneer II
by Customer at November 23rd, 2002
I purchased this for Christmas for my adult daughter who had previously never shown much interest in sewing, but had mentioned recently that she might liked to have a machine for home decorating projects, i.e. curtains, pillows or whatever. I was basically looking for something inexpensive and simple for the occasional craft project and mending and this one seemed to fit the bill (although I am sure it would be fine for more frequent use and more complicated projects as well!) I had looked at another machine that was $$$ less but rejected it immediatley when I realized it did not have a treadle to make it stop/go with your foot - it had a hand switch on the machine for that which did not appeal to me at all - sometimes you do need both hands to guide the fabric or whatever, plus reviews of that product pronounced it to be a hunk of junk! This one does have the foot-treadle, and I did set up the machine to try it out and it worked great and was just what I was looking for.
