Pfaff Smarter 260c Sewing Machine and Accessories

Sewing on this machine has made it even easier. Happy about my purchase.

I was quite excited to get going with my Pfaff Smarter 260C but it was doomed from the start.I stupidly bought it from an Italian dealer and when it arrived it didn’t work and came with an Italian handbook which was as much good as a fire in an igloo.Credit to them, they suggested it was the adapter and posted a new one out with a replacement English instruction book which took another week to arrive.I eventually got going and was quite impressed at first, although I did find it a bit flimsy. Within two weeks a bit fell off and a few days later it started clunking like an old car engine every time I sewed more than two layers of cotton fabric.Enough was enough. It’s on its way back to Italy now and I have bought an upgraded more sturdy machine in the UK.I guess I was just unlucky and got a rogue machine. I’m sure the 206C will suit some stitchers, but I think it is more an entry level machine. I found it far too lightweight and pretty flimsy for the money.

it arrived on time but on opening the box the power cord looked like it had been already used as it was not in a bag or cable tied. Plugged it in any way, the lights came on but the foot pedal did not work. So returned
