              Took machine in that needed feeder checked needle threader and cutter checked and cleaned. Took 3 months checking on it frequently parts not in had to talk to mechanic a few times. Bought machine new same one my friend bought same day she has had no problems. Had been getting cleaning and maintenance from *************** store but thats another story. When I first talked to Machs Iv he stated evidently you dont know how to sew cause there is so much wrong and need several new parts. After 3 months got it and took it home would not thread I asked to have it looked at again told mechanics would be gone the month. So I asked please just check it now. I asked why my guarantee did not cover the parts was told under normal wear it would. I take care of my machine. **** was over $500. Plus. ****************************************************** asI dont drive. Still does not feed well stitch length not the same especially if Im L position as with sewing zippers. Thread tangles up inside or machine breaking thread design stitches not clear even with stabilizer they kept suggesting I trade it in. Cant afford that nor $500+ bills health has kept me from going back

              I took a sewing machine in to be serviced . I received a call back a few days later that the machine was like The Tin Man and needed oiled. I picked it up Dec. 9, 2021 and paid $139.00. The first time I used the machine the reverse button did not operate. I had been told that the machine was totally operational. I took it back after calling and explaining that it had been serviced. I was told the machine was too old and parts for it had not been available for 15 years. The salesman then offered a trade in toward a used machine and I would have owed $200.00. He then showed me a battery operated mop for no reason. I feel that on my initial visit to the store I should have been informed that parts were no longer available for my machine and the salesman should have declined to even look at it. I have called the owner of Vac and Sew twice and my calls have not been returned. I have been taken for $139.00.
