I bought the Singer Futura CE-250 because I was interested in learning how to embroider but I wasn't interested in spending a fortune. To me, this machine is a great value as it is built very solidly and sews excellent right out of the box it came in. I found that the sewing sensors are very good at letting you know when something is wrong but it did take me a few tries to get used to putting the thread through them.

If you are new to sewing and machine embroidery you should realize that the Singer needs to be hooked upto a computer while embroidering. The software will let the sewing machine know about the colors and I found that an old computer would work just fine. Mine is several years old and handles this task with no problems. Just something to consider if you don't already have one that you can use with the Futura.

From what I could tell, the main difference between the 250 and 350 Futura sewing machines is the software. If you are going to create your own embroidery designs then the basic software on the CE-250 might not cut it. You can upgrade but perhaps you should just buy the 350 instead. I am confident that with a little practice using both the machine and the software I will be creating the embroidery stitches that I have wanted to for many years. And I am having a lot of fun learning.

I am quite happy with the Singer Futura and would recommend it to others who enjoy sewing and other embroidery projects. I haven't found any faults with the machine and the reviews I read were quite positive, even on their other models.
