Elna Mini

A most amazing first sewing machine – It's light yet sturdy on the table, sews straight and zigzag stitiches like a dream, and is SO easy to teach a little child to sew on. Brilliant for children who are keen to sew! It's not a toy machine it's a young child's first machine and is so easy to pick up and put away.  Show details

Elna Mini Sewing machine – Purchased this for my 7 year old grand-daughter to learn to sew on. She loves it! It is a low geared machine so doesn't go too fast for little fingers. She made a little bag with a strap, with Nans' help, and was so proud of it. Excellent machine

Perfect for 9yo daughter – The machine is perfect for my daughter as it's easy to use but my only concern will be with the foot control pedal as it's very plastic looking and feel that it will break with long use. I hope if it breaks I can purchase a replacement pedal and maybe one that's if a better sturdier quality. Compact size, lightweight , Foot control pedal very flimsy
