V v good with the machines and reknowned for good repairs. The ladies are lovely, the courses are great, and the machines they have are awesome.

They always give good recommendations for other things like threads etc. V good. Recommend

Please do not take your sewing machine to the coburg centre as he is not helpful at all .
