By: Antonia on 20 August 2022Wow oh wow what a baby she is. Alec from Echidnah advised me all the way. He helped me so very much I wouldn’t have bought this without his wonderful help. This machine is just a dream, I have had only two weeks now but I’m loving the excellent quality of this baby and don’t get me started on the wifi and the my design centre. Best advice I ever got. Thanks Mr Alec.
