Crucial Things to Consider Before Buying a Sewing Machine
Buying your sewing machine can feel like a daunting task. There are so many alternatives available in the market for beginners as well as for professional sewing lovers. 
There are some pros and cons which you must consider, while you choose where to purchase your sewing machine from.
If you buy a machine online, you will have many options to choose from. You can read sewing machine reviews from those who have bought specific machines and check if they are satisfied with their purchase.
Buying from a dealer has other benefits. You can use the machine before you buy it. 
Often the dealers will provide sewing classes and do repairs and maintenance. They're available to answer In case you have questions.
They explain the features of a sewing machine in detail and can also show you available attachments. But before you buy a machine based on those advantages be sure and ask. 
Here are a few things you want to consider when buying a sewing machine.
1. Get a Quality Machine with Basic Features
Universal pressure lets your machine automatically adjust for materials of varying thickness. This will keep your machine from jamming with thicker materials.
Try out this in the shop and see how it works. If purchasing online see what buyers state. 
2. What Stitch Options You Want
Some basic stitches are.-
Zig Zag -- Used when you need a finished look for raw edges.
Stretch straight -- This is the stitch to use to sew anything.  
Button hole -- Button hole option will save you lots of grief in the event that you ever need to create button holes for clothes or other projects like shower curtains.
Other stitches will be required based on your sewing project but these are the basics you will need.
3. What Type of Machine You Want
Some machines can have features added at a later date figure out if that's possible. Though the extras are nice if you want them, by getting a machine that is too
4. The Weight and Size of the Machine 
Even portable machines can vary in weight so try lifting it or at least check the weight before purchasing online. 
If you plan to only use your machine in a place that is designated at home, then a heavier machine may represent a better quality machine.
5. Budget
It would be nice if you could simply buy exactly the machine you want with no worry. 
This isn't often the case.
When searching for a machine check the money you can spend. This can leave you weighing pros and cons better.

Find out the amount of the warranty and what it covers. Ask if you can get your machine serviced locally or will you need to mail it somewhere.
