I was just looking for a small machine that could attach Velcro, is this strong enough? Most fabrics are lightweight.

Yes I believe it would do fine on Velcro with light weight fabrics. The zig zag stitch should do the job.

I believe it would be way to heavy for that. I tried velcro initially, and it did not hold. I ended up using the velcro PLUS some screws to hold them in. This has worked well. I hope this helps.

Yes. The velcro is down the vertical middle. The pad can be turned so the velcro faces out and does not snag clothes.

I wouldn't know. I didn't have the need to use any Velcro. Mine hasn't moved around at all. I love mine - it's sturdier than others I've seen on the market.

I found this to be really weak. The velcro works loose very easily, so I would say 'no, probably not'. Try to find a traditional leather one.

I Have Sewn On And Off Since I Was A Kid, And Sold My Old Machine When I Moved. I Bought This To Make Simple Repairs As Well As Pillow Covers, Etc. IT Is A Fine Machine For Learning Control, it Does Not Have A Lot Of Power. As Long As You Are Not In A Rush You Will Be Fine.

No, this would be a great fabric to use. My regular old Brother sewing machine had no problems sewing this material

I don't think velcro eould work because it's quite heavy when you put your brooms and mops on it. Not quite sure, but from what i remember the back was hallow.

It works fine for light duty work. If you are stapling into a hard material you have to hold it down firmly or the staple won't sink in all the way.

It is a small machine, but I think it would be able to handle that, provided you are just trying to get the seam worked.

I have had very good success, especially in machine applique in quilting. Not sure about apparel unless you are applique work. Don't use it for seams. It's for decorative purposes.

Get some heavy duty, low mesh sticky back Velcro, Comes in many shapes, sizes & even a cut-to-size sheet, for like 3.00 at Walmart or here on amazon, & stick it to the backing pad that's on this machine. Same results.

Yes, it's velcro so you can adjust the tightness as needed. It does have a tendency to come off easily, however. I used it for weightlifting, but it simply would not stay on. If you want it for moving objects at work it could work, I suppose.

I got this as a portable iron to take to quilt classes and retreats for use next to my sewing machine. It is light weight, and glides just fine. The steam ability is minimal to moderate, I would say, nothing like my full-sized Rowenta. The cord doesn't particularly get in the way, no more than any other. My big disappointment is that it doesn't get as hot as I would hope. But for small pressing tasks next to your sewing machine, such as pressing the seams of block pieces, I would say that it is a good value for the price, and up to the job. But for big pressing jobs, such as trying to press an entire piece of bolt-wide fabric, this would not be the best iron.

Definitely yes for light, loose fitting clothes (pajamas probably fine). Heavy clothes, like blue jeans, that fit tight maybe not. I've been happy with the device, but it's not "heavy duty".

That's exactly what I used it for. No sewing machines here... Just needed good thread for mending little hem tears, etc.

The clothes hangar is very light-weight, so can be used on a tension rod that is secure. It weighs about the same as a heavy plastic hangar. I use it for gloves, socks, underwear, etc. I wouldn't hang pants or coats on it -- that would make it heavy.
