Abysmal. Do not buy the Euro-Pro Dressmaker 998B. It is marketed as "easy to use" but it is not. Even looking on line for troubleshooting for threading the thing, I could not manage to get the bottom bobbin to properly pick up. My wife managed to straighten it out for me after three hours of poking around.
I cannot use it by myself. It is too complicated to thread. I enjoy sewing by hand and had hoped that it would expiate the process. It just made me yell and curse a lot. The...

I was having the same problem and here is what I found on the internet on 50Plus Discussion Forums Dressmaker II- Sewing machine regarding the bobbin, from a man called Campy. I have to say that I played and followed what he said and it did work, I will still try to do it over and over. I hope this will help you;
I had the same problem at first.
Here is how you do it.

The thread into the...

I received this Euro-Pro Dressmaker sewing machine 4 years ago. It works well. I have made fabulous craft products with it. However, the threading is very complicated. Although it runs well I am very, very pleased to say that I will be getting a new sewing machine very soon. (read more)

I felt like a loser trying to figure out how to use the Euro-Pro Dressmaker 998B Sewing machine! I am very old, and I do not have a life, so I wanted something to fill it.
It took me away from more important things, like looking for a date on the internet. I am available and have this stupid sewing machine to prove it.

This Euro-Pro Dressmaker 998B Sewing Center doesn't thread well in fact I wish I would have never purchased it. They need to figure out a way to allow you to thread the bottom bobbin I have tons of sewing to do and I can't do it because of this stupid machine! (read more)

Euro-Pro Dressmaker 998B Sewing Center - The bobbin doesn't thread easily.
The tension is too tight and thread always breaks.
Not user friendly.

My daughter recently puchased this machine at a yard sale. It was never used by the original owner because she could not figure it out. Unfortunately for us we do not have a user's manual. I have been sewing for over 20 years and I couldn't figure out how to use the bobbin. After reading the reviews I do not want to have to order and pay for one. If anyone has the instructions and could email me, I would really appreciate it. My daughter desperately wants to learn how to sew on her own machine.
