Is it a good tool for basting quilts?

Yes - just know that the taks are small and you'll spend a lot of time pulling them out later - I would suggest using a staple puller the slide under kind that catch the staple/tak - then go over the quilt again and look for all the ends that don't fall out. I loved it for my larger quilts

Not sure if I can help. I bought it to do my cutting for quilts. So far I have had school books piled on it. It is a sturdy table and well designed. I know I am very pleased with it thus far. You wont be disappointed.

I've used this machine on several fabric weights and it has been great. As long as you have the right needle and thread tension correct, it will be a work horse for you.

Yes, I've been working on a queen size quilt for a few months and have left the material in there for days. It still works as good as new.

I'm a quilter and love it! Not to worry, it's not too much steam. And you can adjust it if you want, although I always use it full strength. Just remember (as with any iron) to press, not iron, your blocks open.

I've made several quilts with this machine. There was no problem stitching over multiple seams when machine quilting or through layers of quilt top, batting, backing and binding when finishing the edges. I find it dependable and easy to use.

I used the planer to help flatten walls prior to applying drywall on a new home construction project. I did not use the dust collector due to the high volume of material ejected from the port. I did find this to be an amazing and useful tool for this application.

I use it for quilting, too. I just have to take it from vertical to horizontal every 2-3 minutes to keep it hot and ready. Hope that helps you.

Yes it will. Lower the feeder feet and use a quilting foot. I do have to say it works better with smaller projects than bigger ones. However, if you can do your quilt in segments, quilt them first and join them later it does fine. There are videos on youtube that show you how to do this.

Yes it does work well. The burst is strong and I use the function often when pressing pieces when quilting.

I don't know. I don't have any quilts to iron, but it works perfectly as an iron.

Hi there. While I can't compare them, I have had my Curvey for most two years now and love it! I have sewn many quilts with mine!

On the felt that I used yes! I tried it on some netting and it does well. To cut fabric, the only thing I can see that would hinder it is if you do not have the fabric down in a manner not to allow the blade to move well. I have made a quilt using the Disappearing Nine Patch. I know after I sew the nine patch back together for second or third or fourth cuts, The problem is the build up the layers of fabric and thread at the seams. That is why, I say with confidence, as long as you have your fabric down correctly on a good cutting board there should be no problem. I have had no problems. On the felt that I used yes!

Although I haven't personally tried it for quilting I would recommend this thread. It's great for the price and I haven't had any issues with it in my machine.

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.

Yes. I use it for very small cross stitching on black cloth. I think it works great.
