dime DESIGNS IN MACHINE EMBROIDERY Snap Hoop Monster for Bernina (260 x 400mm) Magnetic Hoop for

When I first received this product I was very excited. It made doing my machine quilting so much easier. I did notice right away that the mechanism to hook up to the embroidery unit seemed a little flimsy but I kept it.Last week while quilting with this hoop, I heard a clunk and noticed my embroidery was off. I stopped the machine and that’s when I noticed that the entire mechanism that attaches to the module was broken. Completely snapped off! It is probably only the fifth quilt I have done using this hoop. I am sure I will get no restitution for this but since it cost me almost 300.00 to purchase I just had to let others know that this piece of equipment may not last as long as you would expect for something this expensive.I was able to finish my quilt using the hoop that came with my machine although it is not as easy to use. I have a bernina 770QE if anyone wants to know.If all DIME magnetic hoop attachment mechanisms are this poorly made, buyer beware! The mechanism is certainly not made to the same specifications as the bernina hooping mechanism. Otherwise it would have been an excellent product.

Only used this hoop about a dozen times before it broke. Clips holding connection on are very small and flimsy.

Love the hoop

So, I got the jumbo hoop made for my Bernina 1st(on sale thankfully as it is ridiculously expensive. The monster hoop has a bigger footprint than I can effectively use on the 770, but I bought it to quilt in the hoop, not necessarily embroidery. Omg I am so in love with it. I am still learning free motion and unbearably suck. Hubby thinks it’s cheating to use embroidery designs and the hoop. It kinda is but it really makes me happy to see a polished end product. I be used it for around 15 baby quilts now and it’s holding up well.

I just got my Sewing machine repaired and I was ready to use my new Monster Hoop that I bought way back in March... I WAS SENT THE WRONG MONSTER HOOP..now I can not return it because it has been too long.. BUYER BE WARE. The photo ..a Bernina Hoop on top and the Monster hoop on the bottom. Not even close!
