I don't have this machine but I have had a few sewing students who've had it. I think it's a great machine for a young girl, it's not too advanced, but it'll still grow with her. The only complaint I've heard about the machine is the lack of accessories and the bobbin system. It may be a bit confusing for a young beginner, but with your help I'm sure your daughter will get the hang of it.
