Twenty-five stitches, six presser feet, a built-in needle threader, a drop-in bobbin and feed dogs that lower for free-motion work, all on dials rather than a screen. The thing that actually separates it from the Joy and the Zest below it is the buttonhole: the Zeal sews a proper one-step buttonhole, sized to your button, in a single pass.
