On the front loaders there are some with oscillating hooks that go back and forth that do have more problems with jamming than the front loaders that have rotary hooks. The rotary hook goes around and around and not back and forth. I hope this makes sense, but when sewing you can watch how the bobbin performs..either back and forth or just round and round. I have noticed that my top loading seem to not have the "oomph" needed for some heavy material like my front loaders. I don't know why this should make a difference but it just seems that way to me. It is always nice to have a machine that also has a foot pressure control to help in heavy to light fabric feeding.
