"East to use!" 2010-04-26
By Sharon Cadaret (Mojave, CA)
I had a $1200 Pfaff I bought 25 yrs ago, and wore it out! I wanted a new sewing machine, but didn't want to spend a lot. I knew that Brother machines were highly rated, and so I decided on a Brother. It was scarey buying a machine I had not personaly seen demonstrated and tried out, but being disabled and living a 40 mi from the stores made it necessary. With grandchildren now, I thought that it would be fun to have some embroidery functions on it, but didn't need a lot of fancy things. For $499 I got a really nice machine. As noted by other reviews, the manual is very easy to understand-Yeah! Even if you aren't comfortable with computerized functions, this is very easy to use. I have not done embroidery yet, but I made a dress with 9 buttons down the front, and would normally dread making button holes, but it was so easy and the button holes turned out perfectly! This sewing machine makes sewing enjoyable again! This is a great sewing machine for anyone, and you get a lot for the $$$!


I LOVE THIS SEWING MACHINE!


"Sewing is now fun!" 2010-04-26
By M. Neely (mississippi)
I have been sewing on a Singer for a few years now. Just stuff for around the house. Pillows, curtains, etc. I have been doing toddler clothes for the last year and was ready to have a machine that would monogram. Sewing is so much more fun and easy with this machine! I am finishing outfits sooooo much faster! The embroidery option is wonderful and easy to learn.


The 5 fonts that come with the machine are fine, the embroidery and applique patterns are not really anything that I would want or use on a regular basis. I hate that I have to buy the Brother software ($115) to get really cute appliques and fonts converted to my machine but that is just the way it is.


Overall, very easy to use and a great price point.

  
"NEED TO BE AN EXPERT SEAMSTRESS" 2010-03-08
By Samantha
If you are an expert seamstress you will enjoy this machine. My major concern was I was missing a part & could get absolutely NO response from Brother. Made the MAJOR mistake of waiting too long to contact J&R Music & Computor World & now they are CHARGING me a 15% RESTOCKING FEE!!! I didn't keep the boxes (was a Xmas present) so it cost me $99 to mail it back!!!!! MAKE SURE THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT & YOU'RE SURE YOU'RE UP TO A MAJOR CHANGE IN SEWING BEFORE YOU ORDER!!


"Not My Brother" 2010-01-28
By Eileen C. Pluta (Wyncote, PA United States)
As others said it started out promising. Then the silver prongs that the cord plugs into went into the machine I would have to pull them out with pliers to plug it in. I was in the middle of Christmas sewing so I couldn't take it in for repair. Every time the cord was touched it would disconnect, very annoying in the middle of an embroidery project. I took it in the 23rd of December and still do not have it back, January 28th. They are waiting for parts. I would never recommend this machine or any Brother.

  
"Renewed my interest in sewing!" 2009-12-08
By Timberleaf (Oregon Cascades)
This machine is just what I needed to replace my 1970s machine. It is perfect for my everyday projects with embroidery as a bonus to broaden my sewing skills. Compact enough to store on a bookcase shelf. Easy to operate and the manual was clear enough to get me off to a good start.
