I bought this machine with a USB port. I don't know if I am dense or what, but it took me a while to figure out how to use it. Once I figured out the embroidery part, it was ok. Then it started acting up. The fabric got cut on the teeth and had to be cut out. I had to take the bobbing mechanism completely apart to untangle all the thread caught in the bobbin. On another ocassion, it indicated that the embroidery was completed, when it was only half way done. Putting the embroidery foot is a bit difficult to position and sometimes it falls, due to the vribrations of the machine. I dont know why I have broken 4 embroidery needles in less than a week. I am still trying to figure that one out. I will probably keep it because I am not planning to do much embroidery and I don't want to spend 2k on an embroidery machine. The sewing part works fine. I suppose is a crab shoot, when the embroidery part works, it does a nice job, but when it goes bad, it really goes bad.

The Brother SE350 is a great computerized sewing machine. You are getting a great machine for the price. I have researched many sellers and even ebay for used and new machines of this model. Ultimately, I decided the best deal was to go with a brand new machine from Amazon, with free shipping. This put the machine at a cheaper price than Wal-Mart! Also, I feel better about my purchase by going with a new machine because of the manufacturer's warranty. Amazon shipped the item quickly and securely.

This was a gift for my wife and here is her review:
I am no professional, but felt like I had outgrown my very basic machine. Being quite budget conscious, I couldn't even be tempted by the Vikings and Berninas of the world so when I found this I thought it was a perfect blend of features and price. I like that I can experiment with monogramming and embroidery as well. The auto threader and auto cutter are awesome! So easy to use and so convenient. I've already purchased the PED-basic cord so that I could download more (free!) designs as well as more fonts.
So far, so good on this machine!

The machine is just wonderful - for the price you want to pay it's the best deal of both sewing and embroidery you can get. Although the machine arrived in an open box, it works great and I have never had any problems with it. For somebody who has used a sewing machine before, this one is extremely easy to learn. In addition, this Brother's creation will be a dream for those who used to work on simple mechanical machines. Some its functions make your sewing life so much easier!And the embroidery unit is so pleasant and easy to work with. Moreover, you can download quite a few designs from Brother website for free!Although you still will need stabilizers, software, threads, more bobbins,and of course feet and designs, it is really a sweet deal for the money it costs.
