Simple And Efficient! - Myla, May 01, 2008

I needed a sewing machine to hem my jeans quick! Needless to say, I didn't have one so I went out and got this one because it was pink and didn't cost a fortune! Besides the fact that it was cute, it did the job very well. So glad I made this purchase.

If you are a professional however, you may want to look for something else. I have had few experiences with a sewing machine and am still learning to use the many stitch functions. For those who are like me and looking for something basic but does what it's supposed to do and a little more, this is perfect!

What I love about it is the automatic bobbin winding system. Never had that luxury before. What I didn't like about it was the slideout accessory holder -- I would have prefered one that actually holds all the accessories without having to put it in a pouch because unless it's in a bag or pouch, everything would have come out as soon as you start sliding away. I guess I had one with that benefit and it felt like I downgraded otherwise, this product works great and is recommended.

I love this machine! - J. Winckler, Apr 03, 2008

I haven't sewn since high school, and this machine makes it super easy. I love the automatic needle threader. Winding a bobbin and switching out thread takes just a minute or two. Super easy to thread the machine. Super easy to insert the bobbin. (I did have a problem with thread tension until I figured out I wasn't bringing the thread around the right way). Great stitch options. I've been thinking of new projects just so I can use it more! I will say I'm not a professional seamstress, so I can't account for the "quality" of the stitches. But they work great for what I need!

awesome! - Kelly M. Fleek, Jan 19, 2008

The brother sowing machine is the best you can buy in my opinion. The instructions are clear and easy to read so even a new comer to sowing can learn how to use it. The sowing machine is flawless and awesome.

Didn't like this machine - Sehra Han, Jan 18, 2008

I didn't like this machine at all and had to return it. The seams were never straight. The reverse button would never go straight back but always at an angle. The tension was never right. It kept giving me bubbling on the seams. I'm a very experienced sewer and I tried adjusting several things to make it work better but it never did.
I would not reccomend this product to anyone. And to make matters even worse, it's been 2 weeks since I sent this product back to Jo-Anne's and I still have not gotten a refund or even an answer as to when I can get a refund.
Poor product and service all around.

Very pleased, great machine ! - Leah G., Jan 05, 2008

Having only rudimentary experience sewing and not having used a machine in years it was a pleasure using this Brother machine. It is easy to thread, fill bobbin and works great on a variety of material.
