My first Brother machine

I have only had my Brother machine for a few short weeks. I purchased it as a backup machine and also to take to quilting retreats as it only weighs about 10 1/2 pounds. It saves me from having to take my heavy machine out of my sewing table. So far I am quite happy with the performance of this machine. Not having ever owned a Brother, I was a little intimidated on learning a new machine, but once I got started, it was very easy to thread and wind bobbins. It sews very smoothly. I will mostly use it for quilting, but like the idea of the decorative stitches for anything else I will be sewing.
A great sewing machine that I'd buy again. Even stitching on even heavy fabrics. Easy to thread. Nice collection of decorative stitches, it will write text and good collection of presser feet. My only complaint is that reversal of stitches is somewhat difficult, i.e., it does not always reverse. But for the price it is a winner.
I am just getting back to sewing now that I am retired. So, I've started in with simple projects, but I am already greatly enjoying the ease and quality of this machine.
Overall I am happy so far with my CS7205. It is replacing a Brother Project Runway Innovis 40 that I loved. I still struggle with the needle threading feature, so difficult to get right each time but this feature is important to my old eyes. I have many more of the stitches to experiment with but I am determined to keep at it. The machine is lightweight and I like the many stitch and speed options. I believe it's a good value for the price on a new, unused machine.
