Need larger hoops
on September 18, 2016
Posted by: Trying to learn
Need capability for larger hoops. I love the hat feature and the tiny hoops but I'm limited on larger hoop area needed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Awesome machine

I love my machine. i wish it had multiple colors but for my first embroidery machine I like that I can work the color progression as I go. It gives me creative license. I also find some of the color charts are wrong and so I can correct colors.. I did have an issue with the needle threader because it got caught on a towel binder. I had to have it replaced and had it serviced as well. I feel the needle threader could be located in a better place as it seems to catch easily and you don't realize what is caught till it is too late. Over all I have been very pleased with the versatility and the quality of stitching. I have logged over 70 hrs on my machine in 6 months. I do not have a business, yet but I do a lot for family and friends.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good quality - Text Great

The threading from one color to the next is a bit cumbersome. I am getting the hang of it. I am use to the threading of my PE770, which was such a breeze. The embroidery area should be more for this machine. The best feature is the text editing and adding of other designs. The screen is a big plus too. Also as with the PE770 changing the color sequence is great - especially with the threading. It is really fast. So wonderful to actually see the designs. The red locator light is also a welcomed feature. I had a concern with the vibration - but a very sturdy cart solved that problem.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I upgraded from my Brother PE770 and the transition was a breeze. Very easy to use and to thread. I couldn't be happier with the endless possibilities I now have! I highly recommend!

Great Purchase

I have embroidered for years and have 3 Viking machines also but when 2 of them needed service at the same time, decided to try the Persona as I had seen some info on it on facebook from other embroiderers. Great unit as I can now do small areas easily. Kind of wish it had a bigger hoop than 8x8 but I have my other machines that will work for big items. I have done many onesies, t shirts, bags, etc already and plan to figure out the cap unit and also use the really small hoops to embroider my son in laws initials on his dress shirts (at his request) I did not get the table top part so have not tried towels due to hanging weight off unit. I did get the 5x7 hoop instead of the continuous one that came with unit and have used that also several times. Because I have embroidered a lot, was easy to learn. If you have never embroidered before, would take a little longer to get comfortable with unit, I think. I also had never had a Brother before but have bought 3 of my grand daughters Brother sewing machines/quilting machines when they were 9 to learn to sew on so was somewhat familiar with name/reputation. I also love the filtec magnetic prefilled, sideless bobbins that I can use with this machine! Having to oil it each day was something new to get used to doing as I have never had to oil a machine in the 50 years I have been sewing/ 7 years I have been embroidering.
