I replaced my Singer machine that was skipping stitches with this machine. I was nervous about getting something new but this machine is so easy to use! I love the ease with threading the bobbin and needle! Very happy with this purchase!
I am trying to figure out certain aspects of the machine. Tension of the bobbin thread vs the top thread is one of them. I cannot seem to get that correct?
This is the worst sewing machine I've ever owned. It's a cheap piece of junk. Of course, you get what you pay for. Having come off my sturdy, wonderful Bernina to this, I was in shock at the poor quality. The LCD display should be lit as it's practically impossible to see anything. Threading is a chore, and the automatic threader rarely works and is more trouble than it's worth. Installing the walking foot was a nightmare as there were too many things to dismantle. My Bernina walking foot just snapped on. I don't have very large hands, but there is very little working space, and my hands barely had any room. I plan to donate this foreign made junk and purchase another Bernina. You can't beat Swiss workmanship. Brother, you need to step up your game and produce quality.
Watching the videos and looking at the diagrams, plus reading the manual (yay for a printed manual!) really helps with any confusion about how to thread the machine, etc. I watched them all, even the ones that I don't expect to need. Thanks so much for providing those! The speed control helps me make sure I don't sew faster than my ability when doing something new. I've tried some of the fancy stitches and buttonholes, and I really love them. I wasn't sure about the digital aspect - I'm old school and used to dials and buttons - but I'm not having any trouble at all. Just be sure to use the "needle up" when changing thread so the needle-threader is in the correct spot.
Loving my Brother CS7000X computerized sewing machine so far. My only disappointment so far is that I thought since it took sized 15 bobbins, I would be able to use my old metal bobbins in it. Unfortunately, I can not. I will have to rewind alllll my many bobbins. Oh well, one at a time, as needed! I'll survive...LOL!
When my old Brother machine finally succumbed to old age, it was time for a new one. I did a lot of research about many different brands. I just wanted a simple machine that was easy to use. I LOVE this machine!! I was in the middle of a quilt when my old one was done. I literally took it out of the box, reviewed the set up, and started sewing. There are of course things to relearn, like the back stitch. But I actually like it. I have more control of it than before. I sat down one day and started playing with the different stitches and familiarized my self with it. I love it. I would definately recommend it.
