Loving it
on March 1, 2015
Posted by: Shoefan5
from Portland, OR
I am so excited with my sewing machine. I must admit I was worried that I wouldn't be able to figure out all the things it can do, but the more I use it the more I'm learning. The only thing I didn't like and it wasn't about the machine was the instruction manual. It could of been laid out differently, all English in one section, and then the Spanish in another. That's the only thing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Sweet little machine

I recently started sewing again after retirement. I probably made my last project 30 years ago. I was amazed at the capabilities of this new little machine. Skeptical due to the price and plastic parts, I've made several beautiful pieces on this machine, even if it doesn't weigh the same as a small SUV like my old machine. Progress is beautiful!

Very happy with this machine

This is the first sewing machine I have owned and I've taught myself to sew with it. Very easy to use when learning, easy to thread (takes about 30 seconds to thread). As I've gotten into more advanced projects I've purchased a few accessory feet and the machine has kept up with all my needs. I like the drop-in style bobbin but I find that just sticking the top thread through the needle is easier than trying to use the little needle threader hook to pull it through. It works the same either way so I just ignore the needle threader. I've brought this machine traveling with me and others have commented how light and portable it seems, which it is, yet it always stays firmly on the table when sewing. Overall I think it's great for beginning to intermediate sewers and I would recommend it.

Appears to be excellent quality, especially for the exceptionally low price. Got this for my grandchild for her 11th birthday and she seems to be having no problems learning to sew with this machine. I used it for awhile before giving it to her and am very happy with this product.

great little machine

I did not have any experience sewing beyond watching my mother over 20 years ago and I got this for Christmas. I have been using it quite a lot. The controls are very intuitive and easy to figure out. Threading the needle and the bobbin are also very intuitive. Sometimes the needle does come unthreaded. I am not sure if it is something I am doing or not, but since it it easy to rethread it's not an issue for me. All I. All a great machine for basic at home sewing. Not sure if it would stand up to heavier fabric but since I don't do that, again, not an issue for me.

This machine is very well constructed and a great value. It is easy to use and accessories for this machine are very affordable. The range of uses, from delicate to denim fabric are very flexible.

Brother XL 2600i
on December 3, 2014

from Central Illinois
I purchased eight of these machines to take on a mission trip to Nicaragua. This is a good basic mechanical machine. The advantages that convinced me to buy this were the price, weight and one step button hole. While it has a few built in decorative stitches and automatic needle threader, it is a beginner machine that is dependable and simple to use.
