Bought new

Approximate age of the machine

5 yrs

Approximate price paid for this machine?

6000 with software

What type of sewing you did/do with this machine?

This is the second Brother embr/sew mach I've had. Love the Brother machines. I used to sew garments a lot with the 1st one, but now I find that I do more embroidering and not as much clothing. I do sew wallhangings, placemats, napkins, baby blankets etc. I have embroidered many gifts (towels, t-shirts, pillows)..that machine needed to pay for itself.

What is your satisfaction level with this machine?

I love the Brother machines; so much easier to embroider than the first Janome I had. Every design is automatically centered, and that such a relief. Stitching is great. It has been a delight to sew with this machine.

Advice

  • I'd get another one without even looking around if I was at that stage. Our local dealer has been wonderful to work with also, and that makes a tremendous difference. In fact dealer satisfaction must be considered before any purchase such as this.
