Best Brother Sewing Machines for Novice

very good beginner machine and it's durable.

it is clearly not designed for heavy duty work, but i am only interested is doing small jobs so it's perfect for me.

it is sturdy and i love it!

it's obvious it's for first-time users, but it's still durable and works great.

this was my christmas gift, so i haven't had a chance to do more than check it out and i can't comment on durability.

other than that it is easy to use and seems fairly durable and user friendly.

i have three brother machine's including the embroidery/sewing machine and love their affordability, durability and ease of use.

threading a serger is and will always be a more complex process than threading a sewing machine.

although the machine is very light and easy to carry, it doesn't feel or look cheaply made.

when i lifted the box and took out what seemed to be very light flimsy machine i thought to myself here we go....until i set it up and started to use it.

the decorative stitches are fun, but it did take a bit of time to tweak my sewing style to the computerized system.

it's a little flimsy but does the job even though i have to fiddle with it a bit to get the arm to wrap around the needle.

it has plenty of functions--utility & decorative stitches & 4 built-in buttonholes--and comes with lots of accessories, including special presser feet.

i was accustomed to an old heavy duty singer.

i think it was worth the price i paid, but glad i've kept my sturdy old white machine too.

i am new to sewing and wanted to start out with a machine that was not to complex.

--lots of utility and decorative stitches for the price
