5 Stars very good machine
I’m very happy with my new sewing machine,I have onother Brother machine where I work it’s a very plain model, but work wonders.When I needed a new machine for home I decided to get another Brother. I was very surprized how well it work for the price.I realy like and recomend to anyone looking for a sewing machine.
5 Stars I have bought 2 of these machines!
I bought the first Brother XL600I for my oldest daughter for Christmas a year and a half ago. She loves it! She has made many garments with the machine and it runs like a charm. She took it to college with her last year and used it in her dorm room. I bought the second machine in May for my daughter who just graduated from high school. She wanted one to take to college also. She has used her sister’s and knew it was a good one. My 2 youngest daughter already have their eye on having there own machine. I will buy them the same model if it is still available at that time!
1 Star Do not recommend
I purchased this product for basic sewing but have been very unhappy. It seems to have trouble even with a straight stitch. The bobbin mechanism is poor — it continually jams and I spend more time fighting with it than actually sewing. I will probably have to replace this machine if I want to continue sewing and I have only been using it for a couple of months.
5 Stars Fantastic!
I got this machine yesterday and I love it! Already I’ve been able to mend multiple things! It’s worked on stretch fabrics, delicate knits, and even jeans. I patched worn jeans pockets without a problem.
I found the machine very easy to use, the instruction booklet was fairly clear as were the directions on the machine. I love this machine and can imagine I will use it often!
5 Stars Best in its Category
I previously had another Brother Sewing machine, LS2125I, which was sort of pain but got me through most little projects. After move cross-county however, my sewing machine was destroyed by movers. After reading a ton of reviews I went w/ a very popular Hello Kitty Sewing Machine. Well, looking past the flowers and kitties, this thing was a complete joke. Finally after being ready to chuck the thing out the window (too bad I live on a bottom floor) I decided it was time to find another. Again reading the reviews lead me back to this Brother; and I am very glad I did. I mostly hem my pants and uniforms, but if I have to spend hours in frustration doing so, it’s completely maddening. I just received this item and out of the box it was easy set-up (Hallelujah for the automatic Bobbin!) and I had pair of jeans hemmed in lightening speed. Perfection!
