Review by Abi Walker
100%I am a newbie but last year did a day course to learn the basics of using a machine and they used Brother machines. So after struggling to make a dress on my Cub 4 (which was great but a bit hard going) I thought I'd upgrade as I enjoyed it so much. I wavered between buying new or getting a reconditioned old machine as some people recommended. I took the plunge with new. This machine is very easy to understand, with enough mod cons i.e. automatic needle threader, button hole setting and speed control to make life easier without too many confusing controls I don't need. I have used it so far to do some clothing alterations and make a dog bed cover but I already know I will get on with it fine. Plenty of extra feet included, new needles, extra bobbins etc. and optional extras I know I can purchase easily if I need them. Very pleased with this, can't wait to make a dress on it!

Review by Kay Ingamells
100%Excellent service thank you I ordered my sewing machine over a Bank Holiday weekend and it arrived on the Wednesday. I have already used the machine and so far I am really pleased with it. It does everything I need and a lot more - threads its own needle - can you believe it - brilliant!. It is the first brand new sewing machine I have ever owned and I am being a little cautious with it (I don't want to hurt it) I chose it after reading other customer reviews - and am very pleased that I went for the more expensive machine - as with all new things I have had a few teething problems - for instance I had trouble with the 'one step buttonholes' but I think this is due to my ineptitude rather than any fault with the machine - yotube proved really helpful to me. Feel sure I will get used to the machine and hope that it will see me through to my dotage - thanks again

Review by Colin Brandi
100%It's still early days with this machine but overall I am very impressed. It has been bought to replace my Pfaff 1473CD and in most respects the new machine performs much better, especially when creating buttonholes and on decorative stitching. However, I find it tricky to accurately position the needle with the foot in the up position and if I put the foot down I can't move the fabric!!!!!!! perhaps the 'auto foot' is not always such a good thing. The only other problem that I have is that the automatic thread cutting does not always work. Since this was a feature that I was looking forward to using when making quilts I may have to refer back to the suppliers on this one. Trying to insert the 'plug' when using the buttonhole foot can be tricky but a small mirror was all that was needed to solve the problem. Despite my reservations I have no hesitation in awarding the machine 5 stars and I look forward to many years working with it.

Review by Jacqueline Brown
100%I am delighted with my new machine! The service I received was efficient and prompt with updates as to the delivery process emailed frequently. The machine is everything I had hoped for .... easy to use, quiet and smooth. As I am a keen quilter, the free quilting accessory pack was a fantastic bonus! I have already used it most days, and look forward to many happy hours of sewing.

80%My 43 year old Singer packed up to old for spares. Being 80 what did I choose. I made the right choice. Simple to use but threading the spool takes a bit of getting use to. Could be my age but I am happy with this machine I am sure it will out live me.
