Brother LX17 Sewing Machine

Aimed towards the beginner sewer, this new LX17 sewing machine from Brother is a dream to use. It is lightweight with many features that a more expensive machine would have! like a top-loading bobbin with a view-through transparent cover. It is easy to operate with a single clearly defined dial to select any stitch function.

It's portable, lightweight, weighing in at a mere 7kg, and supports a host of up-market features. This contemporary model fits into a niche market of consumers who need a lightweight machine, yet with full-size power and a sturdy alloy frame. This versatile Brother LX17 can cope with numerous sewing tasks, mending, repairs, crafting, dressmaking, quilt making, and the top-loading bobbin saves time, not to mention stress!

It is ideal for anyone looking to sew for the first time and make basic alterations and repairs. This machine is easy to use; simply, turn the dial and select a 4-step buttonhole, it is as easy as a.b.c., and it even has an electronic foot control, which means greater needle penetration, over thicker fabrics, even at slower stitching speeds. Straight and zig-zag stitching have six pre-set lengths, again, selected by the single stitch selection dial.

Of most interest to the user would be twin needle sewing, top drop-in bobbin with a view-through cover, buttonhole in only 4 steps, and its sleeve arm sewing capabilities.
