sewing machine muffler mats
#32
Strange ..... I was told never to put anything "soft" under my sewing machine. It sits on little feet that raises the machine just a tad above the table surface. The warning was that my machine could overheat if I "smothered" this space.

THese are great for the lightweight cheaper machines, keeps them from bouncing..and for when you got a class/sew in and they have the plastic banquet tables that will vibrate your machine on to the floor!

[quote=LauraEllen]Has anyone ever used one of these pads? They are supposed to reduce vibrations and noise from sewing machines.
If you all have good things to say I might consider purchasing one!
I bought one of those foam mats, in Walmart, that you are supposed to use in front of the sink to ease your standing there.
They are under $10, 6 or 7 I think. I cut it into pieces - one under my embroidery machine, one under my serger, and one under my computer tower. Wish I had another piece to take with me to class, my lighter weight machine likes to bounce on those banquet tables when I put the pedal to the metal!!! Ann

My Brother quilting machine has suction cups on the bottom, nothing else is needed. I would be careful about putting something too soft under the amchine as it may impede the air circulation and overheat the machine.:)
