I also have a Brothers sewing machine. I use both. The only thing I have found my machine will beep when I am low on bobbin thread with the plastic bobbins and it will NOt beep if I use the metal ones, otherwise it works just fine as long as its the same size (15)

Thank you!

The place that I bought my Brother sewing machine says if it came with plastic that is what you have to use. The metal or plastic will affect the tension. I don't think it will cause any damage to the machine. Just make you crazy with the tension adjustments.

At the prison, we use Brother machines & use both metal & plastic. HOWEVER - check your metal bobbins as some of them are loosly made around the center hole so that your thread gets caught on flange of the piece of metal.
