Can I use universal bobbins on this machine or do they have to be Brother machine bobbins? Thanks for your help, Michele

I got some at Walmart for mine - they aren't the universal ones but do say for Brother machines. I know Amazon sells them too.

Be sure and hold the package sideways and look through the bubble, sometimes the clear bobbins look flat when they're really rounded or vs versa. Mine Brother uses the flat ones and sometimes they get hard to find because the people ordering them don't know the difference.



Oooops, seems I've lost my "regular" status again.
