I bought a machine on a clearance at WalMart about 5 years ago, got it home, set it up, it didn't work. WM would not take it back even though I had the receipt. They said I had to send it to Brother. I called local repairman and he wouldn't work on it.

Not if they are an authorized dealer they can't. If they do report them to the company. Again, we will have to agree to disagree because this doesn't happen in my world!! |
I just came back from WalMarts. Of course I went to look at the Brother machines. I had one in my shopping cart for $109.00 I think it said 80 stitches. Anyway I talked myself right out of it and put it back on the shelf. I have a Brothers serger, found at a yard sale, and I love it.
I just bought a Monarch, in cabinet, at a yard sale for $20.00. So I really didn't need another machine. Hope I don't talk myself into going back and getting it. |
Go with the Consumer's Report maching but don't get rid of the baby Lock.

I have the project runway-purchased at Walmart-and I really like it. The stitches are nice and the button holes are wonderful. Sorry I don't know anything about the other machine.

I have the 9000 brother and love it. It sew's really nice. I love the needle down. The only thing I dont like is when i turn it on the needle is always on the left side. I always have to move it to the middle. I did brake a needle one time because of it.

I picked up a Project Runway at a garage sale and it works great. I love it almost as much as my other machines.

I just bought the Brother Project Runway machine and I love it. I paid $149.00 for mine. I'm still wet behind the ears when it comes to sewing and quilting, but this machine is a breeze to use, compact enough for my "sewing table" which is actually my coffee table. It sews denim like a dream and it has some fancy stitches on it as well. I'd love to be able to afford a really big expensive mahcine that does everything but this little workhorse is fine for now. It really is a great little machine.

I bought the Project Runway Brother about 2 yrs ago and love it! I take it to sewing class because it is so light and it has not given me any problems.

How can they be sure where you bought it? |
