I would like your advice on a Brothers Embroidery Sewing Machine. I do not have the room for a large machine and I am thinking of buying a small Brothers Embroidery Machine. I do not know how to embroidery on a machine so I am wondering if this would be a good starter for me. I just want to monagram and learn how to do a little more. Has anyone had one of these machines and can you advise me.

15 years ago i started with a bernina deco, which was made by brother. it's a small, 4"x4" capability embroidery machine. I will say, that little machine was a workhorse! a few years later, i upgraded to a babylock ellure, which has a 5x7 area. have never progressed further (ie needing a bigger machine). I have not looked at the new lower priced brothers, but gut tells me it is alot like their older machines. I would buy one if i was just getting into it!

Brother makes a great embroidery machine! It is a great place to start. It's more about needles, thread, and stabilizers than the machine itself. You can always post questions....maybe we might have the answer!!

Yahoo has a group for owners of Brother embroidery machines too that you might find helpful.

i have the se350 & the 400 both love them both

I have a brothers 4000 love it embroidery hoop 7x12largest, really like to get the new dueta(sp) but just can't swing it for 8000

Love my SE270D and PE700II. Bought the SE270D first. It is a combo machine and small. Have had very little problems with either one. Both of mine were refurbished which saved me about $100 per machine. The only thing I wish is that mine used the Flash Drive so my laptop didn't have to be positioned near them. I think now you can get the lower priced ones that uses the Flash Drive.

I have the one that is sold at Costo with the thread pack. Love it!!!!

There is one for $300 at Walmart now. There will also be one on hsn next month.

I have a Brother Quattro and love it. Before that I had a Babylock Ellure and liked that too.
