love my new going to class machine
 

I have two excellent machines, a Janome and a Viking, but they are both so heavy to take to classes so I have been looking for an inexpensive light weight machine for a while. I finally bought the Brother PC 420 PRW. It is a limited edition, (PRW stands for project runway ). I was skeptical to say the least, and had almost decided to return it, but I opened the box and started playing and boy I was so impressed with this machine. It sews beautifully, has an automatic needle threader that works better than the ones on my high end machines, it has a knee lift, a thread cutter, and comes with a walking and quilting foot included. I am in love with this machine and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good machine to take to classes. I found it on line at Walmart for $399, more expensive on some of the other on line stores. I am doing a happy dance. The 1/4 inch seams are perfect, something I usually struggle with. You can see a video of it on youtube. The manual is excellent, has many many stitches, and is a great buy in my opinion.

I have a Bother that has been a hard worker for several years now! Love them. Even a class I went to decided to buy these for classes.

Hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine.

Have fun with your new toy!

In a lot of cases the cheaper machines will be at least as good as the high end. I also have thought of buying a lower end Brother. I have heard so many good things about them.

I have a brother sq9000 that I use for classes and love it! I used it for almost 5 years as my main machine and it never complained! I was thinking of trading it but I love it too much!

I've made many quilts and clothes on a cheapie Walmart Brother. I love that machine.

Count me in as a lover of lower end Brother machines. I have one at home and one at each of my son's. They are all different models but they all work great and are not at all fussy.

Love my brother SQ-9050 it is awesome. I actually like it alot better than the bernina 550QE I sewed on in january. Have always loved my low end and high end brothers

my daughter is very happy with her little brother---i am thinking of getting one for workshops

I have a couple of Brothers and no problems and they were cheap.
Bought a small Brother Embroidery machine with a 4 in embroidery area. It does all I want it for and it only cost 300 dollars.
Great machines.
