Have used Brother 1500S for 25+ years. The second one is exactly like the previous one. When you have a great product, don’t change it. Wish I’d kept the first one and had 2.
Brother has a dual feed function for super straight stitching. The dealers repair men were unaware of this and said it and Juki did the same. Not so! Unless doing a zig zag, 98% of quilt sewing is on Brother 1500S. No computer.
