very disappointed:
I bought this machine for my daughter and it worked great for about 6 months, then she began having trouble with the embroidery function. Sadly the machine was not able to be repaired.

Needle breaking - can someone help me?:
I just got this machine and have tried to applique 2 pieces. Both times the needle breaks during the last step of the applique process. I think something is wrong. I am using needle size 100. Can someone please help me? Email back.

LOVE IT!!!!:
I have had this machine for a year and it has opened the door to become more creative without killing your wallet. I love that the machine does both sewing and embrodery. The automatic threader has spoiled me. If you want an affordable machine that will do everything, this is it!

Brother SE270D Computerized Sewing and Embroidery Machine:
The Amazon.com service on this order was excellent. However, shipment of this item was handled improperly. There were no "Fragile" markings or other special handling instructions on the package and it was loosely packed in newsprint. As a result, the machine arrived with a broken case and is completely inoperable. At this point I am awaiting disposition instructions from the seller. Return postage is to be paid by the seller. Thank you, Amazon, for your immediate response and refund of purchase price.

A tough, versitle little sewing machine:
This is a tough, versitile little sewing machine. Though i'm still a novice, I've made several leather coats with mine and i'm quite pleased with the flexiblity this machine provides - ease of use with foot & needle changing - auto thread load and cut, multiple thread select and a lot of features simplified to make life easier. The Embroidery system is simple too - though you'll probably want to purchase a PED & Card blank atttachent. (you can't just use a USB stick to transfer digital designs which is a bummer) However, for a general purpose machine - its a nice little work horse for the price.
