| Review by Barbara Boutsikaris (USA) 2010-06-02 I was given this sewing machine for Mother's Day and I haven't stopped sewing/quilting since. It's simple to thread and it sews smoothly and quietly -- like a dream. There are SO many stitch choices -- vines, flowers, double lines, squares and more -- and all you need to do is press a button and they just happen! I feel like I've been sewing in...

| Review by CL (Ohio) 2010-05-27 I chose this machine specifically because it offers a serger-like, stretchable stitch that I wanted for altering jersey-knit t-shirts. And it has a ton of other stitches--more than I will probably ever need. I use the machine almost daily and it seems very durable and good quality for its reasonable price. I'm glad I went with this machine.... Read more Brother XL2600I 25-Stitch reviews | ||

| Review by N. Turner (Missouri) 2010-03-12 So far, I love everthing about this machine It's light weight and that's a plus; but, it doesn't sew like a light weight. It functions like a $600 machine.

| Review by C Burgess (USA) 2010-07-03 Works great with my Babylock DenimPro (circa 1994?), on several fabrics (even flannel) and using zig-zag. Didn't work on straight stitch since I can't position the needle on my machine to far left or far right, center only, which causes the stitch to miss the roll entirely -- but that's a problem with my machine, not the foot.
