![]() My guess is that Brother is aware of this issue but feels it's an acceptable loss. Maybe some machines are handled rough and become "tweaked" so that bobbins misfeed and needles aren't precisely aligned. My theory is that the machine has an internal flaw/weakness that occurs on about 10% of machines. ![]() Many of the negative reviews have similar complaints: needle breaking and/or bobbin issues. I think this is a fantastic machine for a novice.Prior to purchasing, I did extensive research into all aspects of sewing machines and found this machine to offer the best features for the price, and consistently high reviews. Although I felt overwhelmed at first - I had no idea what a bobbin or a pressor foot was and actually had to use Google for definitions - I was up and running in no time. The automatic needle threading and thread cutting features of this machine make it an absolute breeze to use for a beginner. My family cannot believe how many things I've made as a brand new sewer. However I have used the sewing features of this machine to make 3 sets of curtains, about a dozen pillows, aprons, change-out zippers, shorten hems and various other projects - with minimal difficulty. I have to say that I do more embroidering with this machine than sewing (probably 70/30 or 60/40). While I can't compare this to other machines, I can offer some insight as a novice sewer. ![]() I never even learned how to sew by hand, but I developed an interest in sewing and fabrics when I began collecting vintage clothing about 3 years ago. I have never, ever used a sewing machine before in my life. I absolutely LOVE this machine! I've been using it for about 2 months and I am totally brand new to sewing. ![]()
