Brother Sewing Machine, XM2701, Lightweight Machine with 27 Stitches, 6 Included Sewing Feet

I bought this sewing machine 6 years ago unsure if I would get really into the hobby— I had a simple project I wanted to do and my mom agreed to help get me started. We picked this machine and spending the money then felt like such a gamble because I was unsure if I’d use it!!! Well, I fell in love with sewing hook line and sinker thanks in part to this extremely easy to use and unfussy machine. I started with the YouTube video explaining how to do it alongside my mom who gave me a very quick lessons. From there, I was pretty much off to the races. I have used mostly wovens but have had success with knits as well. I’ve really been able to do everything with this machine. It is not limiting.I’ve sewn soooooo many projects at this point: Baby blankets Kids clothes (dresses, pants, shorts, fleece jacket, boys swim suit) Halloween costumes (Totoro gray and blue! A seagull! A buoy! A snail! Forky!) Tote bags Cosmetic bags/dop kits Fleece hats Chair covers Adult garments (dress, boxer shorts) Christmas stockings (felt) Hannukah banner I write this review because I am finally ready for an upgrade after 6 years with this machine. And I sewed a lot lot lot lot. The machine is still going strong but I now want a machine that will allow me more industrial strength to plow through more complicated (thicker) projects and is heavier. I also know now what kind of sewing I like and can buy a machine specifically for that. This is a great machine for anyone starting out who isn’t “sure” if the hobby is for you, or anyone wanting to do some sewing on a budget. I can’t really recommend it for someone who is advanced, but I don’t think super advanced sewists are considering this. My mom, sister, and I all have brother machines (theirs are nicer and computerized) and have found them extremely easy to use and reliable. If in doubt, get this machine!!!!!

What a great sewing machine! I am living in another state temporarily and I did not want to bring my Bernina- so I ordered this one hoping for the best. And honestly I think I like it better than the Bernina. It is very intuitive to thread and use- stitches are even, no fiddling with tension. It just works really well! The instruction booklet is good. I am not a expert seamstress by any means- and I have used the machine for craft projects and making children's clothing (the stretch stitches work great). I am not sure it is up to sewing heavy fabric- but this is not something I am doing now- so it's not any issue. I highly recommend this machine!

AMAZING . So easy to set up the thread and bobin . It's pretty . Not to heavy. Lots of diffrent stiches to choose from easy to figure out . Comes with easy instructions and theres plenty of videos online with easy to follow instructions for the exact machine, if you aren't able to understand them to well. It work very smoothly so far . I love it so much . Highly recommend, especially if you're new to sewing it's easy to use for beginners. The tension seem good as well and if you test it on a peice of scrap fabric first anytime you start a project and are messing around with the tension it's pretty easy to use and figure out. The presser foot is very good easy to figure out the perfect speed on.

I just got this and so far, it's been great! it seems quality, easy to thread and sew with, the pedal works nicely and the reverse lever is perfect too! Its easy to adjust the stitch length, tension etc. one problem though is that there is no handle for portability, but other than that it seems pretty strong and powerful. idk how it would do with something like layers of denim but its pretty nice. another problem though is that it doesnt come with the right size screw driver to change the needle... you'll have to find your own i like the double needle that comes with it!

I researched beginner-friendly sewing machines before buying, and this model consistently came up alongside the Singer Heavy Duty. My previous machine was a basic Brother that lasted 14 years—I was just tired of threading it manually. This one works great straight out of the box. I did need to watch a few videos to learn the threading, but overall it’s simple and does everything I need. My only concern is the spool pin: on my first Brother, the top pin broke almost immediately, and this one looks just as flimsy since it’s plastic. I’m worried it may break again.

I had a sewing machine years ago that I had trouble figuring out and gave it away. I recently decided to give it a try again. I started looking on Amazon and came across this one. I picked this one because it was beginner friendly, inexpensive if I decided it wasn’t for me, and I found a bunch of informative videos on this exact one. I like that if you forget how the thread it there is step by step pictures on the machine. I would 10/10 recommend

Näht Jeans perfekt und leicht. Schnurrt ganz leise wie ein Kätzchen und ist auf Lebenszeit geölt. Fühlt sich an wie eine teure elektronische und die Fadensysteme (oberer und unterer) funktionieren einfach automatisch. Völlig ausreichend für die alltäglichen kleinen Änderungen, Anpassungen ...

My wife is over the moon. She said it's brilliant and easy to use

No soy un experto de las máquinas de coser, el uso que le doy es principalmente para hacer dobladillos ocasionales y debo decir que la experiencia de uso es agradable y fácil, se cose muy bien y tiene muchas funciones y accesorios que ni siquiera he probado. Hasta ahora lo único que se me ha complicado un poco es cuando se trata de telas más gruesas porque la 'cosa' que sujeta la tela la aprieta tanto que no permite seguir moviendo la tela hacia atrás, pero realmente no es un error, en el manual te indican que levantes ligeramente la 'cosa' con la mano, así que es cuestión de práctica.

Légère, silencieuse, bonne machine pour une débutante
