Great Teacher
I had never learned to sew, but after watching hours and hours of YouTube videos I figured it out. Thankfully there are several videos specific to this model so I was able to learn quickly. This machine is simple enough for an absolute beginner but advanced enough to grow with my skills so I won’t feel I need a new one after a year or so.

Good, versatile machine for all levels of users
Great machine and meets nearly all my needs in a machine! I love all the decorative and functional stitches. It's easy to operate and functional enough for both new and experienced sewers. My only issue with the machine is that it can't handle denim and heavier threads very well. Other than that, it has been a great machine.

New machine HC1850
Good machine has taken a minute to get use to it, like everything else instructions are diagrams which are at times hard to follow.

Great Machine!
Bought this machine for a quilting class. It’s so lightweight and easy to use. I’m currently working on my 4th quilt. Love it!

Easy to use and move around for storage!
I love this machine! As a person who is relatively new to sewing (had some small project lessons as a kid), this has been incredibly user-friendly. It's taking my learner abuse and still ticking. Love that it's light enough to move around the house, as I have limited space, and the built in handle area makes that even easier!

Happy with results
I sew as a hobby, and have used this new machine now for about 50 hours of sewing, all of which required use of various stitches, both decorative and utility (but no embroidery), on small craft items such as doll clothes. I had been using a much older machine before, and had certain usage habits that wouldn't work on this new machine, but I found that as i became more f...

Happy with the machine but!
The machine is great for the price. Easy to use after you read the instruction book carefully.
The plastic spool pin and its placement is troubling. It needs to be handled with care. I feel any rough handling would cause it to break.

Great machine
I was looking for a replacement machine, but got so much more! This machine is a joy to use. I haven't used all the stitches yet, I'm trying out something new all the time. Very user friendly.

Sewing is fun and easy with my Brother.
I needed a new sewing machine and wanted a slight upgrade from my original basic Brother sewing machine, which was over 25 years old. This machine has more stitches and capabilities, but not complicated to use. Feeding the bobbin and loading the bobbin is simple, as is threading the machine. This machine is good for those with all sewing levels.

Stitches
I love the machine but the double stitch on 00 and 01 became a single row of stitching after just one week. Not a big deal but I worry about the more intricate ones.

Great Quality Machine
I love this machine. The only thing missing is an automatic thread cutter. The quality is great. I’ve made many projects so far this year and have had no issues. Everything is easy to see use and understand. It is a beautiful and well functioning machine. I will only use brother.

Beginner Sewer
I am a beginner at sewing and this is my first machine. It’s very easy to use and nice and quiet! It has more stitch options than I will probably ever use which is nice that it’s not a basic machine. The on-line YouTube video on how to use it is fantastic!!

This was one of my best sewing machines I ever purchased. But due to my house flooding it got damaged. Tried to get it refurbished but yet no hope. I will be saving up again to purchase another one. But hopefully get one as a gift for Christmas lol

Unable to place spool as directed
The instructions show placing spool so thread comes from the back of the spool and from the back of the spool. I have not been able to find one spool that this is possible. Manual says if not done this way tension will be affected and needle can break!
