Review on Brother Intl LX3817: The Ultimate Lightweight and Full-Size Sewing Machine! by Kristen Simpson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great sewing machine for beginners!

I am a sewing beginner and in the photo you can see my very first job that I did on my new sewing machine. I watched a video on the Internet on how to thread the thread and how to wind the bobbin. I have absolutely no training in sewing and was just watching videos to get an idea of how to operate this machine. So when I say it's easy to use! That's easy. Some people having problems with this machine need to watch sewing instruction videos. If you need to know how to adjust the bobbin and you can't pull the bobbin thread through the plate, it's important to watch these videos. At the beginning of the commissioning, the needle should also be inserted into the tissue with the rotary wheel. Likewise, when threading the needle, the base plate must be raised. ALWAYS! These beginner mistakes can cause a lot of jams and thread problems. I read the manual and watched the video for a week before unpacking my Brother LX 3817A. I didn't want to break it or hurt it. If you are new to sewing and computer controlled machines are intimidating then this machine is for you! No stitch width or stitch length adjustment. Just a rotary stitch switch and a tension wheel.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • High price
