Review on Brother SE270D LB6800PRW Innovis Embroidery Machine by Barbara Simmons

Bought this 3 piece set to use the 6.75 x 4 inch tire. Delivered late June 12th. The 6.75" x 4" hoop was tested on June 14th on an old canvas test fabric. When the hoop set is reassembled (without fabric) and the adjustment screw is tightened, daylight will appear between the two rings near the carriage attachment point. So use it once and that was the test! The outer plastic bracket is very thin and has very little reinforcement. Could this be a bad design and/or poor quality resin? Maybe there wasn't enough hardener in the plastic recipe? Q: How are these products tested before going to market, and is there quality control? In any case, this tire cannot be reused. PS - The original Brother 4 X 4 tire has been used multiple times. So the problem isn't my layout, it's not my materials, it's not my processes. Based on that experience, this doesn't even deserve one star!
