Brother XR 7700 Computerized Sewing Machine w/Free Bonus Feet Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have a Viking, but purchased this when my Viking was in for repair. I've wanted a backup that was dependable & I didn't want to tote around my heavy, expensive Viking. I needed a lighter, more portable machine that I could tote around for my weekly quilt group.
This machine performs better than expected. It sewed through some fairly thick layers with ease. Top loading bobbin threading is a cinch. Quite a few features that my older computerized Viking does not have (auto needle threader!). The only thing that I currently wish it had was a way for the thread to lay horizontal like my Viking does. But this little machine has more stitches. Most importantly, it has specialty quilting stitches...like the blanket stitch & piecing stitch & also has "needle down" default & quilt extension table.
The adjustable speed is great for teaching kids or for detailed applique. Just a great machine all around. I would recommend it to any of my friends although I have a friend who has the step up from this that has basic alphabet embroidery. That would be nice. Some Brother accessories (bobbins & 2 feet) are available at Walmart.
Keep in mind that this machine is designed for QUILTING, but can be used for regular sewing. I find that the needle down default is annoying when doing sewing projects (button for needle up/down)....but awesome for quilting.
