Prices from Brother

The Brother AE1700 comes with a 51 watt motor similar to the Brother AE2500. Compared to the similar priced Singer 1507, which has a 85 watt motor, the difference in power is noticeable. That been said, you will have no problems sewing through multiple layers with this machine. Brother are well-known for their high-quality motors and although they may be less powerful in terms of Wattage than similar priced machines, they are always capable of doing their job. Stitch Quality and Speed In total there are four presser feet included with the Brother AE2500. In terms of usage they are more geared towards making clothes. This is one of the reasons why I have on numerous occasions recommended this sewing machine to those that are looking to take up sewing mainly for that reason. It can also be converted to free arm for the sewing of cuffs and sleeves. It doesn’t matter whether you are new to sewing or have been doing it for years, threading the needle can be a hard task at times. Unfortunately, the Brother AE2500 doesn’t comes with an automatic needle threader it is however a simple process to thread the needle. You can find full instructions on how to thread the needle on both the instructional DVD and in the users manual. Portability To be honest I may be a bit biased when it comes to Brother sewing machines as they are one of my favourite brands. That been said, I don’t think there are many people that will tell you that the stitch quality of the Brother AE2500 isn’t up to standard. The Brother brand have a solid reputation for manufacturing affordable sewing machines that have excellent stitch quality. This has a lot to do with the high-quality motors that they have and the maximum speed of this machine is 1000 stitches per minute.

If you’re new to sewing this is a great first time sewing machine as it has enough functions to keep you going before you will outgrow it and feel the need to invest in a more technical sewing machine. Overall it is very easy to use and is a great starting point.

Stitches and Buttonholes With a large majority of Brother Sewing Machines been targeted towards beginners, it should come as no surprise that the Brother AE1700 is designed with ease of use in mind. The automatic bobbin winder is one very newbie friendly feature, this saves you from having to wind the bobbin manually.

Just before we get into the detail of analysing the price of this product, we want to briefly highlight the importance of setting yourself a budget before you spend too much time shopping around for a suitable product. It’s all too often that we get carried away when shopping and find ourselves buying a fantastic product, but probably actually overdelivers on what we need and therefore costs a lot more than we should have spent. So spend a bit of time looking around at the sort of price you can expect to pay for products in the Sewing machines category and use that alongside your own financial situation to set yourself a budget. Keep an eye out for models of sewing machines that have a wide selection of foot attachments; foot attachments are necessary for different components of sewing. You will need different foot attachments if you plan on doing things like inserting a zipper or sewing on a button. Weighing in at 6.6kg, this sewing machine isn’t the best choice for those that regularly go to sewing classes. This is a good indicator of a well-built sewing machine and is always a good sign that you aren’t buying a cheap sewing machine made mainly of plastic components. Included AccessoriesThe next step for us was to look at all of the products that fall within the Sewing machines category, of which we found 15 products at Argos.

If the upper thread of the machine keeps breaking where the needle enters the fabric, it could be that the needleplate or bobbin case have minor damages in the form of scratches and/or sharp edges. These minor damages can cause the thread to break after a few stitches. Find out why Brother AE2500 Stitch Sewing Machine scored an incredible review score of 8.8 out of 10.

The LED light that comes on this machine is extremely bright and illuminates whatever part of your project you happen to be working on at the time. The brand of product you buy can vary in importance, from person to person. Some people will of course be much more particular about the brands they will use. Whilst others aren’t interested in the brand and are more interested in the overall quality or price of the product itself. Thankfully Brother is a brand that many customers have grown to love over the years and is very popular for items in the Sewing machines category. In total there are four presser feet included when you buy the Brother AE1700. These are more geared towards making clothes, which is why I recommend this machine as a good choice for beginners and any budding fashionistas out there. It is also suitable for home furnishings and similar sewing projects and is a quite versatile machine. There can be various reasons for this. The needle may not be the correct one for the selected fabric, the needle may have been set too low, the fabric may not be properly guided or the bobbin case may be placed incorrectly. Weighing 6.7 Kg this is by no means considered a lightweight sewing machine. This is however a good indication that it has many parts made of metal rather than plastic, which is always a good sign as metal parts are far more durable. If you are thinking about taking it to sewing classes just be sure that you don’t have to walk too far before you get to your class. Included Accessories
