Brother AE2500 Sewing Machine

Product Information

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. 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.

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 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.

Rating

More information on quality can be found in this old but still very helpful article from Harvard Business Review. Due to the fact that it is a mechanical sewing machine beginners shouldn’t have any problem learning to use this sewing machine to its full potential. The fact that it doesn’t have a LCD screen means it is by no means the most technical sewing machine available. It is however a machine capable of completing a wide range of sewing tasks which is why many experienced sewers are interested in it. The scallop stitches that are included on this machine are not very dense, so there is not much payoff if you choose to use them. Similar to the Brother AE1700 the Brother AE2500comes with a 51 watt motor. To some that might not seem like the most powerful motor but, as many of you will know Brother have a good reputation for their powerful and highly reliable sewing machine motors. This machine is more than capable of sewing through multiple layers of fabric. Stitch Quality and Speed
