[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brother LX3817G 17-stitch Full-size Sewing Machine in Grey is great for everyday essential sewing and mending. This is a full size sewing machine but is lightweight and durable. It is easy to learn to use. It has several great features that make your sewing experience easier and great for beginners. It has an upper thread tension dial, quick set drop in bobbin, easy bobbin winder, free arm for sewing sleeves, reverse sewing lever, bright LED light in work area, and an easy stitch selector. This machine also comes with all the accessories needed such as 4 different sewing feet, needle set, 4 bobbin, screwdriver, darning plate, foot controller, and an instructional DVD.  I enjoy using this sewing machine to mend our clothes and do sewing projects/crafts around the house. All the features make it so much easier and faster to complete!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion. I have not sewn since making a stuffed animal middle school. With the 20+ year gap, I decided to try this sewing this by again. Well I was pleasantly surprised and successful with my sewing aDventure with the Brother LX 3817G Lightweight Full size sewing machine. It was very easy to operate the machine— I successfully threaded the needle on the second try (because that is when I watched the instructions) and was able to manipulate the stitch selector on the first try (just winged it and didn't need the instructions here). Even though my first project was not as successful as my previous middle school attempt, I would recommend this sewing machine for the novice (or repeated novice like me) seamstress. It looks great, is easy to manipulate and is not overly complicated.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a pretty cool machine. It looks very well built and.its not the lightest but.it works great. Totally worth it. My mom loves to use it since she uses this kind very often. It would be cool to have a lot more colors though

Can this machine hold up to quilting activities? I bought it to fill in for a confidence quilter that finally quit. I like the stitches and the smoothness of operation. I have been sewing and quilting for 60 years so for the price, this machine is great. Mechanical machines are much more reliable than the computerized ones. They are lso tougher.

furst time to have sewing machine,, easy to follow direction.. hopefully must be put in good used

Purchased as a gift for my granddaughter, who lives across the country, and it did not work at all! She was do disappointed.

The thread frequently bunches up. I cannot sew a hem for jeans without a brand new denim needle breaking. I tried sewing a waist for a pair of jeans and it did HORRIBLE. The machine is not consistent at all, it kept stopping and i had to manually spin the wheel thing until it was able to start sewing again. The stiches arent even consistent either.
