Brother 60 Stitch Computerized Sewing Machine CS 6000i

- Brother CS 6000i it is super easy to thread with step by step "directions" on the machine, so I won't have to dig out the manual if I don't use it for a while.

- Changing parts it's easy - the foot comes off and a new one snaps on in seconds;

- The quilting table easily slides on, and all the spare parts you could possibly need are included.

- When you select a new stitch it tells you right on the screen which presser foot to use. And the presser feet are super easy to attach.

- When you choose a particular stitch length and width are automatically set - no more guessing - but can be adjusted if you want.

- Machine is very light weight, so is good for classes.

- The cover over the bobbin is see thru, so you can see exactly how much thread you have left and what color.

- You don't have to step on the foot pedal to use reverse. You can just hold the button and it'll go on its own.

- Brother 60 Stitch Computerized Sewing Machine CS 6000i is a mid-price range machine, not one of the really cheap ones below $100, but also not in the 300-500 dollar range. It's just perfect.

What a great sewing machine!, May 14, 2009

This machine is amazing!! My husband bought this Brother machine for me for Mothers Day this year. Compared to my old machine this is a step up from the intro level machine I had been using for 6 years. As soon as the UPS man dropped it off, I had it out of the box and began reading the very informative Users manual. Let me tell you.....you get ALOT for your money. This machine come with every accesory you could ever possibly need. It comes with the hard case, needles, several different presser feet, several bobbins, seam ripper, tools for adjusting your machine, and a little bag to store everything in. But to top it all off, this machine sews very, very well. I like that it has both a foot pedal and finger controled option for sewing. This was something new for me, and I am in love with the button over the foot pedal. Don't let the price fool you. You will be very pleased with this machine.

I've been sewing for many years, and when my Viking quit working I researched for several weeks to find a reasonably priced and good
quality machine. The reviews on this Brother were mostly good, and for how I use it (making clothes for my granddaughter and her doll)it sounded like it was just what I needed. I've been using it daily for 3 weeks, and don't have a single complaint. I love the self threading feature and the start button. The buttonhole maker works like a charm, the decorative designs I've used so far give the clothes a really nice touch and are so easy to use. My thanks to all who put in their reviews, helping me make a good choice!
