Description

The optimum machine for speed and precision, the Brother PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine is a fantastic machine that belongs in the sewing room of every serious quilter and sewist. With modern cosmetics, heavy-duty construction for sewing and quilting for increased stability at high speeds, a reinforced handle with a sturdy yet comfortable metal plate, and advanced features such as a push-button thread cutter that allows you to save time without compromising the quality of your sewing projects, the Brother PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine is ready to take on any project. With lightning- fast sewing of up to 1,500 stitches per minute, the PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine is ideal for a hobby consumer who quilts and sews and wants a workhorse machine. In addition, the needle position on this sewing and quilting machine can be pre-programmed to be up or down when the machine stops with the Customize Needle Stop Position feature. The PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine also features an adjustable pin feed mechanism that simultaneously moves several layers of fabrics for sewing accuracy. For example, this moves all layers of your quilt together or moves a delicate velvet without leaving feed dog marks in the nap. The PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine also has a convenient Thread Tension Adjustment Dial so you can achieve accurate tension control for even more precision. Even heavy weight fabric can be sewn without significant adjustment of thread tension dial. The four color-coded feed dogs have height settings for additional maximum fabric control. The PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine has a push- button thread cutter and easy needle threader, a time-saving convenience. The Onboard Fabric Separator tool easily sews seams in contrasting fabrics without puckering. The built-in Knee Lifter for quilting allows you to raise and lower the presser foot so your hands can re-position or remove your material. With a large 5.7" x 8.7” needle-to-arm space, the PQ1600S makes free motion quilting easy, and the extra-large extension table (11.1" x 23.3") with bobbin case opening helps you manage those large projects. The extension table has easy access points that eliminate the need to remove the table to replace the oversized metal bobbin. The built-in telescopic Dual Cone Thread stand keeps two thread spools ready for smooth and easy feeding. The PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine has an optional 5-needle felting attachment which allows you to customize a wide range of fabric surfaces with specialty roving or contrasting fabrics up to 1,500 stitches per minute.

  • No regrets!
Style: New Model: PQ1600S
I have been using this for a year, so it is time to write a review. Like many other reviewers, I needed to upgrade my equipment for quilting after spending many years using a cheap Brother, which still runs great and which I still love. I got this one because of the brand, the good price, the large work space, and importantly, the lack of computers. As others have pointed out, it is very heavy and it does only one thing, which is to sew a straight line, but it does that one thing flawlessly. I have not had many of the problems others have mentioned. Yes the bobbin and threading mechanisms are fiddly, but you get used to it. The automatic thread cutter is amazing! The only problems I have ever had with stitching have been due to user error during the learning process, and I find it easy to control the speed with the foot pedal. For perfect stitching on a solid machine, especially on large projects, this model can't be beat. While I have another machine that does fancy stitches, I did not realize how much I would miss a zigzag. I sew a lot of linen, which unravels very easily, and it would be nice to be able to do some stabilizing zigzags with this machine rather than set up the other one. The 1600s does not come with a walking foot, which is a bit unfair, since most people buy this for quilting. It took me quite a while to find the correct one - the Brother website is no help. Eventually I got one at Sewing Parts Online (Walking Foot, High Shank #XA7253001). It cost $70 and comes in an unmarked plastic bag so it does not seem to be an official Brother part, but it works. I have not tried free motion quilting yet, but it comes with a free motion foot, and the big workspace and detachable table give you lots of room for that. No regrets! ... show more

  • Very good choice for a utility / quilting machine.
Style: New Model: PQ1600S
Have had this machine for a week and already LOVE it! It’s easy to to get up to speed with, threading is pretty easy, is quiet, sturdy, stitches nicely… The only negative for me would be that the location of the bobbin is a little awkward.. a very nice utility and quilting machine!

  • Premium machine
Style: New Model: PQ1600S
For me, this machine is perfect for the home sewing that I do. Outdoor fabrics , upholstery fabrics, cosplay, and hemming jeans. I have always liked Brother machines. They make high end machines for advanced Sewists and affordable beginner machines that are easy to figure out. This machine has a nice wide work area for the heavier fabrics I work with. Very heavy solid machine. I am sure it will last a long time. ... show more

  • Amazing Machine. Buy it new. Not the Used very good option.
Style: New Model: PQ1600S
My review is not going to the product itself because i know for a fact that is an amazing machine. My review goes to the item listed as “used -very good” . I have bought this option and i had to returned. From the beginning i knew something wasn’t ok, The condition of the intern packaging was terrible. The machine brought several pieces and accessories broken. One of them was the Feet dog adjuster knob. Don’t buy this option unless you don’t care to keep it this way. ... show more

  • Strong machine.
Style: New Model: PQ1600S
Pay close attention to how this is threaded. I had the upper thread in the tensioner wrong. Also the needle threader is awkward to learn. Once you do, it works fine. The machine itself is awesome. Love it, does what I wanted it to do.
