If you are looking for a workhorse, simple to use machine, this is the machine for you!! I own 4 Computerized Brother Sewing and Embroidery machines. This one sews over many layers with seams without bogging down and breaking needles. The Stitch quality is beautiful. I do all kinds of sewing and appliqueing. It was simple to set up and directions are very clear to understand. I may have left another review but had to tell you, if you want simple that does the job, get this machine.

I am a beginner and this was the perfect machine for me. The projects are endless with this machine. So far I have made winter hats, bags pouches, tissue holders, hemmed pants, shortened sleeves on shirts and made pouches to organize my cargo pants pockets. I have had zero issues. It makes me wonder why I did not buy a sewing machine 20 years ago. Highly recommended.

I have been a seamstress all my life and at 70 I thought I knew about sewing machines. I have used a Bernina, which I felt was too fussy for me, and switched to Brother when I bought my first Serger. Besides the quality of Brother machines, I feel they are a great company that backs their products. With my Brother machines, I have made more than 40 Renaissance Court costumes, including King and Queen costumes. Now that I am a grandma (Meemo) I have started making doll clothes. I have had a computerized Brother for the last four years but because I am now planning on making covers for an outdoor lawn swing and patio chairs, I decided to get the Brother Strong and Tough to use with the heavyweight fabrics that will be necessary for those projects. Once I had this machine out of its box, it was set up in minutes. The stitches are nice and even and it is easy to adjust the tension and type of stitches. I have used it now on faile and dotted swiss while making dresses for my granddaughters' dolls and I have had my seven-year-old granddaughter using the machine as I teach her sewing. I had bought her a lightweight Brother as a birthday present but I think I am going to get one of these for her instead. It is a much better machine. I have stored my computerized machine to make room for this one on my sewing table. I find now that after all these years, I prefer the mechanical machine to the computerized ones. What a revelation! All the extra stitches on my computerized machine go to waste as any embroidery that needs to be done I do by hand. Always have. Always will. I appreciate that this machine has a rubber base to keep it from moving while I sew. I appreciate that none of the stitches skip and that it is easy to start sewing at the edge of the fabric without having to hold the threads in the back to keep the stitches from bunching. I like that the presser foot has an extra height adjustment to use on thick fabrics, something I will be needing when I make the lawn swing seats. There a couple of things I miss from my old machine but will adjust to quickly. The "down needle" button for pivoting fabric. The longer cord on the pedal foot which I could drop behind my table top instead of draping forward across the table. The quieter running motor, so I can sew at night without waking my grandkids and their parents up. These are all minor issues though in exchange for a really good machine that I expect will be the last one I get. All of the machine feet I have for my old Brother fit this machine as well, but the bobbins are a slightly different size and not interchangeable. It comes with four bobbins, and I had purchased more bobbins for my granddaughters' other machine that fit this machine just fine. AND it came with a Teflon foot which will come in handy on many of the fabrics I use for the doll clothes. I am a very satisfied customer. Thank you Brother for continuing to make such great products.

The machine is really strong and tough as the name implies. I liked all of the simple features it had on it. The drawback to me was the buttonhole attachment. When you start the buttonhole you'll have to adjust your zig zag stitch to make tight lines. When the buttonhole has finished one two and three the last stitch which is a zig zag stitch doesn't stop as other machines do. It just keeps sewing down. So the adjustment is to look through the tiny hole of the needle plate and make sure your stitch stops and you are not able to backtack to secure the stitch. You just have to cut the thread and try to pull it through the fabric so that you can tie a knot. Not to my liking. Sending it back. Other than that I thought it was a great machine and it will sew through eight denim fabric pieces and then land on a single cotton fabric and the stitches look great. I am going to upgrade to the computerized one which does a lot of other things but also makes nice buttonholes. Good job two brother for making a incredible machine.

I have bought this machine 16 times to be used by boys and girls who are incarcerated, for my grandchildren, and for myself. Teachers say the kids can’t break them and they will sew any project. Teen boys have been thanking their art teacher for teaching them a real skill. One girl who was in a foster group home found the cost of buying this machine worth saving her money from a part time job. She had learned to sew with a group and missed having a machine. My grandson made a kimono-like jacket with alternating blocks of green and black for a cos play event and his squares came together very precisely and he loves this machine. In other words, this Brothers strong and tough has proven itself to be easy to operate, easy to thread and set up, easy to carry and handle , and satisfying to create without problems and frustrations. It is tough! It is easy to use! It functions well in a great variety of ways! It’s easy to thread and set up. I just bought this latest one for myself to make my granddaughter a rendition of a designer gown she saw. Actually, she wants to make it herself and I’m sure it will be beautiful. This machine has proven itself to me time and time again by many first time sewers and experienced teachers.
