 The Best Deal February 15, 2010
Alexander (Huntington Beach, CA, USA)
The machine is just wonderful - for the price you want to pay it's the best deal of both sewing and embroidery you can get. Although the machine arrived in an open box, it works great and I have never had any problems with it. For somebody who has used a sewing machine before, this one is extremely easy to learn. In addition, this Brother's creation will be a dream for those who used to work on simple mechanical machines. Some its functions make your sewing life so much easier!And the embroidery unit is so pleasant and easy to work with. Moreover, you can download quite a few designs from Brother website for free!Although you still will need stabilizers, software, threads, more bobbins,and of course feet and designs, it is really a sweet deal for the money it costs.
 So far, so good January 28, 2010

This item arrived very promptly. I have not yet had a chance to use it extensively, but was impressed with the ease of use for the embroidery part of the machine.
Bought this for my wife January 27, 2010

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3NS9BS1UXISBX Well This was a gift for my wife. I did not know what sewing machine to get so I just read a lot of reviews and went with this one. When she opened it up she loved it. but still the real moment is when she will try to use it, and see if I did any good in my pick. Well she has made 3 baby dresses so far( I think they call them pillow case dresses) and 3 pair of shoes to match. I asked her several times does she like the machine, and she simple says she loves it!!! It is not loud either. I can watch TV while she is about 10 feet away (in the same room) with no interference with my hearing the TV. Believe it or not I even used it. To get ready for the big game (Alabama fan here, Roll Tide) I made 10 rally rags. Hounds tooth fabric on one side and a red alabama print on the other side. The hounds tooth side I embroidered "Roll Tide Roll". Sewed them right sides in, then reversed them insides to out. Put a decorative stitch on the edges. They turned out great. (sorry for improper sewing terms here). Of course my sewing was not the best (lol) but they are cool looking. It was a hit at the championship party we went to (tried to insert a video, if it worked). So it is easy enough that I could use, but had everything My wife needs to do her stuff. I love the easy threading and automatic needle threader. I also bought her the card reader, but she has not used it as of yet. Now she says she wants a serger, so I am here at Amazon looking at the Brother Serger. All in all, I would highly recommend this.

I purchased this model after many many months of deliberating even considered the $3000 vikings. However, being that I never embroidered before, I decided it might be overkill for a novice. The Brother is first of all very reasonably priced; the features and capabilities of this machine are enough to keep someone interested for many many years of sewing without becoming bored; it is very quiet; easy to use; both bobbin & upper threading are very easy to do; it comes with a huge assortment of items from bobbin covers (which I never knew existed) to various types of needles and accessories. It is also lightweight and compact, but don't be fooled by the small footprint cause this machine blows me away every time I use it. I can't imagine why anyone would have complaints or doubts about this model - it even has 3 speeds, not to mention the oh so handy needle threader. I have owed a singer machine for years and this SE350 puts the singer to shame as far as I'm concerned.
I think what people are annoyed with is the fact that they don't understand the difference between hardware(the machine itself) and software and the functionality of each. Yes, machine embroidering has cost me more money than
I anticipated, but I chalk that up to my ignorance of what machine embroidery really involves. For all those who want to do fancy monograming, creating their own designs, changing what a design looks like, etc. they need to understand that it isn't the machine that does this, but the software. So, if these are the kinds of things you want to do, you do need to purchase software and maybe more than one type. What I will say is that I absolutely
HATE the PED basic. I have to use to it because I do download designs, but it is an awful product. The instructions are not very thorough because the booklet has to print the same things in a zillion other languages instead of discussing other important issues. I chose this product simply because it was the least expensive and of course I got what I paid for. This is my only frustration with the embroidery process...NOT the machine itself. Happy sewing!
Excellent sewing machine!!! December 28, 2009

I purchased the SE350 as a replacement for my wife's now broken 6000i. This is a completely redesigned machine according to her, and can do jobs that the older 6000i couldn't. It doesn't get stuck that often, and can do light/heavy fabric. The embroidery feature is a beast of it's own, as one can do many designs including lettering, pictures, e.t.c. without even being near the machine. Touch-screen feature feature is nice too have.
The most important thing is for the needle upper to match with bottom, and using the right size bobbin.
Excellent machine for the money that includes all the features + more!
