Brother SM1704 17-Stitch Free Arm Sewing Machine

This machine is a nice light weight. It is very basic and easy to use. I'm impressed that it handles silky and heavy weight fabrics such as denim, very nicely.

This has been a great machine for the price. It’s perfect for all my mending projects. My daughter even made a simple skirt with it.

Easy to use for beginners and great value. Offers lots of options.

it's mini, and still so powerfull and usefull!!! great great great

I only used once. I can't get the bobbin thread right.

Bought this for a bridal shower gift and she loves it! Works well, and meets basic sewing needs. Dependable.

This is a good sturdy machine that is easy to use. The machine is worth the money.

Problem from the start. First attempt to sew, bobbin holder popped out & material got tangled upin thread. Afraid to even try it again. I'm bringing back to the store

Easy to use and is nice and compact. Would recommend.

This is a pretty good little machine and works fine for the bit of sewing I do now. Very light and easy to carry.

Very nice and easy to use. I like the cool features it has

Bought for my granddaughter .She loves it.Has made stuffed toys and bags.Now working on a skirt

This little beauty does exactly what I need it to do. It’s not fancy, but dependable. I just wanted a machine that does the basics, like my old brother that my daughter now has & uses. This machine is great!

I received this machine as a prize drawing in an online contest. It was shipped to me and arrived in perfect condition. Full disclosure: I own a Brother 1250D and a Brother Stellaire XE1, so I am experienced with higher end computerized machines, and I was a little bit skeptical about a basic mechanical machine. Well, I can tell you, I LOVE THIS LITTLE MACHINE! I love being able to just turn it on and sew! The stitched included are pre-set in width and length, and being able to sew without a lot of decisions is wonderful. The stitch quality is perfect, and making the 4 step buttonhole is very easy, even though I've been spoiled by the buttonhole application on my Brother 1250D. Even the manual threading is simple enough, because of the bright LED lighting. I love that this machine is lightweight enough to move easily, yet still has a metal frame inside. I am looking forward to using this machine as a way to introduce my young grandchildren to sewing. As someone who has sewn for 50+ years, and who has owned several computerized machines with all sorts of "Bells and Whistles", this machine does not disappoint as it has all the features I need to get the job done, without a lot of fuss. This is the machine I'd choose to take to a friend's house for a sewing party (once we are allowed to go to parties again!)

The best birthday present ever love my machine berry much .
