About this deal

A four step buttonhole stitch helps to create a precisely sewn buttonhole on your fabric of choice, simplifying projects that require such precision. While there is a vast market for specialised sewing machines such as machines for quilting, there is a bigger market for domestic sewing machines. This is due to the increasing number of DIY goers who want to be able to make their own clothes and crafts in the comfort of their home.

Accessories included: zig-zag foot, buttonhole foot, zipper foot, Needle Set, Bobbins X4 one in machine oval screw driver, and foot controller. As like most of Brother's sewing machines, the LS14S features a traditional metal chassis sewing machine. This not only gives the machine the ability to support all of its internal mechanisms with ease, but the rigid metal frame provides stability to prevent accidents. On the Brother LS14, the maximum stitch length is 4mm, and the maximum stitch width is 5mm. The stitch length on this model is adjusted By Stitch Selection Only. The stitch width on this machine has No Stitch Width Control. Note that the adjustable stitch width control on this model appears to be fairly limited, and may not affect all of the inbuilt stitches. The needle positions on this model also appear to be limited and may only be controlled using the inbuilt stitch presets.Another advantage of an LED light is the fact that you will not have to replace the bulb or replace its batteries so it lasts longer. A drop in bobbin system means that unlike other methods of loading a bobbin, this machine is jam proof. A clear view cover allows you to see how much of the bobbin is left during sewing, meaning you can plan your time accordingly. While there is a detachable front section on the machine, it can not be used for storage due to the compact design. While this does not really affect the machine, it can be a little inconvenient and is kind of a pointless feature. See here for other ways to store your sewing equipment.

The LS14 has a sturdy construction, ensuring its durability and longevity. It is lightweight and portable, making it easy to transport and store when not in use. It is powered by a foot pedal control, which gives users precise control over the sewing speed. To support the threading, an LED light is provided. As this is an LED light, there is no yellow light to distort the colour or your thread so there are no unexpected surprises once you have finished your project. In our review of the Brother LS14 we will be taking a closer look at each of the individual features and seeing how they measures up in terms of quality and value for money.

A simple and easy to use sewing machine. The Brother LS14s sewing machine has 14 stitches and a 4-step buttonhole. Compared to some other similar priced sewing machines the Brother AE1700 has a good selection of stitches. In total there are 17 stitches all of which can be found in the image below. If you are looking for even more stitches from your new sewing machine then the Brother AE2500 should be on your radar, it has 25 stitches and only costs a few quid more than the AE1700. Freehand stitching is not available on this sewing machine as the feed dogs that grip your fabric underneath cannot be lowered allowing freedom in stitching. A four-step button hole feature is easy to use although more complicated than a one-step buttonhole which is usually found on mostly medium range sewing machines and not on budget sewing machines. If you require a machine for this purpose the LS14 is not the machine for you! Whether you are having trouble threading your machine, can’t work out how to change the stitch settings or just want to make sure you’re getting the most out of your sewing machine it is always best to have a copy of the manual on hand.
