Brother AE2500 Sewing Machine

Product Information

Price is another really important factor for analysing the quality of Brother AE2500 Stitch Sewing Machine vs other products in the Sewing machines category. It’s obvious, but you will need to set your expectations of quality based on your budget and the price of the product you’re looking at, against the price of alternatives. In total there are four presser feet included with the Brother AE2500. In terms of usage they are more geared towards making clothes. This is one of the reasons why I have on numerous occasions recommended this sewing machine to those that are looking to take up sewing mainly for that reason. It can also be converted to free arm for the sewing of cuffs and sleeves. It doesn’t matter whether you are new to sewing or have been doing it for years, threading the needle can be a hard task at times. Unfortunately, the Brother AE2500 doesn’t comes with an automatic needle threader it is however a simple process to thread the needle. You can find full instructions on how to thread the needle on both the instructional DVD and in the users manual. Portability The first is brand. Looking at the brand of the product is often a really good indicator for judging product quality. For example you’d expect a much higher quality product from a brand known for providing excellent quality than you would from an unknown or even a budget brand.

The accessories that come with the Brother AE2500 aren’t by any means anything to brag about. However, it does come with a darning plate which is a positive. Due to the fact that you cant drop the feed dogs on this machine the darning plate allows you to perform free motion sewing. To be honest I may be a bit biased when it comes to Brother sewing machines as they are one of my favourite brands. That been said, I don’t think there are many people that will tell you that the stitch quality of the Brother AE2500 isn’t up to standard. The Brother brand have a solid reputation for manufacturing affordable sewing machines that have excellent stitch quality. This has a lot to do with the high-quality motors that they have and the maximum speed of this machine is 1000 stitches per minute. Bobbin System

Weighing 6.7 Kg this is by no means considered a lightweight sewing machine. This is however a good indication that it has many parts made of metal rather than plastic, which is always a good sign as metal parts are far more durable. If you are thinking about taking it to sewing classes just be sure that you don’t have to walk too far before you get to your class. Included Accessories In total there are four presser feet included when you buy the Brother AE1700. These are more geared towards making clothes, which is why I recommend this machine as a good choice for beginners and any budding fashionistas out there. It is also suitable for home furnishings and similar sewing projects and is a quite versatile machine.

As you can imagine, pricing is one of the most important factors of any purchasing decision. We can find the perfect product for our needs, that fits the brief in every single way. But if it doesn’t fit our budgets, we simply can’t (or at least shouldn’t) buy it. The Brother AE1700 is a traditional basic sewing machine with qualities that make it well-suited for those new to sewing. With 17 different stitches a four step button hole and automatic bobbin winder, it has the basics covered for a good beginner sewing machine. It comes with a number of accessories and presser feet. In addition it features a twin needle allowing you to get more creative with decorative stitches on a wide range of fabrics.Just before we get into the detail of analysing the price of this product, we want to briefly highlight the importance of setting yourself a budget before you spend too much time shopping around for a suitable product. It’s all too often that we get carried away when shopping and find ourselves buying a fantastic product, but probably actually overdelivers on what we need and therefore costs a lot more than we should have spent. So spend a bit of time looking around at the sort of price you can expect to pay for products in the Sewing machines category and use that alongside your own financial situation to set yourself a budget.

If you are truly a beginner, then you do not really have a need for superfluous decorative stitches. While decorative stitches can be tempting, having them on your sewing machine can increase its price. The truth is that you do not need that many stitch choices when starting out on your sewing journey. The Brother AE1700 comes with a 51 watt motor similar to the Brother AE2500. Compared to the similar priced Singer 1507, which has a 85 watt motor, the difference in power is noticeable. That been said, you will have no problems sewing through multiple layers with this machine. Brother are well-known for their high-quality motors and although they may be less powerful in terms of Wattage than similar priced machines, they are always capable of doing their job. Stitch Quality and Speed The brand of product you buy can vary in importance, from person to person. Some people will of course be much more particular about the brands they will use. Whilst others aren’t interested in the brand and are more interested in the overall quality or price of the product itself. Thankfully Brother is a brand that many customers have grown to love over the years and is very popular for items in the Sewing machines category. More information on quality can be found in this old but still very helpful article from Harvard Business Review.Four snap on presser feet (a buttonhole foot, a button foot, a zipper foot, and an all purpose foot) Find out why Brother AE2500 Stitch Sewing Machine scored an incredible review score of 8.8 out of 10. Time and time again I have let it be known that I have personally always preferred a top loading bobbin than a drop in bobbin. That been said, this machine does have a drop in bobbin. This isn’t a bad thing just a matter of personal preference. Next up is material.
