Brother AE2500 Sewing Machine

Product Information

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. The Brother AE2500 has a bit more to offer than a basic beginner sewing machine and is perfect for dressmaking and home furnishings. With 25 stitches it has enough to keep the experienced sewer interested in its capabilities and the 12 stretch stitches it features are ideal for embellishment and working with stretch fabrics. You can also adjust the stitch length up to 4mm and the stitch width up to 5mm. It comes with a number of presser feet and some useful accessories, but is it the right sewing machine for you? The next step for us was to look at all of the products that fall within the Sewing machines category, of which we found 15 products at Argos. So we pulled together all of the prices of these products to analyse the average prices as well as finding the cheapest and most expensive options. With a large majority of Brother Sewing Machines been targeted towards beginners, it should come as no surprise that the Brother AE1700 is designed with ease of use in mind. The automatic bobbin winder is one very newbie friendly feature, this saves you from having to wind the bobbin manually.

Specifications

The accessories included with this sewing machine are the standard ones that you get with most machines. However, there is a darning plate. Due to you not being able to drop the feed dogs on the Brother AE1700 sewing machine you can’t do free motion sewing. The inclusion of the darning plate gives you the option of free motion sewing adding even more versatility to this already very versatile machine. So let’s carry on with our Brother AE2500 Stitch Sewing Machine review and explore the product’s pricing.

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. Four snap on presser feet (a buttonhole foot, a button foot, a zipper foot, and an all purpose foot)

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 If the upper thread of the machine keeps breaking where the needle enters the fabric, it could be that the needleplate or bobbin case have minor damages in the form of scratches and/or sharp edges. These minor damages can cause the thread to break after a few stitches.Due to this been a basic mechanical sewing machine it is by nature simple to use. For instance, there isn’t a LCD screen like with a computerised sewing machine. From a beginners perspective this is a positive as LCD screens and their many functions can overwhelm those that are just starting to learn to sew. The LED light that comes on this machine is extremely bright and illuminates whatever part of your project you happen to be working on at the time.
