Brother PQ1500S

Perfect machine
I have had this machine for 10 years now. It has never skipped a beat. It says in the manual if you can get it under the presser foot, it will stitch it. And yes it does! I made a large bag of wool and velvet, stabilizer and bound, many, many layers some thick some thin, it didn't skip a stitch. I've also sewn chiffon with this, same excellent results.
Dont expect any fancy stitching, it only does straight stitch, use the recommended needle, organ, cheap as.I purchased extra feet, from the sewing industry. It is a commercial machine for the domestic market. It is a workhorse. And YES I would purchase another.
They have fixed the low light problem on the new models, so it is a perfect machine.

This Machine Is The Best!!
I bought a Brother PQ1500S to put on a quilting frame, both worked perfectly and were all I could want as I don't have the need (or budget) for a longarm quilting machine and frame.
Seeing this machine was doing such a great job on the frame, I decided to try FMQ (free motion quilting), and again, was not disappointed. Mmmm, surely this machine can't be 'this' great? Or can it? Next to make some new clothes and used a wide variety of fabrics from slippery to sheer to thick to thin and the results were always the same. Perfect!!

ne now sits on the sewing table and is my main 'go to' machine for everything (except, obviously, zigzag) and I've bought many additional feet which gives even more options jeans and other top stitching on upholstery projects, being just one of them. I would highly recommend this machine to anyone who wants a high speed, fully capable sewing machine that will plough through whatever you put under the foot and do it with ease! It's a simple machine to use and maintain and super quiet as well, which was a surprise for a machine which does 1500 stitches per minute. Stitch quality is perfect with stitches straight and true, no matter what type of fabric you have chosen. While my machine is the 'S' model (with incandescent lighting) I've swapped the globe to an LED as I prefer a white, bright light for sewing. A simple change that only cost a couple of $$$ and took all of a few seconds. The foot pedal is so exact that it's possible to do 'stitch by stitch' sewing, it also stops the second you release the pressure on the foot pedal. I have never had a single problem with this machine and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.1 comment

es. FMQ problems are yet another tension and/or needle problem and can also be caused by not moving the quilt in a smooth, consistent motion. It takes practice! ;-(
