Amazon.com Review

A good starter machine for garment construction and mending, this sewing machine from Brother includes 25 built-in stitches. These range from zigzag to shell tuck to blind hem settings, and there's also an automatic four-step buttonhole function. In addition, a twin needle setting lets you sew a double line with two colors of thread for a smart decorative touch. The machine's design and features are straightforward and user-friendly, with some settings--stitch length and width--automatically set for simplified operation. It also sews in reverse and has dial-adjusted tension for tidy work. Sophisticated home tailors will find this machine too basic, but occasional and beginning sewers should get plenty of use from it and not much frustration.

Threading the machine is fairly simple, and winding the bobbin is speedy. The sewing machine's work surface switches from flat to free arm for cuffs and pant legs, and the interchangeable feet have a snap-on construction. An integrated storage area keeps extra feet, needles, and bobbins tidy. Built with a handle and a work light for ease and convenience, the sewing machine comes with a zipper foot, a buttonhole foot, a button-sewing foot, a set of needles, a twin needle, a set of bobbins, and a darning plate. Brother includes a 1-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

I can only sew with a basic ability. I needed a machine to save time on basic repairs and very simple projects that took too long to sew by hand. This machine was very easy to learn and use. I am not overwhelmed with options that I dont know how to use anyway. I have only run into a few problem (all caused by me) and I was able to figure out what I had done wrong easily. It is a great machine for learning or for someone who only needs to sews on occasion.

We bought this sewing machine for a child. I hadn't seen any other reviews, so I bought it thinking it might go back. I am happy to say that it works very well. It would be suitable for a beginning sewer-child or adult. It has a nice range of stitches and all the standard features that you might look for in a basic sewing machine.

For the money, this machine works fine. It can easily be used for projects such as making clothes, curtains, and alterations. It's a good basic machine for a child to learn on. I'd pay the extra $20. and bypass getting a "toy" sewing machine. They don't work very well and make for a very frustrating experience.

I bought this mainly for hemming my own pants. Figuring that I would spend roughly $10US to get my pants hemmed by someone else, I decided I would just buy an inexpensive sewing machine and do it my self -I mean after ten pairs of pants, it's paid for itself, right?

So I did, I bought the Brother LS-2125 and now I hem my own pants, and can complete some upholstery projects I've been working on.

In the past, I've heard horror stories about many inexpensive sewing machines, and I wasn't ready to drop $400US or more on one, so I figured I'd give this one a try on whim -and now I am very happy with my LS-2125 as I've had no problems that weren't my own fault (RTFM).

And as someone who hasn't used a sewing machine in over 20 years (my grandmother taught me when I was a kid) I can honestly say that I would reccomend this as a beginner's sewing machine.

As a side note, now my girlfriend wants me to hem her pants (and some of my friends have...Read more
