    Bought as an upgrade, very pleased so far. It’s smooth and quiet and had the features that I was looking for.

    Have just started using sewing machine practising various stitches on machine, so far very impressed with what it can do, haven’t managed to work the self threading part yet.

    Great machine for the price I paid which was a snip at 259 with over 100 of it.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersFantastic machine.
    I was using an old 90’s Brother machine for my baby clothes business, but finally decided it was time to go digital!
    I took me ages to decide between this machine, the Singer 7470 and the 404 Quilters Edition, mainly because I wanted to use an alphabet stitch. They were all similarly priced in a sale. I read poor reviews on the Singer’s alpha stitch, and the 404’s didn’t sound so good but had plenty of extras (luckily it went up in price as I was planning to buy it) . However, I finally chose the Brother for the designs and extension table, plus the alphabet stitch is pretty decent, despite one font and one size (photo attached).
    The other decorative stitches are nice, and the machine sews beautifully, and is pretty quiet for the most part.
    Top loading bobbin makes life easier, but unfortunately tension is not auto and still no joy with the auto needle threader…haha. Absolutely love sewing with this machine, highly recommend it!

    Brilliant and versatile machine

    First digital sewing machine I have owned but much better than my old mechanical ones. I’m not too fussed about the ‘easy threader’ but love the top loading bobbin. It’s lighter than my old machine and comes with a dvd which is useful to help set up

    Amazing machine, great with quilting and regular sewing. Only down side for me is that the lettering is small – no way of altering the size, but the other designs and stitches are fantastic. Easy and quick to thread, winds bobbins up with ease and can be used with foot peddle or on/off switch. Great machine and glad I invested in Brother.

    I got this machine using split payments through Amazon and it was great to spread the cost. the machine itself is wonderful. It is so easy to operate and if you have previous knowledge of sewing machines its a great next step up from entry level machines, with all the stitches you could possibly want/need. I would not recommend for heavy duty sewing such as for bag making where you are sewing through PU leather or similar but as an embroidery machine it excels! I use it for free motion embroidery, quilting (both for the patchwork and the quilting of the finished quilt), and even have done garment sewing on it. I would recommend, even at full price.

    A good all round machine which does an array of stitching! My only downfall is that the threading up on it is not plain sailing as my other sewing machine… I also thought that the thread holder seems a bit flimsy ..

    This is not a bad machine but there are a few things I’m not too keen on such as the buttonholing which isn’t good enough as it doesn’t seem to seal the buttonholes properly so I have had to revert to my old manual machine.

    Bought this about 2 months ago as a follow on machine from my very basic machine and it is fantastic. I just love the smoothness, needle threading and ease of use. I struggle with a foot pedal so using a button is excellent. My only criticism is the case, rubbish fit and dont make the mistake ofremoving the polystyrene in the case, it’s supposed to be there. Really great machine

    Golden Review Award: 15 From Our UsersI am a complete beginner this is my first sewing machine. I was at first a bit worried that I perhaps should have got a manual machine to start with, as this might be a bit too advanced for a real newbie. But I unpacked read the quick start up guide (10 min read) then I set it up, within an hour I had felt like a pro, I am still learning as it has lots of stitches and features, that I haven’t yet tried, but I have had lots of fun making simple things, and I am confident that the more complex things will be simple to master with a few practice runs. I have wanted a sewing machine for ages, and was advised to buy a cheap manual machine, but this one looked more exciting, so I pondered for a while if I was trying to run before I could walk, but in the end I just went for it. So whether you’re a beginner or a pro, this machine is brilliant and I am so happy with it, I would say to anyone to take the plunge and get this machine you certainly won’t be disappointed, the automatic needle threader works fine, but a bit fiddly, so I have used it but find it just as easy to thread the needle manually, but it does have this feature if you wish to use it. And in my research on sewing machines the Brother make seemed to be in the top 3, so I assumed it was a good make, and I have been proved right.

    I’m an absolute beginner at sewing and bought this machine when it was on sale for 219.99 instead of buying a cheaper model with less features. It is a great machine and is really easy to load, work and pack away. I wish it came with a carry case but the dust cover does a wonderful job all the same.

    This machine made me fall in love with sewing!

    Had this machine for just under four years, the last year it has been noisy, very clanky and thuddy. This weekend it ground to a halt. The inner arm mechanisms are made of plastic and they have ground away over the years and on my last project warmed up and caused the machine to totally freeze. Will cost to much to repair so will end up as landfill 🙁 if you want a good machine for a few years this is for you, if you can do a few hundred pounds more upgrade. Overall I have been very happy with the machine, it has helped me to create some beautiful outfits.

    This is my second Brother machine. I compared many other machines before returning to brother. I have upgraded my old one which has served me well for many years and made many quilting projects. However compared to this new edition it seems like a tank. I have familiarity but this is lighter quicker and has many added features to stimulate my creativity. Very happy and cannot wait to begin my next project. Excellent value for money.

    Golden Review Award: 17 From Our UsersA smart looking machine with an intuitive design. New to sewing, I worked out how to thread the bobbin and needle with ease and found all of the different sewing options very easy to manoeuvre between with the use of the ‘+/-‘ buttons and the key on the side of the machine. The extending surface is a blessing as well as the three controlled speeds. I’d say worth the money I spent on it.

    Having worked in the textile industry, I have sewn on and off all my life with all kinds of sewing machines,
    Now I mainly do mixed media textile artwork, needlefelting, appliqu and freemotion embroidery,
    It is such a versatile machine, easy threading and bobbin change, so easy to use,
    The only thing is the light, I think it could be a lot brighter and I wouldn’t have needed to use an extra clip on light to assist me.
    Otherwise I would highly recommend this machine.

Just line it up where you want it and pedal it! Can’t sing its praises enough!

    Top loaders are so much better than front loader bobbins it allows you to see how much thread you have left. This has easy rewind.
    It would recommend this machine, I previously bought another machine that I returned and it cost a lot more and this machine is far superior and offers far more stiches.

    Golden Review Award: 81 From Our UsersThe machine was a bargain at 140 off the british prices. It came from amazon eu sarl. I was worried it might be wired for the eu, but it was fine here in u.k. The instructional dvd couldn’t be played though as it is in in a format my computer and laptop won’t recognise, however it doesn’t matter as the instruction book is pretty comprehensive. I bought it mainly for the amount of inbuilt stitches and it definitely comes out well in this respect. It has the usual brother threading and top loading which I love. I already own two top of the range brother machines but the range of fancy stitches on the sewing machine is somewhat limited probably because you can build your own. The other machine is embroidery only. Added to this is they are way too heavy to transport to classes. This little machine is ideal in this respect to as it is very light. It comes with a hard cover which eliminates the need for a carry bag. The tension was spot on and needed no adjustment on arrival. It is a little noisy, sounds a bit mechanical really. There is no thread cutter, but there is a semi automatic needle threader which works very well. For the price I paid, I am very happy. I reckon with regular maintenance, this little beauty should last many years. There is a table attachment, which is a little on the small side for quilting but definitely worth having. I would recommend this machine to anyone.

It really is worth the money.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersThis is without a doubt the best sewing machine I have ever owned. I have gone through five sewing machines and they all left me dissatisfied in one way or another. Not this one. It has eased my frustration with sewing machines to a great extent.

    The Brother FS100WT is a computerised machine. It is quite good to be able to see the stitch selection, length and width on the screen. The number of stitches is a massive plus for me – 99 regular and decorative stitches and 55 character stitches.

    The machine is very sturdy. The tension is right and the threading works perfectly. I have used it to sew light and heavy fabrics and I have been pleased with the results every time.

    The instruction booklet and DVD are tremendously useful. They provide a very clear explanatory guide on the different stitches and different machine accessories. Speaking of accessories, the range provided along with the machine is really nice to have. The sturdy cover provided is great for protecting the machine from dust, etc.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersNever owned or used a sewing machine before I bought this machine with Amazon Lightening deals, I was looking for a cheap beginners machine so I could get into sewing, so when I saw the deal for this machine I snapped it up as it would have being usually out of my price range. So I am writing this review as a near total novice, but after using the Brother FS100WT now for about three months I have to say I love this machine. I am now at the stage where I am making T-shirts and other clothing for my family and I have to say this machine has made the learning curve a breeze, it has so many options and is so easy to handle and operate and comes with loads of accessories, very good tutorial DVD and instruction booklet.. As a total beginner all of these things proved very useful for me especially the automatic needle threading. The machine itself appears to be manufactured to a high standard and it just looks and feels like a quality product.
    To anyone in my situation who is thinking of taking up sewing I would like to say I find my new pastime highly rewarding and not near as time consuming or difficult as I thought it would be, and it might be worth while stretching your budget for a slightly better equipped machine such as this one if possible.
    I would highly recommend this product.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersMy wife bought this half price on Black Friday, it was delivered on Saturday and it was up and running on Saturday afternoon. She loves it and she is gradually learning how to use it to it’s maximum potential. Good quality machine with loads of features, particularly at the price she paid.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersI am very pleased with this. I am a competent sewer but wanted to update my machine. I’ve used every aspect of this in the few weeks I’ve had it, all except the button hole feature.
    I find it easy to use and the letter embroidery works very well.It is also nice and light.
    The hard case it comes with was a nice surprise as I hadn’t realised it came with one – however, it is a poor fit and trying to carry the machine with the case, with your fingers through the carry slot at the back, feels very awkward with a case that doesn’t fit snugly. I think I will switch to a sewing machine bag instead, which feels wrong when it is supposed to have a hard cover.
    I like the automatic needed threader, but it can take several attempts for it to catch the thread to pull it through the needed. Because of that and the bad design/fit of the cover, I am giving it 4 rather than 5 stars.

    I really like this machine . I bought a Husqvarna machine (similar spec) less than a year prior to purchasing this machine and my brother is definately the machine of choice. Never know if its me but I always seem to battle with my sewing machines – this one is coping with me nicely so far !

    Golden Review Award: 24 From Our UsersSo far.. ‘Sew’ good This is my very first sewing machine, so naturally i was excited by also a bit intimidated, but this machine is fab to use. The speed controller is such a great feature so that even if you put the foot pedal to the floor it will only go very slow or however fast you want.. Great! So far i have made a simple envelope cushion case and a teeny tote bag, very very simple but i have never sewn before so i have to start somewhere. I think this machine will see me through many years.. Complete beginner to more experienced. I love it. I got in a lightening deal for 199 what a bargain – daughter of DL

    So far.. Sew good.. ;)

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersI got this during the black Friday sale and I love this machine. The step by step instructions and the dvd make it very easy to set up. My sewing machine skills are basic and I found inserting the bobbin and threading the machine incredibly easy and I love all the different stitches the machine has.

    Golden Review Award: 31 From Our UsersI bought this on Black Friday and love it!! As a relative newcomer to sewing, the machine I had previously was basic and manual. Having an automatic needle threader is so much better, as is automatic width for stitches. The machine itself is well made and sturdy and really simple to use.

    I will update my review as my new found skills grow and I get more out of this machine but so far, I’m pleased with my purchase.

    Golden Review Award: 13 From Our UsersThis machine has loads of settings and as I bought this on Black Friday I got this excellent machine with loads of functions for the price of the basic machine. Still working through all the functions but has been excellent so far.

    Golden Review Award: 13 From Our UsersGreat machine. A lot of features and easy to use. A good upgrade to my old machine. I like the new way of threading machine. Much more reliable. Overall I have no complaints.
