Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Brother XL5500 42-Stitch Function Free Arm Sewing MachineCustomer Review: Don't know why the thread is always broken. Summary: 3 Stars
We bought this sewing machine for our coming baby. I hadn't seen any other reviews before I bought it. The reason for me to choose this machine over others is the reasonable price and the reputation of the brand. After spending one afternoon figuring how to use it, the needle suddenly broke. Fortuately, there are another two in the accessories bag. THe main thing makes me worried is that if I sew fast, the thread will be broken. I kind of feel sewing speed should not be a problem to cause the thread broken. Maybe I am not proficient in operating this machine. I hope someone will give me some advice on how to solve the problem.
Customer Review: Love this machine Summary: 5 Stars
I have owned this machine for 5 years and have never had ANY problems with it. I am a pretty experienced sewer and have never had any issues with this. I read some of the other reviews about the thread breaking and I have never had any problems with that. I have sewn everything from easy pillows to clothes on this machine and it works great.
Customer Review: Thread breaking Summary: 3 Stars
I think what you need to do to prevent your thread breaking is adjust the tension on the thread. It should be easy to do on a machine like that, I'm sure the manual can help or you can go to any local fabric store and they can help you
Customer Review: Terrible Summary: 1 Stars
This machine never worked correctly. The bobbin never worked and the thread always broke no matter what I tried. I just threw this machine in the garbage. I will not buy Brother again. Back to Singer.
Customer Review: Brother XL5500 easy to use Summary: 4 Stars
I had this machine up and running in about 10 minutes. If you've sewed before its super simple. Runs fast and makes nice stitching. This machine is good for anyone, especially a beginner.
