Junk!
It stopped sewing, I was told under warranty by Brother but turns out it’s not. Only one year and I’ve had it 18 months. Junk!

My old machine lasted me 15yrs +
I've owned a brother machine back in 2008. I had it clear up until last year. The fact that that machine lasted me over 15 years before I had to get a new one, is phenomenal. In the process of preparing my machine., the features made sewing more enjoyable. Also, the instructions educational.

Great for beginners
I am very new to sewing and this was the perfect machine for me! I’m mainly making small accessories and clothing items. I haven’t worked with anything thicker than a few layers of fleece so I can’t say if it is good with denim and other heavy duty fabrics, but it handles everything I’ve worked with very nicely so far. It’s super beginner friendly with a lot of useful features. For example, learning how to thread my machine was a breeze because of the very simple, easy to follow instructions for doing so. You essentially just follow the arrows with your thread. I really love the needle threader, it saves me a ton of time. I often have issues with having to rethread but that very well may just be an error on my part. This machine also has a light over where you work. Even if you don’t get this machine I highly recommend finding a machine that lights your workspace! Overall I love this machine and would recommend it to anyone who is new to sewing and doesn’t plan on working with heavy duty fabrics often. It’s a fairly simple machine as far as I’m aware but that’s what makes it so easy to use.

A REAL REVIEW
I like my SM3701. I have used it for minor sewing such as hemming up jeans and shirts and jacket pockets and pillow cases and a few other little things. I am a 69 years old male and this is my second sewing machine. I had trouble threading the needle and sewing with my old machine but not this one. The only con i have is the foot peddle not reacting to the applied pressure even enough. I would recommend this machine. it's easy to use.

THIS IS ALL YOU NEED
LOVE this machine. I have only had it for 2 years and I have made countless projects. It's perfect for a home machine. I feel like I have gone around the world twice with this machine....with no problems! I have made wallets, bags, quilts, shirts, decorations, etc.

No instructions
Where are the instructions? My bobbin keeps jamming and now the foot has fallen off and I can’t find out how to get it back on. Do better, brother!!!
