Brother FS40S 40-Stitch Electronic Sewing Machine

Product Information

The thread should pull through the machine freely with no tension. If there is tension when pulling the thread, then the thread may be unsuitable for machine sewing and should be replaced with machine sewing thread from a reputable brand. Precision: The inclusion of convenient features like the needle up/down button, stitch length adjustment, and stitch width adjustment allows for precise sewing. These features enable users to achieve the desired stitching results with accuracy and control. If you do a lot of quilting or free motion embroidery the FS100WT is worth taking a serious look at. With a decent size extension table there is plenty of room to work with and it also comes with a free-motion embroidery foot. Brother FS100WT Main Features Next on this guide we'll be exploring the Uten model 2685A, a computerized sewing machine which is ideal for experiences and amateurs- it's an awesome beginner sewing machine option, so don't be intimidated by all the controls you see. While it isn't the most attractive option out there, it's excellent on quality, durability, versatility, and feature-richness. You definitely get your value for money. Be sure to turn the handwheel so that the mark on the wheel points up before threading the sewing machine.

In terms of build quality if looked after and maintained correctly this machine should last for many years. The 3 year warranty should give peace of mind to any with doubts. Presser FeetLCD Display: They are equipped with an LCD display that provides clear stitch selection and settings information.

What’s missing in terms of stitches on the FS40 is the ability to do letter embroidery. The machine only does straight and zigzag stitches of various styles, buttonholes and embroidered effects for topstitching.Faster Sewing Speeds:This machine is the perfect choice for experienced or professional sewers, as it has a maximum stitch speed of 1,100/minute sewing speed! This is pretty insane, and far faster than many standard (or even heavy duty), and low-end sewing machines out there. This will be our go-to choice for any larger or tougher projects, by far. Automatic Needle Threading: With its automatic needle threading feature, the Brother FS40 eliminates the hassle of manually threading the needle. This convenient functionality saves time and effort, especially for users with visual impairments or dexterity challenges.

There is also a dust cover that comes with the FS100WT. The dust cover is by no means special in any particular way, but it is a good accessory to have, especially with a computerised machine. Stitches: Brother continues to impress me with the extensive range of features they incorporate into their sewing machines, particularly the wide variety of stitches available. For beginners, I typically recommend machines with more than 15 stitches as it allows them to familiarize themselves with different stitch types and experiment with various fabrics. This not only nurtures their creativity but also enables them to practice unique designs. The inclusion of 40 stitches in the Brother FS40 opens up possibilities for a greater range of projects, which I find highly advantageous. Adjustability: In addition to the handy pressure adjustment and feet interchangeability, you can adjust both the stitch length, width, and direction of sewing. You can activate the simple reverse sewing feature to reinforce edges, hems, and tassels. The dial is available for you to play around with stitch adjustments. Buttonhole Styles: The Singer 9960 boasts 13 buttonhole styles, while the Brother FS40 offers a more limited number of buttonhole options. Materials: The machine is constructed with durable materials, ensuring longevity and stability during use.Extra Convenient: This machine has every nameable feature to make your life easier when dealing with heavy fabrics, and other tough projects. This model has an electric motor (not common in industrial motor machines), which is designed to heavily power through materials. Value for Money: One great thing about the Brother FS40 is that there are a lot of presser feet included (a specialised foot will allow you to broaden the range of your projects), so there's no need for you to fork out and buy more for specialised purposes. You also get 40 stitch types to select from which include; 5 buttonhole and 16 decorative stitches. It Looks Great! We've rambled on about the appearance so much, but let's see what really makes it special- the durable metal frame is crafted from stainless steel, making it both stain-resistant and scratch-resistant. The body is resistant to accidental damage from needles and other sharp objects, or even in the rare case of dropping this machine. The colour scheme is pretty universal for most home interiors too, with the flattering shade of grey and accent red hue to add a pop of retro-glam.

Drawbacks of Brother FS40 Sewing Machine

In my opinion this sewing machine is best suited for those that spend a lot of their time quilting. For those that like the look of this model, but don’t really need an extension table, needle threader or as many stitches as it offers, the FS40 is a great and more affordable alternative. Stitches: With this option, you benefit from a range of 18 different stitch designs to choose from. You also get an auto four-step buttonhole function, which is a great touch to add some personalisation to your projects.
