Brother CS6000I Sewing Machine Review

Ever heard the phrase "under-promise and over-deliver"? When they created the Brother CS6000i computerized sewing machine, they took that to heart. You can hardly find this kind of functionality anywhere else for under $200.

It has been a major hit with beginners for several years, earning over 800 consumer reviews online, more than any other sewing machine available on the internet. While some find the more high end computerized sewing machines to be difficult to learn, this one is not. Set up and operation are very simple.

Brother CS6000i Stitch Patterns

For its price, it offers an incredible number of built-in stitches. A total of 60 stitches are included - utility stitches for straight stitching, mending, clothes making, and hemming as well as a number of decorative stitches, heirloom stitches and quilting stitches. The total count includes 7 styles of one-step buttonholes.

Brother CS6000i Presser Feet

The sewing machine comes with seven snap-on style presser feet: Buttonhole, Overcasting, Monogramming, Zipper, Zigzag, Blind Stitch, and a Button Fitting foot.

Additional presser feet fitting low-shank machines can be purchased separately but the included selection is more than sufficient to get started. As you progress and take on quilting or craft sewing, a walking foot might be a nice addition.

Brother CS6000i Features

To start with, there's automated stitch control and speed adjustment that don't require the use of a foot pedal (although one is supplied). Most computerized models cost far more than this one does. The stitch count and selection are fantastic. It easily accommodates quilting, comes with accessories that have to be purchased separately for other machines, an automatic needle threading system, twin needle sewing, an extra wide work area, and a hard cover case (which is often not included with most machines in this price range).

Beginners like that they can learn to use this machine for basic projects but can also expand their horizons with other types of sewing whenever they're ready. An LCD screen displays your stitch selection along with the presser foot required for that stitch. There's an extra wide work table to help with larger projects and one-touch Start/Stop and Reverse buttons.

An automatic needle threader is built-in and the extension arm can be removed for free-arm sewing. Upper thread tension can be adjusted with a dial on the sewing machine, and the speed control button can limit how fast the machine moves eliminating the risk of pressing too hard on the foot pedal during such tasks.

The broad selection of stitches and easy operation make this a very flexible machine. The Brother CS6000i computerized sewing machine is as popular as it is because it offers incredible value and consistent performance at a very reasonable price.
