Top Sewing Machines – 4 Machine that you Should Consider in 2010
Sewing machines comes with a wide array of features these days from computerized stitch selection to easy threading and bobbin insertions. All of these new features and fancy extras can make it difficult to sort through all of the machines on the market to find the top sewing machines that you can count on to have the right features for getting the job done and to perform reliably year after year. These four machines offer all the features you most want while still offering the kind of performance you would expect putting them at the top of their class.
The Brother CS6000i Sewing Machine
The Brother CS6000i sewing machine is one of the more solidly built lightweight machines on the market. It offers 60 different stitch combinations and a fully computerized menu that is easy to understand and use. Extra features that make it one of the top sewing machines in its class include an easy to change drop in bobbin, an automatic threader and a one-step buttonholer that incorporates seven different sizes. When you are ready to step up from your basic starter machine this lightweight beauty is an ideal choice.
The Singer 7470 Confidence Electronic Sewing Machine
One of the most endearing features of the Singer 7470 Confidence Electronic Sewing Machine is that even though it is loaded with many advanced features it has been designed to be easy to use. With 173 built in stitches and a drop in bobbin with automatic needle threading you can be up and sewing within minutes. The easy to read digital display makes it easy to see what your settings are and there are both visual and audio alarms to let you know if the stitch you are using is unsafe. Ease of use and plenty of features puts this sewing machine at the top of the list for advanced beginners.
The Janome Threadbanger TB12 Sewing Machine
If you are looking for a moderately priced utility sewing machine that is very well built and easy to use then the Janome Threadbanger TB12 sewing machine is just what you have been looking for. If you are looking for a fancy machine with lots of stitches, this one is not for you. It does however offer rock solid performance and 12 stitches that include several stretch stitches. The easy to use 4 step buttonholer and easy change feet allow for plenty of creativity and put this utility sewing machine at the top of it class.
The Euro-Pro 9105 New Computer Sewing Machine
Just because you are not an expert yet does not mean that you should not be allowed to let your creative juice flow. The Euro-Pro New Computer Sewing Machine is designed to make sewing lots of fun for both the beginner and expert alike. This is a fully computerized machine with 40 built in stitches and has enough memory to hold up to 30 custom stitch patterns. While overall the machine is quite light it is well built and comes with host of accessories including 12 different feet. It also comes with a very well thought out and illustrated instruction manual and the LCD screen that lets you keep track of everything. Well thought out, superior quality and lots of built in features puts this machine in a class of its own and is perfect for most of your daily and creative sewing needs.
Although there are dozens of excellent brands and models on the shelves today these four rate as among the top sewing machines available. Each of them brings something extra to the table such as the solidly built Janome Threadbanger TB12 with it all aluminum case and metal internal parts and the 173 built in stitches of the Singer 7470. To find the best sewing machine for your needs, you need to decide what level of sewing you plan to do and then match the machine to your needs. All four of these models are worthy of "Best in Class" ratings and would make an excellent choice.

witch sewing machine is better?
brother, janome, singer?
Janome would be my pick from that bunch. But:
http://www.cet.com/~pennys/faq/smfaq.htm
What I want for beginners in sewing:
- a machine that doesn't scare you
- a machine that isn't balky (cheap new machines are often very
balky or need adjustments often and are rarely repairable --
just too frustrating to learn on!)
- very good straight stitch
- good zigzag (4-5 mm is fine, more than that is gravy)
- a method of making buttonholes that makes sense to you
- adjustable presser foot pressure (which helps some fabric
handling issues)
- accessory presser feet that don't cost an arm and a leg
(machines that use a "short shank foot" typically handle
generic presser feet pretty well. Some brands of machines use
proprietary or very expensive presser feet)
If the budget stretches far enough:
- blindhem and stretch blindhem stitches
- triple zigzag (nice for elastic applications)
- a couple of decorative stitches (you won't use them nearly as
much as you think)
- electronic machine because of the needle position control and
because the stepper motors give you full "punching force" at
slow sewing speeds -- mechanical machines often will stall at
slow speeds.
Please go to the best sewing machine dealers around and ask them
to show you some machines in your price range, *especially* used
machines you can afford. You'll get a far better machine buying
used than new, and a good dealer is worth their weight in sewing
machine needles when you get a machine problem -- often they can
talk you through the problem over the phone. While you're trying
things out, try a couple of machines (sewing only, not combo
sewing-embroidery) over your price limit, just so you can see
what the difference in stitch quality and ease of use might be.
You may find you want to go for the used Cadillac. Or you might
want the new basic Chevy. Might as well try both out.
Suggested reading: John Giordano's The Sewing Machine Book
(especially for used machines), Carol Ahles' Fine Machine Sewing
(especially the first and last few chapters) and Gale Grigg
Hazen's Owner's Guide to Sewing Machines, Sergers and Knitting
Machines. All of these are likely to be available at your public
library.
Used brands I'd particularly look for: Elna, Bernina,
Viking/Husqvarna, Pfaff, Singer (pre 1970), Juki, Toyota
New "bargain brand" I'd probably pick, if new and bargain was my choice: Janome (who also does Kenmore).
