Brother LS14S Metal Chassis Sewing Machine

Product Information

This is an excellent option for new sewers or anyone who wants a second sewing machine to take to a class or club. However, this also means you have very little control over the stitches, so a hobby sewist would find it limiting.

There’s a good distinction between the instructions for winding the bobbin and threading the top half, so you don’t get them confused. Another challenge with this machine is that you have almost no control over the stitch length, width, and needle position.

There is also only one buttonhole stitch option whereas some more advanced machines will have several shapes, but a simple rectangular buttonhole is all you really need, after all they’re usually hidden underneath your buttons! My Brother innov-is a150, for example, has a consistent stitch length no matter what speed you’re going. When it comes to setting up and threading the Brother LS14 sewing machine has been designed with beginners in mind. You can’t leave your accessories in there loose or they’ll fall out every time you remove the front cover.

However, Brother do include an instructional DVD, so there are plenty of ways to learn about the machine if you struggle with the fold-out manual.
