Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy to thread machine with its automated threader. When i say i'm a newbie, that means it's only the second time i've threaded a sewing machine!
The xr9550 is the quietest one on the market! Love the needle threader, and the ability to easily adjust the thickness and spacing on the monogram feature. As a quilter this was a step up for me. I donate items to various personalized items to clinics... Read More
This sews as smooth as butter. It takes time to set up the lettering but worth it because it sews a crisp print. The built-in stitch options are displayed on the machine and the led selection box is easy to read, well placed.

Had an old sewing machine i bought at a yard sale for $40.
Shipping
My new machine was delivered quickly and i love all the functions.
I contacted brother cs and spoke with one of their agents, was told that it was past the 14 days allowed for missing parts window.
I received the sewing machine for xmas, and just got to unpacking it in february.
Packaging/appearance
