The instructions need to be read to figure out which buttons to push for the machine the sew the style desired. The needle threader also takes some practice. However, I can use Singer brand needles in this machine. The needles are easy to change, and the bottom thread doesn't need to be lifted. It is a simple fill the thread and begin sewing. The machine sews straight without much guidance. The easiest sewing machine I have ever used.

This machine super easy to use and has so many lovely stitches which I love using on my creations. For an intermediate machine, the Brother XR9550 sews quite fast and accurately. It makes intricate work much more manageable and longer seams very easy to do. The machine is also quiet and runs very smoothly, even on part with overlapping fabric. I'm excited to get to know this machine more as I go along, but from the get-go, I'm happy with my choice.

Great machine! Immediately made two knit dresses. I hadn't sewn in along time, and totally spaced out needing to change to a ball point needle, so first dress was slightly frustrating, but that was my fault. Also, changing stitch length to 3.5 really helped. After those two things getting changed, it was like sewing through butter. Love this machine. Does not have a "clunking " sound like my Singer I bought about 6 years ago. Looking forward to a lot of sewing.

This was a great find at a very competitive price. I appreciated being able to purchase the Allstate protection plan with this sewing machine. It is an early Christmas gift for my wife.
