Customer Reviews
- Don't know why the thread is always broken.
We bought this sewing machine for our coming baby. I hadn't seen any other reviews before I bought it. The reason for me to choose this machine over others is the reasonable price and the reputation of the brand. After spending one afternoon figuring how to use it, the needle suddenly broke. Fortuately, there are another two in the accessories bag. THe main thing makes me worried is that if I sew fast, the thread will be broken. I kind of feel sewing speed should not be a problem to cause the thread broken. Maybe I am not proficient in operating this machine. I hope someone will give me some advice on how to solve the problem.

- Brother Xl 5500 Sewing Machine easy to use
I had this machine up and running in about 10 minutes. If you've sewed before its super simple. Runs fast and makes nice stitching. This machine is good for anyone, especially a beginner. I think what you need to do to prevent your thread breaking is adjust the tension on the thread. It should be easy to do on a machine like that, I'm sure the manual can help or you can go to any local fabric store and they can help you
