Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Brother LS2125 25-Stitch Function Free Arm Sewing Machine
Customer Review: Nice little sewing machine
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this machine as a starter for my nieces who had never used one before. I didn't want to invest a lot of money until I knew if they would stick with it. This machine has served its purposes well. It was easy to understand the manual and has plenty of features for a beginner. I'm now considering buying another so each can have their own.Customer Review: Started out strong, but failed in the end
Summary: 2 Stars
I thought I was getting myself a real gem based on reviews I'd read, unfortunately I was wrong. I have owned this machine for just under 2 mos and it's already having issues w/the lower bobbin. I called Brother and though helpful w/troubleshooting, we couldn't fix the problem and I was instructed to take it to the closest service center which unfortunately is 36 miles away...would not really recommend this machine based on this experience.Customer Review: Not so great
Summary: 2 Stars
This machine worked well at first on really simple stuff but is not good for the long haul or anything more complex. The thread becomes a rats nest on the bottom and messing with the tension can take years! This is great if you will always use thin fabric and sew in straight lines.Customer Review: Fell Apart and no warranty support
Summary: 1 Stars
I received an LS-2125 as a gift from my daughter and was initially very pleased. Until I tried to use it to sew a button hole in a shirt. I had to adjust the button hole stitch but when I touched the adjustment knob, it fell out of the machine (it is plastic. why companies use plastic for machined parts escapes me).
I contacted the company for warranty service and they informed me I would have to ship it in at my expense and pay for return shipping and any repair work that is performed...this is MORE than the cost of the machine.
I also got the distinct impression from both the customer service folks at Brother & the nearest authorized service center (which is over 70 miles away) that I got what I deserved for buying their low end machine. The service center owner said he would be glad to sell me a machine that is reliable and works...sooooo let this be a warning! Do Not Buy Brother Sewing Machines!
Customer Review: Horrible.
Summary: 1 Stars
Cheaply made and difficult to use! The threading mechanism is cumbersome; it requires a pair of tweezers since the movable arm does not come high enough to get the thread in. This is either a defect of this particular machine, or the entire model. The sewing thread and bobbin thread often tangle and jam up the machine, making a simple mending job into a mess. I have tried adjusting tension but there is no remedy to this situation. I do NOT recommend this machine.
