Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Brother PED-Basic Software for Downloading Embroidery Designs

Customer Review: Its a great product but I now have to buy they up cd so i can created my own designs.
Summary: 3 Stars

Awesom Product but on they other they really need to up the cds so that you can created your own designs rather than keep spend more money i find disapointing that i now have to find the up to 8.03 verson cds.

Customer Review: OK, but not great.
Summary: 3 Stars

It's high in price for all you get. It works OK, but you only get a one MB card. So it won't store to many designs. For the price, my Wife should have got, the 5 MB card.

The PED card reader is just a card reader that was created by Brother to read/write their own proprietary cards for their sewing machines. The software included is simply a software that you use to transfer pes files onto the cards.

Brother is way behind on updating the software for the PED card writer. Not only do they not include Vista with the card writer, the current version and drivers for Vista - available on their Web site - runs on Vista 64, but all instructions and help are designed for Vista 32 and will not work on 64.

At the same time, unless your brother has a USB port, this is the only solution to adding new designs to your Brother Machine. Just be sure to download the correct software off of the brother help site at welcome.solutions.brother dot com so that you can use this driver with your computer.

So - you have only two choices - buy the brother proprietary card writer or don't write cards to transfer new embroidery files to your sewing machine. [If you haven't purchased one of their sewing machines, you may want to compare prices to see if one with a USB port will serve you better]
