Customer Review: Nice Case! Summary: 4 Stars
The case is somewhat bulky but there isn't any way around that when you are trying to accomodate several types of machines. I ordered a Brother SE-400 machine and was looking for a case to put it in to protect it from the curious fingers of my toddler. I ordered this case thinking it was universal to all Brother machines, at least so that it would be safe. Then, I was just browsing though the reviews and saw all of the complaints about how big, bulky and ugly the case is and one where the dimensions were mentioned. My SE-400 is a bit larger than other portable machines because of the embroidery base. I confess, I didn't think to compare dimensions when I ordered it. I've spent the past few days wondering if I would need to return the case because the machine dimensions were larger than what the dimensions for the case are stated to be. When my machine and case both arrived today, the first thing I did was take my machine, all the accessories and try to put them into my case. Thankfully the 4x4 embroidery base is removable and the machine, accessories, embroidery base, foot pedal and manuals all fit in very well! I was very impressed. The case, admittedly, looks like a cat carrier but I might let my toddler loose with some markers for a 'one-of-a-kind' look, or I might decorate it myself. The case is largely a rectangle so will store in a corner, closet or nook fairly well, and can take some light weight on top of it without damaging structure. I'd have given this 5 stars if there were a way to secure the machine inside, so as not to shift while moving the case. However, some gorilla glue or super glue and a few dog collars (or other adjustable straps with clips or fasteners on the end) and you can customize the case any way that you want. I like the idea of being able to place the straps/machine where they work best for me. All in all, a great, basic cover. Good price, too. I think I will spruce the case up somewhat and add in those straps, but otherwise, I'm really happy with it!
Customer Review: It fits and then some Summary: 4 Stars
I got this case for my Brother CP7500 sewing machine with extension table and hard cover. This case is large enough to hold everything with a bit of room to spare. Granted I had to wedge the table in between the base of the machine and the case, but it works ok.
I was a bit concerned when I got this because I heard some rattling around inside the box. Once I opened, I saw a rectangular piece of plastic and 2 press on washers. It didn't take long to figure out where they go. The plastic is a cover that hides the place where the latch goes through the bottom part of the case. I just slipped it back in and was good to go. Next the washers. The only place where the could go is on the plastic nubs where the handle goes through the top. Pushed them on and voila... all done. I don't know how these got loose inside the box... but wanted to share in case this happens to you.
This case is light but seems pretty sturdy. A-OK for the price I think.
