Excellent video ! Brother had automatic thread trimming over 15 years ago on the Brother SE270D sewing and embroidery machine. It has been on dozens of Brother models since then.
5:34: "raises it up raises it down" . I think you meant to say raises and lowers the presser foot. Anyway, I like this demo. Your explanations are very good and the comparisons were really spot on.
I hate the Baby Lock I wish I had never bought it the threader doesn't work and the thread roll lying down has been a problem too. The threader has been fixed three times and still doesn't work. Please don't buy this.
Overengineered junk mostly from Thailand. The tiny B325 is $1500. A Bernina comparable in size, power, and features to the machines described in this video starts at $4000. And that includes board and sensor failures, flickering screens, strange error messages (they're so common, they have a nickname: Gears of Death), etc.
I have a couple Bernina sewing machines - one older and one only a few years old. I purchased a BabyLock Presto 2 in March 2022 and I love it - so much more than any Bernina! The Big B machines are way overpriced and the attachments (feet, etc.) are ridiculously priced! I also have an older a Husqvarna Viking SE LE and and a couple vintage Pfaff machines (not including my collection of vintage Singer machines from 1926 to about 196O). The vintage Singers are great - won’t touch one from about 1960 on!! But I’ve been using my BabyLock Presto 2 since I brought her home and she’s perfect (wish I was as perfect!!). Haven’t touched my Bernina 350 for some time and when I tried it several months ago it started making a weird sound - no reason for this to happen! So she will be visiting a local Bernjna repair for probably a much larger price than I paid for my BabyLock Spa Day! Bernina is trading on their name in my opinion!!!
@@sandybruce9092 The lower end models like the 350 Bernina do not do what the higher end models do. If you just purchased say for example, the 570, you'd be amazed. I bought my top-of-the-line model in the year 2000 and have not traded it off because I love it so much. Baby Locks, I understand, are made by Brother and to me are only a mediocre machine.
Hi Francesca, We respectfully disagree. We value the PS500 as an incredible machine at this price point and since we've started selling this machine in our shop our customers have given it excellent reviews. Of course, we respect and value your opinion, this just hasn't been our experience with the machine. Kind Regards, The Sewing Machine Shop
