Cheapest Sewing Machine at Walmart Review | Brother LX 3817 Unboxing | Part 2 Not Sponsored 

Part 2!!! Keeping it real by showing that I can mess up too!!! You don't have to be perfect to use this machine!!!!

What a great review! We hope you love your new ewing machine. 😄

These are now 88 dollars . Still a great deal cheaper than its peers.

I have this machine and I LOVE IT! It is a workhorse. Have had it for over 6 months and it has paid for itself several times over and I use it A LOT!! thanks for the video I am now a subscriber ❣

I wanted to say thank you for the review on this machine. I bought a more expensive Brother originally but I'm a truck driver and wanted something that was inexpensive that I could take on the truck with me as I'm just learning to quilt and sew. This machine is perfect in that it does exactly what I needed to do. Also if it gets damaged in the truck I'm not out several hundred dollars just $72 plus tax. thanks for a great throw review and an awesome video I can't wait to see more I just subscribed.

This was a great review! I'm ordering it for a friend for Christmas, but damn! I want one for myself! Thank you, Blue.

I would be interested in finding out how long the machine lasts. I tried this machine and it is so lightweight that it feels like a toy. For a first machine, I guess it would be alright. This machine is made out of plastic and I'm sure, with use, the parts will warp and the machine won't work the same. I was just wondering how long that would be. Keep us informed. Thank you. I just subscribed. I have a much more expensive machine but many years ago I started out with a Brother machine. The machine lasted for years of heavy sewing until my son dropped it down the stairs.

I just bought this machine. Thank you I was able to set it up and use it. I love it. Thanks again. God bless you.

This is literally the best review and tutorial video I’ve ever seen. Thank you now I know how to use my machine and what it can do!

This a wonderful review Blue! I bought this machine largely due to your interesting and enlightening review!

They come with soooooo many problems. Timing belt problems...bobbin problems....these machines are not for someone who sews frequently

Thank you!! I was worried about getting it for my first sewing machine

I had actually looked at this machine in Wal-Mart this week, wondering how it would perform. Asking some of the same questions you answered. What I was looking for is a light machine I could move easily between art tables. The low price caught my eye since it is a second machine for when I don't want to take the time to move to my sewing area. One question I have for that wasn't answered is if it works well on paper. Thank you for the video and you time. One slight suggestion, putting a flashing warning for those that have seizures would be nice. Please don't take that as a critcism, those not sensitive often forget it can cause problems.

Ok full disclosure: I’m about to turn in my man card lol. I’m a short guy in my 50's and am absolutely sick of having to pay someone to hem every single pair of pants I buy. So I’m on a mission. This was a fantastic tutorial! I’ve been agonizing over what to buy. Now I know. Thank you so much for the help and the review 👍👍👍👍👍 Subscribed 😁 By the way, how will it do on nylon canvas? I have a pair of dirt bike pants that have a seam in the leg that has torn loose, and would love to repair them. Over the boot dirt bike pants start at $80 and go up, so this machine would pay for itself in one job. And can I hem sleeves with it?

I'm using a second or third hand $10 Kenmore machine to teach myself how to sew. But for $72 I cAn totally upgrade! I can't wait to run to Wally world in the morning! Thanks Blue! 💙💙💙

Absolutely love this tutorial 🙌🏾 I used this machine to sew 100s of garments on it 😍

By the way there's also a thread cutter on the left hand side of the machine so you don't have to use the scissors all the time !!!

Hello! I'm considering buying this sewing machine. During the vodeo, you showed some samples of stretch stitches. What needle did you use? the one that came on? Also, I would like to sew some satin fabric with it. Do you think that it will work? Thanks for sharing the review and not editing the bobbin situation!

Thank you for the review. Thank you, too, for your honesty. Many would have cut out the bobbin error and wouldn't have shown their mistake. Agree with your assessment. FWIW, machines like this one are easier to learn the basics of sewing. I have a Brother with many bells and whistles, including 150 stitches. A much larger learning curve. Especially, when one is trying to learn so many other aspects of sewing from cutting out patterns to pressing seams, as we sew. Subscribed as I'd like to see more of your approach to modest clothing and more. Thanks for sharing. PS: Please consider omitting the video editing "special effects" as they detract from the points you're making with your videos. Thanks in advance.

Difference in price in Canada is huge! Walmart doesn’t sell this model but on Amazon it is $220

Thank you so much I haven’t 🧵 since middle school and I learned so much

Has anyone had any problems with their bobbin case jumping out or just the bobbin not working properly??

I'm looking for a cheap little sewing machine do you think it's a good one

Just got the biiit more expensive version o.o well, i got it because i need to be hable to make smaller stitches and to have more control over it sinse i mostly make doll clothes, but i've been sewing for over 6 years now, finally got the guts to get a machine o.o wish me luuuuck

Thank you. Going to buy a new machine. I need to hem and alter my daughters uniforms. This gives me hope that I can do it myself.

Thank you for the video helped a lot!! Even 5 years lady 😊

Have been really inbetween getting it all the bad reviews are consistent w them all relating to tension problems.. help

Loved the tutorial..👉 New subscriber here 💞😍

I have one of theses. I love mine. I've had mine for 4 years now and still going

Thanks for your great instructions I don't sew stretch material or sew hems as I do patchwork and just sew straight but might have a go now. From Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺

I just ordered one im glad I found you thanks

I have a little Brother machine that I bought about ten years ago. I don't use it much-- I really don't sew anymore, but other than it being a bit loud (similar sound to yours) if compared to my "big" machine, I'd recommend it to anyone needing a lightweight machine that does pretty much anything. And where stretch fabrics are concerned, I'd definitely take it over my big one.

can you show how to make a double sided hank?

Thanks for sharing this information. Very helpful.

I've been wanting a machine for so long but I am on a monthly fixed budget. I had dithered back and forth whether this machine was worth it or if I needed to take the time to save for a more expensive one. Thank you so much for this review, it has made the choice for me and I'm glad to say it's the one that I can afford with the least struggle.

Bought it, picking it up in two hours. Thanks!

Gracias por compartir es de gran utilidad para mi que no sabia como cambiar in zigzag

I bought this machine refurbished (with warranty) from Walmart online...I haven't used it yet, but iam now..God bless you for just taking the time out to sharing this machines with us...😊

My spool holder is broken from my sewing machine will that affect my sewing?

When I got back into sewing after 20 years, I bought a Brother sewing machine from Walmart to start with. It works very well since I only sew a few hours a day several times a week. You got to treat the machine the way it was meant to be used or else it’ll break down quickly. Since then I’d upgraded to other machines, but I still keep that little Brother machine for classes and sewing bees.

Can you quilt on the 3817 machine? Do I need a walking foot or a needle for quilting on this machine?

Thank you for this review, I just bought this machine.

I purchased this machine today, I needed a back up machine since my regular machine is in the shop. I have a Baby Lock Ellure Plus that needed a tune-up & general maintenance. I had other things to mend and fix, so this machine is a great back up for me. I unboxed the machine and like it very much. It allowed me to complete the projects that I wanted to finish. This machine is excellent for a beginner sewer or used for a back up machine. I give it a thumbs up for a first or second machine.

Can’t wait for mine to get here! Great tutorial!

Thank you so much for posting this. Very helpful. And you have a lovely voice

i dont wanna make feel sad, but that machine is a little bit cheaper online :s but anyway, i highly appreciate this lil review-tutorial. and i will buy it just because you convinced me that is a good machine.. thanks a lot!. I´m gonna subscribe by the way. :)

Nope not for serious sewers

How is it for zippers?

Was it a good sewing machine? Does it last? I’m a beginner and I was wondering if this one is good

What a fantastic video for a complete beginner. I was speaking to a man who had bought the Australian version of this machine in the hope of learning how to use it. I have recommended your videos to him as they are very clear, you show how to use All the functions of the machine, you show how to fix a problem if it arises. Well done!

Thank you for thiiiiiis

Thanks so much for this video !! I’ve never sewed before and I’m attempting to turn a robe into a dress. This video has really helped me for just getting it prepped !

Por favor el precio

I have that same machine and love it!

Hi, thanks for your videos, do you know the difference between brother MX 3817 and Brother RLX 3817A?, thank you!!

thank you for sharing.. i just purchased this machine, and now I know how to work with stretch fabric. and you have a new subscriber.

Funny how the internet linked me to you, the same night I bought this very machine(only one on the shelf, in blue). I had been doing online and store research for a beginner's option and came to the same conclusion you proposed, just because it costs less, doesn't mean it's not effective. Mine was $76, a bargain any way I look at it. Thanks for parts 1 and 2 of this review. Love your humor and am a subbie. Stay blessed.

What happened with your bobbin and how did you fix it? My top thread won't pick up my bobbin thread

Love your special effects too. Is your hubby behind the camers.p.s. I subb.😍

Was talking with my daughter-in-law today about buying a sewing machine. I am a total beginner!! To quote her words: "Get a Brother mom, it is not expensive and very easy to use." Really glad I found your Part 1 and Part 2 videos. Thank you for such detailed instructions. New subscriber!

Literally when you got your fabric stuck so did I 😅😅 at the same time and I have a heavy duty need haha I was trying to test out thicker fabric tho. HUGE MISTAKE With this machine

What about sheer fabric,can it sew very thin fabric?

If I was looking to sew canvas would this work? If not, how can you tell if a machine can handle heavier fabrics?

I wonder if this machine works with tulle and sequin fabric.

Great review, thank you! I was wondering if it can sew leather and if so how many layers? Thank you!! X

I bought the brother jx2517 a couple of years ago at Wal-Mart. I think it was $69.00. my machine had jammed and I needed to finish a while it for Christmas. overall I like it! it's simple to use and has all the necessities. the one thing I don't like is that the bobbin seems to jam. it could be operator error. I unjam it and keep going. other than that it's a really good machine. perfect for a beginner. when I bought it I had the intention of finishing my quilt and returning it. but I really like it so I've kept it and haven't used my other machine since. so that should tell you something

Just bought this machine and can't wait to use it! Thank you for this tutorial!

Thanks! Great video. You helped me decide. *Liked*

Nice video. Do you know what hard storage case will fits

Hi! How do you control the speed? I add a little bit of pressure on the foot pedal but it still goes so fast!

Can you ruffle with this machine?

Absolutely love this tutorial 🙌🏾 I used this machine to sew 100s of garments on it 😍

Thank you. I've never owned a sewing machine ☺ 66 year old beginner. Great instructions.

Love your review of this machine

Ive been trying to buy this machine but it IS OUTT OF STOCK EVERYWHERE

Hola cómo puedo sacarle el hilo ala máquina se a cia el motor la podré utilizar a si ayuda

Hi I just bought this machine to learn sewing and I found your video love the review and you got a new subscriber.

Thank you... great job!

Do u still like the machine or did u get a newer one 🤔

Do you think I could make a prom dress with this? I would be using a stretchy purple satiny material and maybe some lace appliqués or something like that

Do y’all know if it’s real heavy? I don’t have a table that my sewing kit can stay on all the time and this seems to be perfect if I can move it around without breaking my back

You are delightful! Thanks for the thorough and entertaining review!

What number is your tention at!?

Just got this machine!! I'm so excited

Can you use this machine on heavier material like blue jean and heavier materials..if not do you have a machine you recommend.

Yay buying tomorrow xoxo

Great personality, I love your videos 😁

Well, your review made my mind up to get this model. tfs.

Thank you for this you’re so sweet! ✨☺️

What thread do you recommend to buy for this?

Yep true spend. money doesn't mean any thing, thank you

Hello Stacy I have a question how do I change the stitch lenght onthe brothers lx3817. thanks so much

Price.

Thanks !

Can you surge with this machine

Hi my top thread is not picking the bobbin thread tell me solution

I just bought mine yesterday and it was stitching great. Now it won't catch any stitches. I've checked EVERYTHING. I've changed the needle size, checked the bobbin, checked the top threading, changed the tension, tried other stitches, and still have no luck. Please help!

I just got the brother gx37 for $59 on clearance at walmart! I couldn't believe my luck, after researching online looking for my first real sewing machine. For full price I would have gotten much less of a machine for 59 bucks. Just a matter of right place, right time, with 60 dollars in my pocket.

Your husband is a lucky man! Great Review by a beautiful intelligent witty women. Thank you!

Very, very helpful!
