NEW Brother Embroidery Machine Buying Guide 2023 | SE2000 vs SE1900 | Is it worth it???? 

Thank you for this! I originally got the SE1900, and never unboxed it. I went back with it and paid the extra for the SE2000. This is my second embroidery machine. The biggie for me is that it trims the thread. It’s so much easier and quicker. Your tutorial is great as always .

Great comparison. Thanks again Jeanette. To make my SE1900 wireless I purchased a 16G Sandisk wireless USB drive for $40. That is the feature I care about the most.

This is a very good comparison of the two machines. Thank you!

Hi Jeanette. I actually just bought the SE2000 at the Houston International Quilt Show. I was able to get it with the Quilt Show special for $1,300. It was actually just delivered … can’t wait to get it set up. Thanks for the breakdown of the benefits. I have been using a SE600 so I’m excited to have a 5x7

I have this machine and love it! Before I got this machine, I was using much older machines. There is no comparison.

Thank you for you video I think you did a great video and answer all my questions you are great I’m going to start following you. I will get that machine. Thanks to you.

I agree trimming jump stitches is a huge improvement.

I love my SE 1900 I sew/embroidery for fun. I wouldn’t upgrade for those few nice perks. I don’t use my machine a lot and it would be wasteful to buy a new one. If I ever did upgrade. I would want a bigger area to embroidery on. That would be my perk. This was a great video. I had no intentions to upgrade I just wanted to watch your video to support your channel and give it a thumbs up.

Great review- been thinking about getting an embroidery machine but cannot commit

Thanks for this review. One thing I wish the display could show is part of the name of the file along with the photo when embroidering. I wonder if it has a USB port at all in case your Wi-Fi is down. Cutting jump stitches is awesome!!!!

What is the max stitch with for the regular fancy stitches..?? You give a very good overall comparison…THANK YOU…SO MUCH

Jeanette so glad that you told me you had thumbs up on Brother SE2000. I was saving to get a SE1900 but if the SE1900 goes down to $900.00 I will get that LOL. but thinking getting the SE2000

My SE 2000 arrived 2 days ago, used it yesterday... LOVE IT! The very first thing I noticed is how much quieter it is than my SE 1900. Jeanette, I must thank you for all your wonderful videos. Your tutorials have been instrumental in my new embroidery business :) I wholeheartedly agree this new machine is worth the extra few hundred just for the jump-stitch cutting function alone- if you embroider regularly.

Hi Janette!!!! I have been watching your videos for about one year now, and have learned a lot from your Embrilliance tutorials!!!!! But I have been very interested in the Brother brand of sewing machines. I have no Brother Sewing/Embroidery combo machine. What I actually havefor several years now are Bernina brand of machines, and recently got a Janome MC 9500/300E pair. But I want a machine that can be easy to use, and to be loaded with as many features as possible so not to have to upgrade soon. I have read some comments here that the SE 1900 can be converted to WiFi by using a Wireless 16 GB USB Drive, but there is no ArtAspira Software on it, and the iBrothery Embroidery Library is not offered with the 1900, only with the 2000. So will you say that it would be better in my case to go for the SE 2000 instead of the 1900? I am also willing to give one of my Berninas as Trade in for the 2000, so the price could drop somewhat. What is your opinion in my case?

I ordered the Brother SE 1900 and received instead, the SE 2000…. A free upgrade! This is my first sewing/ embroidery machine. I’ve owned a Singer 6105 sewing machine for 40 years

Hello, I'm considering embroidery. I would most likely choose the Brother SE2000. What supplies would you suggest I get to start out?

i have a random question does the se2000 have the same set up where im able to use the 5x12 for multi hooping? or large designs i should say or have to purchase another hoop

I would like to embroider on ready made t-shirts & sweatshirts. Can you do this on either the se1900 or se2000? If you cut threads in between colors, will the design unravel? Love your analysis.

The SE2000 description shows to have a bigger 3.7" LCD screen...as compared to SE1900/1950's 3.2" is this correct?? Very good review!

I have a Stellaire a d wish it could receive designs directly from the software in my computer to my machine.

That's a crazy price!! I paid a little bit more for my single needle machine and it has a max 7.9x11 embroidery area!

I returned the SE2000 2 times from Amazon because it had rough edges around the Freearm, and a Needle Clamp that would not release the needle unless you wiggled it. Plus, those Freearm edges were unfinished, and the rough edges made the fabric “snag”. Also, the Corners on the freearm that surround the needle plate, had a “Triangle cut out of them, and that Triangle was finished with a rough sort of caulk or paint. The plastic is very soft on this machine, and I think that is why the edges were prone to being jagged. It’s as if the machine that cut that edge had a dull blade. And then Brother didn’t even seal the edge. I have the SE600 which was $300 from Walmart, and it had better workmanship than this new machine. I was so disappointed. The one thing that I did like about the machine was that the hoop was made stronger, and it had a sort of “brushed” finish that allowed it to grab the fabric better. I have been asking several Dealers if the hoops that come with the NQ1700E and the NQ3700D were improved as well. But, they all said that no, the hoops have not changed. I am just not sure about this because the SE2000 Hoop was also a bit darker than the older hoops, and many of the pics of the 6x10 hoops are now darker as well. So, at this point, I am a bit confused as to what to even get.

Does brother make an embroidery machine that uses a larger hoop but not expensive?

Hi. I haven’t heard you mention the se1950. I just bought it but haven’t opened it yet. Do you not recommend it?

Recently ran across your channel and found this one very interesting. I notice you have not posted for a while and imagine family matters have consumed your time. SMP has just reduced the SE1900 to $599.00 as it is being discontinued.. Just curious ...what do you use your1900 for since you have the big machines? Sewing? Thanks for this very informative video.

A little disappointed that the biggest hoop is the 5x7 (noting I can use the 5X12 multi position). I was hoping Brother would increase the hoop size. I guess I will stick with my SE1900 for now.

I almost bought a SE 1900 a few years ago. I put it off and ended up buying yet another sewing machine which works great. But….. I seriously still want an embroidery machine. This may be the machine I get. I’m still debating.

Do you put the name on the end where the tag is?

Just a warning to anyone who sees this comment: my machine does not embroider at 650 stitches per minute for designs I create myself. For the installed designs it does. I contacted brother, checked and double-checked the speed controller and embroidery settings. Strange how this would happen on a supposedly new machine. The only thing brother could suggest is to visit a service center which is BS since, like I said, this is a new machine.

My question is, when will brother be coming out with the SE 2100... that's when I'll purchase a new sewing machine... then again that's when the SE 900 and 2000 prices will be reduced....saving me big time 💰💰💰🤑🤑🤑💸💸💲💲 🤣😂🤣

This or the Brother SE1900?

I won't spend that much; I rather get a 16 needle machine and call it a day

If I knew more about it, maybe because of the jump stitch. But that extra $400 will go a long ways for the supplies, since I’m new to embroidery. 😊🫶. Thank you Jeanette
