Brother XL 3500 Sewing Machine (Refurb)

I got this machine for some light quilting and sewing and it has been very nice. I have no complaints at all. The long table is priceless and the different stitches work very well and are very nice-looking. I love being able to see when the bobbin is getting low and just how user friendly it is overall. I haven't had it long, but the 25 year warranty puts my mind at ease about durability. The instruction manual is unusually clear and helpful. It was wonderful value for the money and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again or reccommend it to anyone!

I have really enjoyed this machine in the couple months I've had it. It's easy to use, and I haven't had a problem with it yet, even though it was refurbished. I had some trouble with the tension, but I changed to a different brand of thread, and it worked out the issues. (Who knew that thread could have that big of an impact?) It's been a good machine, and I'm glad I bought it.

Even though this machine was refurbished, it carried an excellent warranty. Thank goodness, because mine arrived broken - I couldn't fix the bobbin tension. I contacted the warranty service provider and they sent me another (also refurbished) machine that is working as if new. This is a great machine for someone who sews infrequently but needs something reliable and easy to use.

I really like this machine. It's easy to use, and to understand. It is really built well. This machine dollar for dollar is EXCELLENT!
