Consumers Digest Magazine, which offers its readers opinions on everything from cars to microwave oven based on extensive research and testing, has listed two Brother International Corporation embroidery machines as ‘Best Buys’ in the recent Jan./Feb 2007 edition. The models, SE-270D and NX-650Q, were named ‘Best Buys’ in the embroidery and computerized sewing categories.The SE-270D is an embroidery machine that has many distinct features including ninety-seven built-in design patterns, ninety-eight stitch functions, five lettering fonts, ten button hole styles, and easy to thread cassette. The machine has a warranty of twenty-five years. “The new Brother SE-270D makes it even easier. Just insert the thread spool into the machine’s cassette, and the machine does the rest. This threading system is exclusive to Brother,” states the Consumers Digest Magazine article.
The NX-650Q, a computerized sewing machine, received similar praise. Its features include sixty-seven stitch patterns, three lettering fonts, ten buttonhole styles, fourteen needle positions, and the ability to hold up to ten customised stitch patterns. This machine also comes with a twenty-five year warranty.
“Convenient features such as Brother’s easy to use threading system are just one aspect of machine’s functionality which is attracting attention in the blooming home sewing market. Today’s sewers—both new and established—crave the surge of satisfaction that comes from being creative. Time-saving features like automatic threading simply mean more time for sewing and embroidery,” said Dean F. Shulman, senior vice president of Brother and head of the company’s Home Appliance Division.
These new machines will join a long line of Brother sewing and embroidery machines that people have trusted for many years. Brother has manufacturing plants in many regions including the US, Canada, Brazil, and Argentina.

the chance to review the image is great for checking everything over one last time before printing. the time between reviewing the print and delivery was another positive, taking only a couple of days. my friends were really pleased with the finished items. unfortunately i was out when the courier called. he didn't note the date or time of his attempted delivery on his card and he hadn't filled in when or if he would attempt delivery again. on repeatedly phoning the company on a friday between 4:50 and 6 i got no answer. i then tried again on the monday morning, but once again i got no answer. after phoning clothes2order they resolved everything. i realise this is outwith the control of clothes2order, but it soured an otherwise excellent service.
