Our take on the Brother LX17 Sewing Machine

The Brother LX17 is a mechanical beginner sewing machine with 17 built-in stitches, a four-step automatic buttonhole, and a top-loading drop-in bobbin. It converts to a free arm for cuffs and sleeves and has an LED work light. It suits new sewers and hobbyists who want simple controls and light mending and garment work. Against computerized rivals it gives up stitch variety and speed control, but its straightforward dials and jam-resistant bobbin are easier for first-timers. Owners rate it highly for ease of use.

Questions and answers

Is the Brother LX17 good for a complete beginner?
Yes. It uses dials for stitch selection and length, a drop-in bobbin, and a four-step buttonhole, so there is little to learn before the first seam.
Does it have an automatic needle threader?
No. You thread the needle by hand.
Can it sew buttonholes?
Yes, a four-step automatic buttonhole in one size, set by the button in the buttonhole foot.
What fabrics can it handle?
Light to medium fabrics such as cotton, linen, and jersey. Heavy denim and canvas are beyond its mechanical setup.
Does it come with a free arm?
Yes. The accessory box slides off to expose the free arm for cuffs and sleeves.
Is it portable?
It weighs about 7 kg, so it can be carried to classes, though it is not a compact machine.
Where is the Brother LX17 Sewing Machine cheapest?
At The Sewing Studio, for $147.36, as of our latest check.
