The Brother NQ3550W is a sewing and embroidery combo machine aimed at hobbyists who want both in one unit. It carries 291 built-in stitches, 258 embroidery designs, 13 embroidery lettering fonts and 5 sewing fonts, all driven through a 3.67-inch color LCD touch screen with on-screen editing. Wi-Fi lets you send designs wirelessly through Design Database Transfer. Its 8.3 x 4.1 inch needle-to-arm space is roomier than many entry combo machines, though it sits below Brother's larger hoops and bigger screens on premium models. Buyers rate it highly, praising the touch screen and stitch variety.
