I have been using a very old embroidery machine for a few years now and it has recently packed up. I have heard a lot of good things about this machine, brilliant next day delivery. The machine itself is excellent, the quality of the stitches is very important to me and the results speak for themselves. I would recommend to everyone.

I was recommended this machine by my local haby shop! After lots of research I found GUR Sewing Machines, and the webiste is great, easy to use. Found the machine I wanted, called them up and spoke to a friendly young man, who was very knowledgeable about sewing machines, placed my order over the phone and recieved my machine the following morning. Great machine, lots and lots of great features. Very pleased with my purchase.

I bought these machine about a week ago, absolutely amazing! I have been saving up for an embroidery machine, and finally I have one. Made a visit up to GUR Sewing Machines in search of a new machine and the staff were very knowledgeable. I wanted an embroidery machine as I've always wanted to make embroidered curtains and cushions! Let the fun begin! Would recommend to everyone!

Just getting used to the machine. Its the 1st embroidery machine I have ever used. There is alot more to learn but I am finding it easier than I thought I would. Up to now I love it.

I purchased the Brother Innovis 350 Special Edition after I accidentally put my Husqvarna Viking Lily US current sewing machine into the European outlet which burned out my motor.
I thought that this machine was my all time favorite, until I purchased the Brother Innovis NV350, I love the simplicity, all the options, and also that it sews through 4 layers of cotton without missing a single stitch.
I also love the automatic threader and the fact that I don\'t have to manually pull the bobbin thread up.
This machine is incredible and I would recommend it to anyone that enjoys sewing.
Thank you Brother,

This a very easy to use machine, quiet in use and produceing a perfect stitch. There are more than enough stitches for my needs and I sew a great deal.
It is light to handle but is stable in use.
This is an easy to set up machine, and a joy to use.

as a newbie sewer i found this to be an awesome machine for me. the brother brand is so easy to use and this machine has almost everything i want (need an overlocker now!!!)

I bought one of these machines 5 years ago and have never looked back. I started a home based embroidery with this machine and it paid for itself within 12 months.

Great machine, very happy with this after 1 year of use and would not hesitate to recommend it. I have almost every accessory that you can buy, and find it the be an easy machine to use and develop my skills with.

I have now had this machine for some months and since the bobbin case was replaced I cannot fault it. The down side is when you switch it off you then would have to re-programme the stitches you previously used. It does not remember your previous stict. Post it notes are great for this. Generally the machine is great.
Jacqueline Herbert (Plymouth)

How I agree with the previous post! I had to change my original bobbin case two weeks after buying the machine after I attempted some free motion quilting. That cost me another £20 but luckily my sewing shop allowed me to have it at cost price. I like the machine in general but the tension problems are just too difficult at times. You have to adjust the dial almost to 1 before it starts to be possible to achieve a good stitch when free motion stitching. I\'m now considering a bernina and swapping this in part exchange. Would not recommend it.

I love this machine, it is perfect for the beginner and more advanced sewer, I bought when it first came out and was my first proper machine, it has many brilliant features that you can\'t find on some more expensive modals, I loved the idea you could buy so many extra feet which I bought all, my fav being the sidecutter to turn in to an overlocker (only two thread though) and 1/4\" foot, I have since upgraded to a machine with a longer arm as I mainly do patchwork and quilting, but I did cry buckets when I let her go,

Bought this as I\'d had a brother ped 180 and wanted to upgrade. It\'s brilliant! The instructions were clear, the sewing and embroidery are top notch and I have downloaded designs from the Internet and created some lovely wallhangings, bags etc. If you want to replace an existing sewing machine with one that can create embroidered designs then I would highly recommend this one. Happy sewing!

I love my machine! I is very easy to use and I have enjoyed exploring the effects different stitch lengths and widths produce. I have quilted a double bed size quilt without much difficulty.

I have had this machine for a couple of hours and then the bobbin case started to jump out of alignment. After 40 years of sewing I know what I am doing so knew that I was threading the machine correctly. I also read the manual from cover to cover and looked at threading instructions on the internet which confirmed I was doing ok. However this machine has been back to the retailer and now they are going to replace it. I am not that confident that all will be ok, although I hope it will. No machine should be this fussy. I have always owned Janome in the past and have been pleased with them. When the needle hits the bobbin case turning it into swiss cheese this is not right. I have reservations about this machine, only time will tell when the replacement arrives. So far not impressed.

I\'ve had this machine for one year now and I think it a a great machine. I use it mainly for patchwork piecing and quilting. I bought additional items like the extension table, the walking foot and the darning foot for free motion quilting. I haven\'t had any problem until very recently when the drop feed locked up while I was free motion quilting.

The Janome 423S is one of the best machines I have ever used. It is made of solid metal and does a smooth job. It has a lot of features that I find come in handy very often personally. There is no bad points for me about this sewing machine: recommended from the bottom of my heart.

easy to use, will handle all types of fabrics , fantastic light weight makes it very portable and easy to store, hard cover as standard yet another great budget machine from janome , with the best back up and support network i have ever found, online tuturials , and free ones from the dealer network.
once you get used to setting tensions , this machine really handles like a dream, small but still a tough little guy.

I\'ve had my machine for a couple of days now and it looks quite good to me. I am new to sewing and I am still trying to familiarize myself with everything but it\'s all rather easy to understand. The machine arrived on time and it is much cheaper here than in France.

I\'ve had my Brother Innov-is 350 for a week now, and it already feels like I\'ve had it forever! It\'s so easy to use and self-explanatory; I can highly recommend it, even for beginners!

Firstly do not hesitate ordering from GUR the machine was delivered within 24hrs, amazing service, internet shopping as it should be.
I haven\'t had chance to fully explore my machine yet but I really like the up down stop and speed control feature.
The only downside is the lack on inbuilt needle threader, such a shame this isn\'t included as it does speed things up.
I have taken 1 star off for this reason.
6/5 for GUR\'s delivery speed!

first of all, this machine is much cheaper in the UK, than it is in The Netherlands.
It is a great machine, with a lot of features. I did not have the time yet to try everything but the one thing I love already is the automatic thread cutter. It is easy to use. Really a machine I would recommend to my family and friends.

A super machine, lightweight, very easy to use, comes with carry handle and cover. For basic sewing but with extra accessories for button holes, zips etc., perfect for me.

Excellent value machine with a great variety of stitch combinations. Easy to use but noisier than my Janome 6019.
