LOVE this embroidery machine!!
After a LOT of research and comparisons I decided that the Brother PE770 was going to by my first embroidery machine. I have to say it was once of the best purchases I have made in a long time, and Amazon had it at the perfect price. I watched for a few weeks and snagged it when the price dropped! I sew handmade cosmetic bags, pouches, and accessories and was looking to embroidery to further personalize these items. I learned to sew from a young age using Brother machines, and my current machine (also purchased on Amazon) Brother CS6000i Feature-Rich Sewing Machine With 60 Built-In Stitches, 7 styles of 1-Step Auto-Size Buttonholes, Quilting Table, and Hard Cover is Brother. Aside from paying for maintenance and cleaning every 6-12 months, I have had no major issues with any Brother machine. The Brother PE770 creates great quality embroidery designs without the need for special embroidery software. So many designs are already included with the machine. However, I LOVE the fact that there is a USB port on the machine for easy upload of designs. I can easily create my designs and upload via USB and resize and position on the machines digital screen. I definitely recommend this machine to both beginners or avid sewers/crafters. I've used this for applique and stitched embroidery designs and always have a beautiful outcome! I suggest researching and purchasing multiple hoops (I use the 5x7 hoop for most everything) and stabilizer for projects.

Great machine for hobbyists and professionals! I am in love with my Brother embroidery machine!!
I am absolutely in love with my Brother embroidery machine. It is by far the best embroidery machine at/around this price point. For those who are considering the Brother machine with the 4"x4" embroidery area (as I did), you should really save up for this one instead. Just like any new hobby or skill you are trying to acquire, you will not be an embroidery master on your first try... and the only thing a prior background in sewing helps is for threading, which is easy anyway. For any of those who experience problems with the machine -- it's not the machine's fault but rather user error is more likely. I have thought it was my machine at times, but it was always something I was doing (or not doing). Make sure to test with different stabilizers, fabric types, stitch design densities, toppers, needle types, hooping tensions and techniques, etc. There is also a Facebook group dedicated to this machine that is an excellent resource, as well as many YouTube videos and blogs. I have owned this machine for just over six months and I am so happy with my purchase and embroider everything! I have also used the embroidery thread and pre-wound bobbins by Embroidex (also sold on Amazon) with great results! Edited to add: Even after 6+ months I'm still learning more about the best ways to use this machine! I just learned a new tip that I thought I would pass along. Sometimes the spool holder can be finicky. If your top thread is repetitively breaking (not just once in awhile), and you've already tried replacing the needle and re-threading the machine, put your thread spool in a clean coffee cup behind your machine instead of on the spool holder. This should solve this issue -- at least it has for me!

Worth Every Penny
This machine is very easy to use. I was embroidering within a couple of hours, after reading the manual and winding some bobbins. Excellent stitch quality. And the USB interface makes transferring designs from the internet a breeze.

I am enjoying my new embroidery machine! It came within a few days of my order and I am pleased with it after a week of using it.

Haven't had much of a chance to use it yet. One of my quilting/embroidery friends got me started and I embroidered a towel with a letter. It turned out great, so now I'm doing more practicing. Real easy instructions to follow. I know I will continue to enjoy it for years to come.

I have been a sewing for over 30 years. So, this year I decided to add embroidery to my outfits. I began reseaching many machines from Viking, Singer, Baby Lock, and Brother. After much comparison, I bought the Brother PE 770. It has been User friendly. On the day it arrived I was able to begin embroidering after reading the instructions. A great machine, great price, and a joy to use.

I have sewed for many years and have envied those with embroidery machines. I had always assumed a sewing machine was combined with the embroidery machine. I have three sewing machines, did not need another. A friend had a new embroidery machine...I was surprised to find it was not a combination machine. I began to research embroidery machines, checking websites, and visiting a sewing center in College Station. I found the Brother was top rated (see consumer reports) according to my findings but the cost was not excessive. The store did not have the machine I wanted in stock. I began checking websites; several sites did not have the PE-770 in stock. Sew Vac Direct did. I love the convience of the led display; the help button is fantastic; it gives a step-by-step process which increases the learning curve. The prompts prevents skipping steps and reduce errors. I have been using the machine for less than a week but am wowed by it.
