TESTED: Best Sewing Machines for Beginners
Quick summary of each machine and where to buy them: link.threadsmonthly.com/beginner-machine
I compared 56 beginner sewing machines and tested 7 of the best. My recommendations are the Brother innov-is A16 for hobby sewists, and the basic Brother Ls14s for people who only sew occasionally. Affiliate links below :) This video was not sponsored in any way, and I didn't receive any free gifts.
Top pick: Brother innov-is A16
- UK Amazon: amzn.to/3FIa6O7
Very similar:
- USA Sewing Machines Plus: shrsl.com/39n5c (almost identical, but it has 80 stitches)
- USA Amazon: amzn.to/3xhLVmL (more stitches and feet, but no 'lockstitch' ability and the needle threader's more fiddly)
- Canada Amazon: amzn.to/...

Gentili signori/e insomma, vorrei iniziare a cucire ma sono totalmente inesperto. Come prima macchina per principianti neofiti e imbranati come me, quale di queste meravigliose macchine mi consigliereste? Vi prego di aiutarmi perché non so proprio cosa comprare, e non vorrei commettere un errore di acquisto! Un piccolo Aiuto per favore grazie. Buon lavoro a tutti ❤👍
It's three years old video. Could you please let us know which is best model in Brothers now in 2025?
I was trying to find if there are any mechanical differences between the a16 and a150, but I was told there are non. Even by the brotherUK, now I am not sure how to interpret the bonus segment, any thoughts?
Hi, I was told by a sewing machine store at the time that, in general, the more expensive machines have more powerful motors. I don't have the knowledge to say more than that, though. Only a sewing machine mechanic/engineer would know the details. Sorry that I can't be of more use! The a16 and a150 are both excellent machines. If you want the extra stitches, you might find the a150 better.
Thank you. This video was so well made, the products were so thoroughly tested, and you were so clear with your presentation. Thanks!
I asked a question about the cost of repair for a computerised machine before watching to the end where you answered that. This is the best unbiased review I've seen, thank you
Thank you for your kind feedback! From Sara :)
Thank you! I went to an official Singer video first and they didn't bother to explain that the flat side of the needle faces the rear. I fumbled and fumbled and fumble around until I went back to RUclips and found your vid. Needle snapped right into place. The little things count! Thank you again. 🙏🙏🙏
Why did you make the best sewing machine video on RUclips and then stop making videos lol
Wow the best review on sewing Machine in YT. I need to watch this again before i decide to buy one. Thank you ❤
Thank yu - great video - I used it to buy my mrs christmas gift
hi, thank you so much for very informative video! btw i really need your advice and i'd appreciate if you could reply. have you tested brother gs3700? im really confused which one should i get between singer 3342 and brother gs3700
Noo why am I seeing this right after I bought and set- up by Singer 1306 :(
Don't worry, honestly. All sewing machines will get the job done. My first was worse than any machine in this video haha, but I still made lots of projects with it over the years.
Thank you - very thorough explanation.
Super helpful!
Do you think the brother a16 would be able to handle leather?
Thank you so much! This was very helpful for a beginner like me who loves fashion but doesn't know anything about sewing and wants to get into it :)
useful information in the video - Best sewing machine for 202*!!!? Which One Should You Buy? ruclips.net/video/xJCYsV3J_0g/видео.html
I bought a Bernette b42, after having a brother for 25 years no issues
Surprisingly easy! Thank you. I made 3 tonight for a small gift to a teenager for her birthday tomorrow.
Should I go for a brother a16 or a singer heavy duty 4432 if I could buy them for the same price?
It was a beautiful very useful video ❤ My question which would you believe would be the better option a16 of fs60X
Thank you! Very informative, especially since I have no sewing experience what-so-ever, but looking to start shorting some of my jeans
Really informative video, full of detail and so eloquently delivered. Hard to believe this is a sub 20 min video. Hopefully the attention this has earned will encourage you to keep the channel active and on going. Maybe threadsbianually can be a thing
Thank you for such a great video. So to-the-point and dry. Very much appreciated having such a comprehensive and palatable guide on entry level machines. Especially appreciated the bonus section. Helps with my fomo :)
thank you so much for the last bit as i'm thinking of buying A150 sewing machine as a beginner~
PERFECT. I've decided you should make all instructional videos on yt. usually i wna chuck my phone accross the room
Best ever review i have seen on RUclips.
Best sewing machine in the world 🌎 is the singer 6620c
Where do I get the template of the bow
Thank you so much for your in-depth review, am sure this was a lengthy process. I appreciate all your time, effort and attention to detail. I live in the US, purchased a Brother PS 500
Thank you for posting ! Helped me out 😊
Great tutorial! so far I've made 10 of these. I tried other methods but yours is the best and easiest.
The best sewing machine for beginners is not a throw away machine like the one shown, but a vintage machine. Only idiots cannot solve the problems with them. They last a life time, are extremely strong. The problem is, that they are so good, that they will last much longer than you live. And that is a problem. For the sellers of new machines. Who pay people to make videos like this. If you want far superior quality, simplicity, beautiful stitches, upper and bottom tension that can be reached, cleaned and really adjusted and don't cost you an arm and a leg (say 50 dollar), buy a vintage machine. Beginning of the sixties will do fine. Kenmore, Singer, Elna, Bernina, and many more: they are all perfect.
How to order
Very interesting ty
The first time I tried to watch this video, it went bonkers, taking me to other sites. The second time worked and I was happy to watch you making the scrunchie with bow. Thank you !
If I want to alter my clothes all the time which one
thank you! i have so many hair ties i wanted to turn into scrunchies 😊😊😊
I am so excited, in a few days my brother A 16 is arriving thanks to your video. I used to sew a bit when I was younger and while I wasn't sure what machine to get, you solved the issue. Thank you so much for such a thorough review and giving me the confidence to spend a bit more. Wish me luck!
This review was fantastic!!
why are there no more videos?
I love the method! This is a fun method also tuck some lace into the side seam. 😊 I also would recommend using sewing clips instead of pins to hold it around!
Wow, I wish all product reviews on RUclips were this clear and thorough! I've been wanting to break into the sewing world (nothing fancy, just think I'd enjoy knocking some clothes together out of old scrap material). However, every attempt I've made on my mother's older 30 y.o. machine has ended in frustration. I've decided I need to invest in something super duper basic (and hopefully idiot-proof). Thank you so much for the helpful video!
I appreciate how you communicate your research and for doing the research anyway. ❤❤
Wow! Those look so pretty! I definitely will try to make some. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us 😊
Lovely video great job!!!!!
do you have a recommend for slightly more expensive ones - would be a great video :)!
Thank you so much! Very helpful!
