Can you use any of the accessories from the PRS100. I want this machine but don't want to have to buy everything all over again, especially since I do this as a hobby.
Is the Entrepreneur One PR1X wireless? I did a live chat with Brother today and the representative had NO information on the new machines. How disappointing.
you act as if you can't use usb, LOL. wireless for what? you can't search the web or listen to music on it. these people add wireless to these machines for less than 10 bucks and then people will pay a grand more for it.
it has a larger hoop and the software is slightly different. Like going from Windows 10 to Windows 11. They both do the same things at the same speed basically. this machine is overpriced and so is the cap driver. it is a nice and easy-to-use machine but there is no need to buy it over the PRS100.@@lindalee945
The size doesn’t matter cause it’s easy to print one side, then print additional parts. Price comparison? Persona is $3999 and the PR1X is ? A LOT MORE, knowing Brother. And so, they added in a few extra designs and fonts, whatever. I never buy a machine based on that because I, like most users, don’t use most of the ones they give you. Since I can get what I want online, who cares what’s on the machine? It just wastes space. Are these the only big differences? Just shows how Brother saw how popular the Persona is and said, we need to up our profit margin so the best way is to put out a “new” machine. They couldn’t rely on planned obsolescence (which is the central way they increase profits) so the next method is the “new” machine. Based on this description, there’s no additional feature that makes this worth the money. Did you leave something out or is that all there is?
Sorry but you are wrong. Some of us only have the PR machines because we wanted the things the multi needle machines give us. WE ARE NOT A BUSINESS!!! I feel that Brother shouldn’t limit us who are not a business.
John, you may be comparing our brand new Brother PR1X single needle at $7000 to a used 6 needle PR without any parts and labor warranty for 2 years, or without electronic parts warranty for 6 years. A brand new updated PR680W by comparison would cost $11,000 online or in stores. John Douthat, owner tech
Was so much fun learning and using this machine at the Lonestar University in San Antonio TX.
I have been waiting for this level of a machine!
I can’t wait to see this machine at my dealer!
Love your plan to do a comparison ladies❤ Very informative!

Should have offered a upgrade for the PRS 100 not going to buy a new one for so few new options.
and twice the price. the prs 100 is under 4k on Amazon.
@JohnEastmanExAttyAtLaw since you seem to be knowledgeable about this... can you tell me what's the big benefit of the new machine? Besides price.

can you show show to install the hoop frame and hoop.
Can it still do quilting? Are the the accessories interchangeable?
Can you use the persona hoops on the pr1x?
You can use the 8x8 and the 4x4.
The compact frames do not fit well.
They are skewed. For the compact
frames they should pick up the
monogram kit
Is this machine wireless
Hi, Is the PR1X wireless?
It is not wireless, the 6 needle and 10 needle are.
The size doesn’t matter cause it’s easy to print one side, then print additional parts. Price comparison? Persona is $3999 and the PR1X is ? A LOT MORE, knowing Brother.

Do you know how much the new machine is?
About 5 thousand euros here in Italy

For this money you can buy a very nice multi-needle machine. Anyone that buys this is not very intelligent.
