Love this machine. Has lots of features but love the cut off thread when finished sewing and the extension table is so useful. Looking forward to trying out all the different stitches on the computerised list.

The machine is great, I had a basic brother prior that I’ve outgrown, I wish I had bought this machine sooner and not wasted money on the first machine, it has all the features needed to carry out my numerous projects. I love the speed control, especially useful for trickier areas where precision foot control may be lacking. Comes with very easy to read instructions and lots of additional feet, the price was also the best online. Delivery was outstanding, ordered at midday on Saturday, arrived 10am Sunday. If you are thinking about buying this machine, stop thinking and just go for it.

I'm not a frequent sewer but this machine is so easy ... I thought my mother's old Toyota had put me off sewing machines for life, and now here I am trying to invent new projects, because using was such a dream. Buying though Sewing machine sales was brilliant. I'd no sooner thought "maybe I should get a sewing machine" and a man was on the door step with it. Amazing service.

Amazing machine. What a revelation, it is so easy to use. I can’t believe how much better it is to my usual basic standard machine. Worth every penny.

Review by Elaine P
I've had my machine for 10 years now - it's finally developed a problem with timing (I think) it's stitching loops underneath and nothing I can do will solve the problem. As it will probably be too costly to have this fixed, and bearing in mind the use I've already had, I'm looking to replace this - with another 9960 (or possibly a 9985 which is basically identical motor etc but with a bigger repertoire of stitches). My 9960 has been excellent - I've discovered it sometimes cuts thread too close to the needle when spools are cross wound and the thread springs out of the needle. It also isn't keen on different weights of thread in bobbin and spool when doing fancy stitching. I've used this machine for dressmaking, furnishings, and several large patchwork bed quilts, using a walking foot and sewing slowly enough not to strain the motor, after all, this is not an industrial machine, and heavy fabrics can be a challenge to handle. This is an excellent machine for sewing craft items - I make lovely padded zip bags,it's great for clothes with perfect buttonholes - and you can be really lazy and use the machine to attach your buttons also, it's happy sewing zillions of bits of fabric into pathwork quilts and then quilting them for you. Really ideal machine. For me it would be absolute perfection if the bed were wider, but as I can't afford everything - this will do fine.

Amazingly fast delivery in less than 24 hrs! I have just tried out this machine through several different stitches and it is so easy to operate and control. I am absolutely delighted with the quality and the operation of this machine. Should have bought it ages ago. Thank you very much for your excellent service. I am well pleased.

Review by Weg
I was looking for a light weight machine to replace my Mother in Law's old Singer Hand Sewing Machine and feel I have definitely made the right choice. Couldn't be more pleased - so easy to use - good instruction manual - compact yet sturdy and very light to move around. First Class Machine and First Class Service
