Why upgrade?
I've had my machine about a week and love it! Easy to set up read the enclosed manual , easy to operate. I had a basic brother machine before and comparing the two this machine is SO much more then I hoped for. I haven't had the chance to use the embroidery feature but I've sewn a pair of curtains, a bag and working on a sewing machine organizer. This machine comes with so many extras ! I broke 3 needles my first day and thought I broke the machine , I called Brother and received assistance.

Very Easy to use I just started sewing for about 4 months now and I must say I was very impress on how fast I learned this machine I want to own them all if you are looking for a stress free machine then the Brother HE 240 is the machine you are looking for. HSN was very helpful and very professional thanks HSN -
I have this machine and it is a wonderful little machine. I mainly use it for sewing but I have used it for embroidering as well. I bought this machine almost 3 years ago and only had one issue with it. I wasn't happy with Brother's warrenty. They did not cover a thing. But because I love the machine, I paid for the repairs myself. i just purchased the curvie and hope it is as nice if not nicer then HE 240. I do a lot of quilting which is why I decided to buy another machine.
