Users searching online for this machine will likely find mention of other Project Runway sewing machines by Brother.
This Brother computerized sewing machine has a "big Brother" in the Brother 420, a more advanced model, and "cousins" in the Innov-is line of Brother sewing machines, that are only sold by retail dealers.
Like its heavy-hitter cousins, the Brother sewing machine 210 offers a combination of user-friendly abilities and solid construction.
50 different computerized stitches give you the choice of 16 utility stitches including stretch stitches, and 34 decorative stitches.
And the Project Runway sewing machine has five different buttonhole styles--all created with the one-step automatic buttonholer.
Most Brother sewing machines are equipped with Brother's Quick-Set ™ bobbin loading system. The drop-in bobbin loading makes machine set-up a snap.
Speaking of snaps--the stunning array of specialized presser feet change out with a snap, and when you're done using the buttonhole foot (or the zipper foot, or the blind stitch foot, or any one of the seven included presser feet), they store directly in the arm of the machine, in specialized slots, always ready at hand.
This Brother sewing machine is as solid as its fellows. Weighing in at 17 lbs, the Brother sewing machine 210 is solid enough to handle heavier sewing, but portable in its style.
Reviewers say that the combination of easy machine set-up and compact body make it a great choice for taking to sewing classes or quilting parties.
Family Feud The Downside of the PC-210
Advanced stitchers might find this machine to be a little light on the extended features so useful to a professional or semi-pro sewer.
And the lack of a monogramming font makes it difficult to use this Brother computerized sewing machine to personalize your garment or craft creations.
You might expect a Project Runway sewing machine to have a work light worthy of the spotlight, but reviewers report that the work light on the PC-210 is less bright than older Brother sewing machines.
Family Style
The Brother sewing machine 210 has the important features common to its larger and more extensive cousins bearing the Project Runway name, but at a more budget-conscious price, and with more of a focus on those just beginning to sew.
The PC-210 has the same quality features as its more powerful brethren, but focuses on making sewing less complicated and more fun.
If you are ready to move into more intermediate sewing, but you're still confused by hundreds of stitch choices, this Brother computerized sewing machine is a friendly next step.
