My last sewing machine was a Brother brand. It worked for me five years with 40 quilts so I was ready for another Brother model . I like this one ,too. Brother cs6000i is same as my old one that threading were easy to figure out. However. I am not crazy about the LED display and stitch selection feature. Sometimes,I have already broken one needle after I set the needle position to fit the presser foot I wanted to use but the needle broke on the presser plate below. The motor of brother cs6000i is quieter than my old sewing machine but there is a click with every stitch.
I love the light weight sewing machine ! After I buy brother cs6000i , I have no problem about this machine . It is high quality.
