Brother Innov-is NV1800Q Sewing Machine Review
A great sewing machine for intermediate or advanced sewers is the Brother Innov-is NV1800Q Sewing Machine.
This machine is loaded with great features that are great for quilters, dressmakers, and home décor makers alike.
This sewing machine is designed with quilters in mind, specifically. With features and extra quilting-specific feet included with the machine, you’ll really enjoy quilting. It’s a great machine for free motion quilting with a quick conversion of dropping or lifting the feed dogs as needed.
One of the best features of this model in the Brother sewing machines range, is that it’s built with the ICAPS fabric sensor system included. With this system, it senses the type of fabric and adjusts the presser foot pressure accordingly. That way your presser foot and feed dogs are gripping the fabric as they feed them through perfectly no matter what you put to your needle. The advanced features of sewing machines like this, really take sewing to the next level.
Perhaps one of our favourite parts of this machine is the large LCD screen that gives you all of the information you need. This is the information on the stitch you’ve selected including which presser foot you should be using.
The Brother NV1800Q comes with 232 unique stitches built in. Youhave 10 automatic buttonholes as well as 5 different lettering styles to choose from. There are a plethora of utility stitches for garment sewing and quilting stitches. You’ll be able to customise all of your stitches by length and width, so that you’re getting the right stitch for your project every time.
Any advanced sewer will tell you that being able to sew with both hands on your project to guide or hold seams together knows the value of a knee lift. Knee lifts allow you to raise and lower your presser foot with just your knee. That means you won’t have to take your hands off of your work in case you need to pivot while sewing on applique or binding your quilt.
The NV1800Q has a top loading bobbin. Top loading bobbins are easier to thread, first and foremost. And it’s easier to clean out any lint that gathers in the area, which can cause jams. You should always dust out your bobbin area in between projects so that you keep your sewing machine in top condition!
You’ll love the amount of workspace the Innov-is NV1800Q has! You’ll first find that there are 8 inches of workspace to the right of the needle. You’ll be able to fit medium to large quilts through it! It also comes with a wide extension table included so that you have even more workspace to utilise.
