Review: Great Quality Sewing Machine-Good Value - Great little sewing machine. Works perfect and very easy to thread. Really like the drop-in bobbin feature. Love the size and portability of it too. Quiet operation and very smooth. Great value for the money. Had a previous "Brother" sewing machine and it lasted over 30 years. Hope this one does the same. And this machine is so pretty! :) Very happy with this purchase. Review: 🌟🌟🌟🌟⭐ Great for Beginners and Light Projects! - I bought this machine as a beginner, mainly to do light sewing tasks like bag linings and minor alterations — and it’s been perfect so far! It’s simple to use, easy to thread, and not intimidating at all. The stitch options are just enough without being overwhelming, and it runs quietly, which I really appreciate when working late. It’s definitely not meant for thick fabrics or heavy-duty sewing, but for everyday projects and learning the basics, it gets the job done beautifully. I love how lightweight it is too — easy to store and move around. If you’re new to sewing or just want something reliable for simple tasks, this is a solid pick! ## Features - This reliable user-friendly Brother sewing machine is ideal for everyday sewing and mending - The SM1704 offers the features of a full-size sewing machine yet is lightweight and portable - Included are 17 unique stitches for blind, stretch, buttonholes and zipper insertion - 4 sewing feet: zigzag foot, zipper foot, buttonhole foot, button sewing foot - Brightly lit LED work area ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01K4223OE | | Best Sellers Rank | #55,202 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #156 in Sewing Machines | | Brand | Brother | | Brand Name | Brother | | Color | White | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 762 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00012502644279 | | Included Components | Darning plate, 3-piece needle set, twin needle, extra spool pin, bobbins (4), foot contoller, power cord, operation manual and instructional DVD | | Is Electric | Yes | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 14"D x 17.3"W x 7.5"H | | Item Type Name | Sewing Machine | | Item Weight | 10.6 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Brother Mobile Solutions | | Material | Metal, Plastic | | Model Number | SM1704 | | Part Number | SM1704 | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 14"D x 17.3"W x 7.5"H | | UPC | 012502644279 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 25 year limited manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Brother - **Color:** White - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00012502644279 - **Is Electric:** Yes - **Item Weight:** 10.6 Pounds - **Material:** Metal, Plastic - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Product Dimensions:** 14"D x 17.3"W x 7.5"H - **UPC:** 012502644279 ## Images ![SM1704 17-Stitch Free Arm Sewing Machine - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Rztnwe7GL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Set** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What country is this made i?n** A: Vietnam **Q: Can this machine gather fabric?** A: Yes.
