Why we like it

If you’re new to sewing, I recommend buying the Brother LX3817 17-Stitch Portable Full-Size Sewing Machine. I have this exact model, and it’s lasted me years with no issues. It’s easy to use, lightweight, and has a wide range of stitch options for a very reasonable price.

Best runner-up deal

$179.99 Save $34.16

Why we like it

The SINGER M3500 Lightweight and Portable Sewing Machine with Accessory Kit is another great option, especially if the Brother machine sells out. It’s on sale at Amazon for $145.83, which is a little pricier than the model above but still a solid deal for a machine that retails for $219.99 on the SINGER website.

This machine has 110 stitch applications and comes with everything you need to get started (except fabric, of course). You’ll get a full set of accessories like needles, thread, and a seam ripper. The one-step buttonhole feature is also super handy.
