Hi, I am new to the forum and am looking for some input on home versus semi-commercial machines. I'd prefer a multi-thread machine since the colours would be pretty consistent. Any recommendations? I think the Brother-PR600 series may be it but I'm interested in feedback on whether that's overkill for 100-200 units a year of different items (TShirts, Sweatshirts, Raincoats, Fleeces, maybe hats of a couple of types).
I am selling a PR600 II. It's a great 6 needle machine to get you started on what you're looking to do.
See posting: Brother PR-600II (Upgraded to 620)
Don't bother with the brother 6-needle machine. You will outgrow that right away. I would get the Happy Voyager. Faster, wider sewing area and 12-needles! Even if most of your designs don't require more than 6 colors, you still want to have the 12-needle to keep your most common threads on it. If you look around, you will see lots of brothers/babylocks 6-needle for sale and few Happy Voyagers. That's because they bought the Brothers and decided they needed a bigger machine. Happy voyager is also compact and portable and fits in the home nicely.
