Brother AE1700 A-Grade

A-Grade Machines

A-Grade machines are those which have been returned as incorrectly ordered, not required or have failed in which case the failed part is replaced. Although they may have the odd blemish, A-Grade machines are generally in “as new” condition, have been checked and tested by qualified engineers before repacking and include a full guarantee covering labour, carriage and parts (exc. consumables).

The AE1700 is a traditional metal chassis sewing machine from Brother, perfect for basic dressmaking, repairs and alterations.

The lightweight but sturdy AE1700 has an easy to use single dial stitch selector with a choice of 8 true stitches for both utility and decorative sewing - straight, zig zag, blind hem, darning/mending, shell tuck, scallop, double action and bridging stitches. Plus an automatic 4-step buttonholer.

The AE1700 has the convenient top loading bobbin mechanism which not only takes the hassle out of bobbin changing, but is smooth and quiet (even at full speed) and is far more reliable when sewing heavy and more extreme fabrics compared to similarly priced front loading bobbin machines.

Of course, the AE1700 has a reverse function for securing the ends of your seams and an easy flat bed / free arm conversion for trouser hems and other difficult to reach areas.

With a traditional metal chassis, easy top loading bobbin and straight forward operation, you be assured that the AE1700 is designed and built around the values that you know and expect from a Brother sewing machine.
