5.0 out of 5 starsAn awesome machine!
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2016
I was looking for a lightweight machine for taking to workshops when I saw this. I have quite a few machines already, some are high end and expensive, but much too heavy to carry to retreats and workshops. I've been sewing on this machine a few weeks now and love it! The EverSewn Sparrow 25 is exactly what I needed. The features compare nicely to what is on my high end machines. There is a wide range of utility, decorative, quilting stitches, and even an alphabet! The needle up/down feature is a big plus as is the automatic needle threader. This machine sews beautifully. The stitches are perfect. Being a quilter, I love that it has a drop feed for free motion embroidery and quilting. The only thing this machine lacks is an automatic thread cutter, but the side cutter works well and I certainly won't complain that it doesn't have every feature that I would like to have. If you are a quilter, be aware that you will need to purchase other accessory feet that do not come with the machine. The machine comes with assorted feet, but not those needed for quilting. The many low shank feet and snap on feet that I already have work perfectly on this machine. I am totally pleased with my purchase and have recommended it to friends. This little 13 pound Sparrow is well built, sturdy, and a great value for the price.

Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2024
A piece is broken inside the machine, and the box damage proves that this machine certainly wasn’t new. I’ve stabilized it for the future buyer, but I would prefer to get this machine new for the price I paid.

5.0 out of 5 stars 50+ years of sewing experiece and a rate this machine as Top Notch! 10 STARS!!
Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2017
Style: Sparrow 30Verified Purchase
I had to wait 2.5 months for the delivery of my machine. I was a nervous wreck! I've been a sewing addict for over 50 yrs. My front room in my apt doesn't have sofas, TV etc, it's my sewing room! Well, I wore out my beloved machine and was left with my mom's Featherweight and a 3 spool sergerADD TO LIST. I looked at an attachment to make button holes with the FW
and for the cost it had me looking at the Singer heavy wt machine. I do tax the motor on the FW. That started the journey to the Sparrow 30.
First day, I hated it. It's my 1st computerized machine and that took a bit to get used to. I decided to keep the macine and at least give it a couple days after waiting so long for it to arrive. By the 2nd day I was starting to like it and by the 3rd day I was starting to fall in love with it.
First off, I was worried about a 'pink' machine in my front room. But-I like it. I think of it as a 'blush' rather than pink. To me it's a soft,soothing color. It's easy and quick to thread, easy to wind the bobbin and easy to load the bobbin. I like the blade that you can use to trim the bobbin thread. It took me a bit to use the needle threader. Follow the manual EXACTLY. I love it now and Ilove the thread the button that cuts the thread when you are done sewing.
Fundamental to everything about the machine is the fact that the machine produces a nice looking stitch! From the basic stitch to all the stitches- they are very nice stitches. The motor seems strong enough so far its stronger than the FW. Truthfully, the only objection I have may be an issue due to it being computerized. I am used to controlling the speed of the stitch by pressing down on the petal and backing off and grabbing the wheel to get it to stop exactly where I want it to stop. I'm having to get used to adjusting the petal speed with the slide conveniently located on the front of the machine. The petal does allow some control but if you back off past a certain point the machine completely stops and you have to completely back your foot off and start again to get it to go. Also the when you press the stitch cutter it wants to take a stitch abd then cut but I'm done-I don't want it to take a stitch! So I'm trying to get used to stopping a stitch short and then press the cutter. All in all I think this is a very lovely machine and definately a super buy for the price. I had a top of the line machine that I sewed on daily for 30 years! I think the little adjusting I'm having to do is really quite minute and to be expected! I very confidently give this macine a top rating!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great lightweight machine for the price
Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2022
Style: Sparrow 30Verified Purchase
I've had this little machine since September 2018 and I just love her. For the price you will not find another machine with these features: plethora of decorative stitches, needle up/down, start/stop button sewing, extension table, feed dog up/down, automatic needle threader etc etc. I did have a bit of trouble with the bobbin housing coming loose within the first month but this was no trouble to open up the needle plate, reseat the bobbin and then tighten the screw. I've made countless quilts (including free motion), garments, and other projects on this machine. Beautiful stitches and easy to read manual. I am knocking off a star because in over 3 years I've never managed to get the automatic cutter to work properly. It always cuts the threads too short which necessitates rethreading the machine and usually pulling the bobbin thread through again. No matter, this is not a feature I cared much about anyway.

I would highly recommend this machine for a beginner who wants to try some more advanced features like needle up/down without the advanced price tag or for a travel/retreat machine.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Love This Machine!
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2017
Style: Sparrow 30Verified Purchase
Purchased for a light weight machine that can travel to class. I am fussy, even about a classroom machine. Must have needle up/down, scissor thread cut function, speed control, and an extension table. To get these features one must always buy up (sort of like having to buy up in a car model to get the features wanted), and the price goes up, along with lots of stitch features not wanted. This is an upscale model for a downscale price. It has the features I require. It sews beautifully, even for a light weight machine, and sounds like a much more expensive machine. True, it has many stitches that I will never use, but that is OK. It was fun to unpack the machine when the box arrived -- that cute pink machine came to light and looked so friendly -- no intimidation here! The manual for the machine is the best written sewing machine manual I've ever used (and I've been through a number of machines), written in plain, concise English and easy to follow along. Take your time reading the manual while sitting in front of the machine and memorize the basic functions. You'll make friends with the machine very quickly. The Brewer Company that sells this machine is owned by Bernina. There is a 1 year warranty on electrical, and 10 year warranty on parts. They say normal cleaning, etc. can be done at any service center, but major repairs will probably have to be done by Brewer. All of the lubrication areas are sealed, so you don't have to fuss with oil -- yea!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this machine
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2017
Style: Sparrow 25Verified Purchase
I have had this machine for about three months now and have sewn many projects. I like to quilt, make tote bags, rope bowls, etc. I have put this machine through it’s paces and am in love with it. I ordered the SewSteady extension table also in size 11.5x18” and it is perfect for what items I make. The first thing that impressed me was how quiet this machine is when you turn it on and when sewing with it. It a solid attractive machine with good weight to it. I chose this model as it had what I needed and I preferred the appearance of it over the next model up which is pink. Just preferred of this model over that and didn’t need the added decorative stitches or thread cutter.

I will say I ordered some of the Eversewn accessory pack accessories but returned some of them when I realized how overpriced they were as you I can use the same accessories that most Brother machines use. I have two Brother machines and the Eversewn takes everything the same and I like that all my machines accessories are compatible. So don’t waste you money on the Eversewn add-ons.

I’ve had many sewing machines and will say that I am truly impressed with this Eversewn and think this company, associated with Bernina, is really on to something making this affordable line of quality machines. I definitely recommend this machine.

2.0 out of 5 stars Sews Well; I'm a Little OCD About the Extension Table....
Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2023
Style: Sparrow 30Verified Purchase
Right out of the box it looks brand new, all pieces are accounted for, stitch sample looks good.... but the extension table is a completely different shade of pink! The machine itself is the palest blush and the table is bubblegum! It completely cheapens the overall look. This might end up in a sewing desk and the table won't be used anyway, and maybe I'm just fussy, but this bugs me. I'll sew with it tomorrow and review the actual machine later.
***UPDATED*** This machine sews well. You wouldn't know it was used. Came in the original box with all original accessories, cover, manual, etc... It doesn't seem refurbished at all. No scratches, etc. Has great features for an entry level machine. I'm a bit spoiled by my "cadillac" sewing machine but as a second machine, I'm glad I made the purchase.
UPDATE #2: First time I changed the bobbin, the bobbin case fell apart. I'm not playing mechanic or wasting money on repairs for a machine of this caliber. Luckily it's within the return window so it's going back. Looking online it seems these machines have bobbin case issues. I suppose I should have paid more attention to that when I read reviews.

I buy to much stuff to post my name
4.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy it.
Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2019
Style: Sparrow 30Verified Purchase
Update... I had multiple problems with this machine. After contacting the company yet again I was of offered an exchange. I took the exchange. I think the first machine was a lemon. New one was had no real issues as far as sewing so I'm adding more stars back.

But if I was going to recommend a machine this would not be the one. I like the color and it sews ok. But for the price I expect more. The newer sparrow 30 is also green and they have renamed this one and lowered the price. That makes me think it has had issues.

You can buy a much better machine for the price. I had issues right out of the box. Got a helpful reply and solved the tension issues. But they also stated it was a known problem. It worked great for a little while. But now the bobbin holder works it's way out of the machine. I wanted to love this machine because it's pink. But I'm still mad I paid the price for such a bad machine. I've had many machines over the years and this ranks the lowest. My $75 backup machine can out sew this one. Disappointed.
