With modern cosmetics, heavy-duty construction for sewing and quilting for increased stability at high speeds, a reinforced handle with a sturdy yet comfortable metal plate, and advanced features such as a push-button thread cutter that allows you to save time without compromising the quality of your sewing projects, the Brother PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine is ready to take on any project. With lightning-fast sewing of up to 1,500 stitches per minute, the PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine is ideal for a hobby consumer who quilts and sews and wants a workhorse machine. In addition, the needle position on this sewing and quilting machine can be pre-programmed to be up or down when the machine stops with the Customize Needle Stop Position feature. The PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine also features an adjustable pin feed mechanism that simultaneously moves several layers of fabrics for sewing accuracy. For example, this moves all layers of your quilt together or moves a delicate velvet without leaving feed dog marks in the nap. The PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine also has a convenient Thread Tension Adjustment Dial so you can achieve accurate tension control for even more precision. Even heavy weight fabric can be sewn without significant adjustment of thread tension dial. The four color-coded feed dogs have height settings for additional maximum fabric control. The PQ1600S Sewing and Quilting Machine has a push-button thread cutter and easy needle threader, a time-saving convenience. The Onboard Fabric Separator tool easily sews seams in contrasting fabrics without puckering. The built-in Knee Lifter for quilting allows you to raise and lower the presser foot so your hands can re-position or remove your material. With a large 5.7" x 8.7” needle-to-arm space, the PQ1600S makes free motion quilting easy, and the extra-large extension table (11.1" x 23.3") with bobbin case opening helps you manage those large projects. The extension table has easy access points that eliminate the need to remove the table to replace the oversized metal bobbin. The built-in telescopic Dual Cone Thread stand keeps two thread spools ready for smooth and easy feeding.

Review: No regrets! - I have been using this for a year, so it is time to write a review. Like many other reviewers, I needed to upgrade my equipment for quilting after spending many years using a cheap Brother, which still runs great and which I still love. I got this one because of the brand, the good price, the large work space, and importantly, the lack of computers. As others have pointed out, it is very heavy and it does only one thing, which is to sew a straight line, but it does that one thing flawlessly. I have not had many of the problems others have mentioned. Yes the bobbin and threading mechanisms are fiddly, but you get used to it. The automatic thread cutter is amazing! The only problems I have ever had with stitching have been due to user error during the learning process, and I find it easy to control the speed with the foot pedal. For perfect stitching on a solid machine, especially on large projects, this model can't be beat. While I have another machine that does fancy stitches, I did not realize how much I would miss a zigzag. I sew a lot of linen, which unravels very easily, and it would be nice to be able to do some stabilizing zigzags with this machine rather than set up the other one. The 1600s does not come with a walking foot, which is a bit unfair, since most people buy this for quilting. It took me quite a while to find the correct one - the Brother website is no help. Eventually I got one at Sewing Parts Online (Walking Foot, High Shank #XA7253001). It cost $70 and comes in an unmarked plastic bag so it does not seem to be an official Brother part, but it works. I have not tried free motion quilting yet, but it comes with a free motion foot, and the big workspace and detachable table give you lots of room for that. No regrets! Review: Reliable Workhorse Machine. - I previously owned the predecessor to this machine, and sadly during a studio remodel it got dropped and the drop destroyed the machine. So, I opted to get this newer version and I could not be happier. I have been a professional seamstress and quilter for over 50 years. A good high speed straight stitch machine is an absolute necessity in my studio. I am very pleased with my PQ1600S. The stitch quality is perfect and the machine is a solid work horse. I can put this machine through hours and hours of constant use and it never hiccups, it never skips a stitch, it's not as loud as my old brother high speed, it fills a perfectly balanced bobbin, it flies through even the thickest quilts and heavy home dec fabrics with ease. I have had several Brother machines over my sewing decades and to be honest, I have never had a bad brother machine. Every one has been a reliable workhorse with no drama. ## Features - Feed Dog Adjustments: With visible 4 color-coded levels of feed dog adjustment and presser foot pressure, the PQ1600S will give you maximum fabric control. - Lightning-Fast Sewing Speeds: The PQ1600S is a high-speed straight stitching machine, sewing up to 1,500 stitches per minute! - Push-button Thread Cutter: The PQ1600S has a push-button thread cutter that will cut the upper and lower thread. - Custom Needle Stop Position: The needle position on the PQ1600S can be preprogrammed to be in the up or down position when the machine stops. - Extra Large Workspace: The PQ1600S features an expanded 11.1" x 23.3" wide table and a large 5.7" x 8.7" needle-to-arm space. - This product is intended for sale only in the US at 120 volts, and any other use or sale may void the warranty. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CFYQZX5Q | | Best Sellers Rank | #108,202 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #260 in Sewing Machines | | Brand | Brother | | Brand Name | Brother | | Color | White | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 44 Reviews | | Included Components | sewing machine and accessories | | Input Voltage | 120 volts | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 25"D x 11.5"W x 15"H | | Item Type Name | PQ1600S High-Speed Straight Stitch Sewing & Quilting Machine | | Item Weight | 24 pounds | | Manufacturer | Brother International Corp | | Material | plastic outer/metal frame | | Model Number | PQ1600S | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | PQ1600S | | Power Source | ac | | Product Dimensions | 25"D x 11.5"W x 15"H | | UPC | 012502673866 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Brother - **Color:** White - **Input Voltage:** 120 volts - **Item Weight:** 24 pounds - **Material:** plastic outer/metal frame - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Power Source:** ac - **Product Dimensions:** 25"D x 11.5"W x 15"H - **UPC:** 012502673866 - **Unit Count:** 1 Count ## Images ![Brother PQ1600S High-Speed Straight Stitch Sewing Machine - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61S2VXkLb4L.jpg) ![Brother PQ1600S High-Speed Straight Stitch Sewing Machine - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Z3VRk31bL.jpg) ![Brother PQ1600S High-Speed Straight Stitch Sewing Machine - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81uCRQOpF2L.jpg) ![Brother PQ1600S High-Speed Straight Stitch Sewing Machine - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51rDaQz9mLL.jpg) ![Brother PQ1600S High-Speed Straight Stitch Sewing Machine - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91FklSoIG9L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No regrets! *by J***C on May 19, 2026* I have been using this for a year, so it is time to write a review.

It’s easy to to get up to speed with, threading is pretty easy, is quiet, sturdy, stitches nicely… The only negative for me would be that the location of the bobbin is a little awkward.. a very nice utility and quilting machine!
