This tool allows you to easily work on small areas and is especially helpful for those who deal with children’s clothing. One of the main positives of the 4234D is its ability to work on pretty much any fabric weight/type and deliver perfectly hemmed seams or decorative effects every time. Although this is a good introductory model there is the possibility to get more for your money with the Brother M343D. However, if that’s not an issue, don’t let that one problem put you off investing in this otherwise great machine. You can easily adjust the length and width of each stitch you create by simply turning the dial to the size you want and as well as standard stitches you can also use it to create more decorative stitches and finishes. Chain-off stitches for instance.

My 3 Best Buys all came with more accessories. Other positives include a 4mm stitch length the rolled hem conversion and the differential feed. The differential feed on this model is ideal for more demanding fabric and has other applications such as for gathering.

If you choose a model with snap-on presser feet you will thank yourself for it. When it comes to threading or rethreading snap-on presser feet are a desirable feature to have. Free Arm/Flat Bed update: I don’t think the M343D is an old model anymore. I came across a Brother social media post in 2020 (that I can’t seem to refind) that said it was new? I’ll need to look into this more closely. The unit has a built-in rolled hem feature, an electronic foot control, and comes pre-threaded. The upper knife can be easily retracted for more creative projects.
