This machine is amazing and the trainers that helped set it up are Amazing and provided great help. It also came with great instructions and videos to set it up. The packaging was great and nothing was damaged. Highly recommend SmartStitch!

So far, so good. I’ve only had the machine for about a month, but I’ve been able to make really cool items with a variety of techniques from appliqué on kitchen towels to lettering on sweatshirts. Love the larger embroidery field, though I haven’t maxed it out yet. It has its quirks that I’ve had to adjust to but the Smartstitch team is open to feedback and provides helpful support, training and onboarding. Great value for the price. Hope to keep making beautiful designs on this machine for a long time.

I’m completely new to machine embroidery, and the SmartStitch S-1501 Ultra has honestly exceeded every expectation. I was nervous about jumping into something so advanced, but SmartStitch made the process so approachable. The setup was straightforward, and their support team and training videos made it much easier to understand than I expected. Even as a beginner, I was able to start stitching beautiful, professional-quality designs right away. The stitch quality is crisp and consistent, and it runs incredibly smooth. The automatic thread trimming and color-changing features save so much time. I’ve already embroidered shirts, towels, and applique pieces, and everything has turned out amazing. The machine feels solid and reliable - truly built for both beginners and those planning to grow their business. If you’re new to machine embroidery but ready to invest in something that will grow with you, the SmartStitch S-1501 Ultra is absolutely worth it. Also, their customer service is amazing!!

I love my 1501 so much, I got the new Beast 1501 Plus! This thing is QUIET! Much quieter than my 1501 and definitely much quieter than my loud mouth Babylock array lol!! The stitch quality is so good! I did have an issue with my frame parameters and oil leaking, but my customer service group took care of it right away like always!

I recently upgraded from the Brother SE2000 to the Smartstitch 1501 Plus, and it’s been a total game changer! This is my first multi-needle machine, and the difference in speed, color efficiency, and stitch quality is night and day. The machine arrived extremely well-packaged in a heavy-duty crate (see photos) and felt very secure during transit. Setup does take some space and muscle, but everything was in perfect condition. The build is solid, and the touchscreen interface is intuitive once you get used to it. I completed the official training last night, and I was really impressed. The trainer was knowledgeable and super responsive. When we hit an unexpected issue, she walked over to an engineer and got the answer right away — that kind of real-time support gave me a lot of confidence. I’ve already done some test stitching and a full-color project (photos included), and I’m thrilled with the results. Crisp lines, smooth color transitions, and minimal thread breaks. If you're thinking about stepping up to a commercial machine, I highly recommend this one. The machine is powerful, the training is thorough, and the support team is clearly invested in helping users succeed.

I am new to embroidery and decided to go with the Smartstich S1501 plus. I am so glad that I did. The personal training and support is OUTSTANDING! Having absolutely no experience in embroidery and digitizing, with the suggestions, training and support, I have gotten off to great start. ( in my opinion). One of the best purchasing experience I have had. Thank you again Smartstich, for everything.

Just received my machine!! Quick delivery and packaged well. I did a lot of research and was impressed by all the good reviews. Waited for the new updated machine and I can tell you the large sewing field is huge. Was able to set everything up by following the videos. Very sturdy machine with a heavy duty stand and storage space. Thrilled that I have a training and support group personalized for me and I can get help any time. Training starts tomorrow, really excited!!
