Our pick

Baby Lock Reflection

The Reflection is the pick for large designs and a large editing screen; match the design to its 9.5 by 14 inch field before buying.1

Why this one

  • Choose the Baby Lock Reflection for large embroidery designs: its 9.5 by 14 inch field gives you room to stitch a design that fits without splitting it between hoopings.1
  • The 10.1 inch touchscreen supports on-screen editing and lets you check the design before stitching.1

Other contenders

  • Brother PE900

    Choose the Brother PE900 for wireless design transfer when your designs fit its 5 by 7 inch field.56

  • Brother PRS100

    Choose the Brother PRS100 when its 8 by 8 inch field fits your work and you want a library of 445 built-in designs.7

Buying advice

  • Check both dimensions of your design against the embroidery field; a longer field does not necessarily fit a wider design.157
