About this machine

The Brother XM1010 is a compact mechanical domestic sewing machine with 10 built-in stitches, one four-step buttonhole, manual needle threading and four included feet. Brother documents a Quick-set drop-in top bobbin, free arm, LED work area and a maximum sewing speed of 750 stitches per minute.

XM1010 is a deliberately simple mechanical model

The exact Brother page gives the XM1010 only 10 built-in stitches and manual needle threading. That simplicity is part of its identity.

Original box contents are narrower than current compatibility

Brother lists four included feet for the XM1010: zigzag, zipper, buttonhole and button-sewing feet. The current SewFitGuide record also has exact compatibility for SA122 and SA125. Those are compatible accessories, not proof that they were included with the machine.

The current product page remains a strong reference

Unlike many discontinued models, Brother still exposes an exact XM1010 product page with dimensions, speed and feature fields.

What this machine is used for
