About Us
Sewing Machine Tech (Máquina de Costura Tech) is a Brazilian publication created by Paulo Vasconcelos and dedicated to sewing machines, sergers, embroidery equipment, accessories, maintenance, and practical sewing technology.
Our goal is to make it easier to choose equipment by explaining the differences that matter in real projects: stitch options, speed, feed system, controls, included feet, free arm, buttonholes, needle threading, bobbin system, fabric compatibility, maintenance, and value.
Our Editorial Approach
Transparency: We distinguish official manufacturer specifications, editorial analysis, consumer feedback, and hands-on observations when equipment has actually been tested.
Accuracy: We prioritize manufacturer documentation and reliable technical information, especially for model-specific features and electrical requirements.
Practical value: We consider the needs of beginners, hobbyists, garment makers, quilters, and users working with different fabrics and project types.
Independence: Affiliate relationships do not determine our conclusions.
For U.S. Readers
The site is operated from Brazil. In English-language articles, we adapt model availability, voltage, measurements, pricing context, terminology, warranty/support references, and retailer information for the U.S. market whenever relevant. Sewing-machine variants can differ by country, so always verify the exact model and electrical specification before purchase.
Affiliate Disclosure
