There are two types of embroidery machines: professional and household. The difference between the latter is that they are intended for home use, and, accordingly, have low productivity, the ability to work with only one hoop, and the constant presence of an employee is mandatory. Despite the established framework, the range of household embroidery machines is huge: from monogram models to sewing and embroidery complexes.

Instructions
Step 1
First, determine for what purpose you plan to buy an embroidery machine. Modern models can not only work in traditional techniques (cross-stitch, satin stitch), but also embroider with ribbons, yarn, photostitch technique, as well as create cutwork lace, quilting products and appliqués.
Step 2
Select a hoop size. Depending on the scale of the work, the embroidery parameters can vary: from a plot of 100x100 mm to 350x200 mm. If you need to embroider large-sized paintings, then you should pay attention to models with adjustable hoops. In this case, the maximum field for embroidery can be 360x350 mm.
Step 3
See the method for attaching the hoop. It can be single-sided or double-sided. In the first case, the embroidery process is greatly simplified, but the risk of distortion of the final pattern increases. With double-sided fastening, the likelihood of changing the integrity of the pattern and the occurrence of backlash in work is minimal.
Step 4
Prefer hoops with rounded corners. This method of fastening the material allows it to be optimally fixed both along the perimeter and in the center.
Step 5
Look at the patterns embroidered on a specific model. The quality of the work is the main characteristic of the machine, and therefore make sure that the lines and stitches fit tightly to each other, and there are no loops or knots on the wrong side of the work.
Step 6
Check out the characteristics of a laptop, because it is he who is the main link in the embroidery process. Ideally, in addition to a monitor (no matter color or black and white), it will have the functions of service tips and design editing.
