 2 members like this. Date: 12/27/12 0:09 AM Well, am *I* thankful today! I will have saved myself nearly $100! I had intended to buy the LB6800PRW dual sewing/ embroidery machine, when I took a closer look at the specs of the SE-400 and found that they were the exact same machine, save for the "Project Runway" logo! This has been confirmed to me by this blog post: http://www.brotherse400.com/brother-lb6800prw-brother-se400/
Lesson? Caveat emptor! :) |

Date: 12/29/12 7:32 PM Indeed! Or more money for thread.... It was just by happenstance that I clicked on the SE-400 model on the Brother website and realized that I was physically LOOKING at the same machine being sold as the LBR6800PRW! So, that prompted me for some more investigation. |

Date: 12/30/12 1:15 PM You can compare at Brother and then at the vendor of choice. I have read that sometimes there can be a difference in the packaging.
Access the Brother site, then select Specifications and scroll down to Carton Contents:
SE 400
LB 6800 PRW |
