Anyone who has an embroidery machine is probably aware of the new hoop on the market. The Snap Hoop is fantastic there is no pain involved in hooping your items for embroidery, no hoop burn, no fighting to get the items hooped straight, and rehooping is a breeze. Now for the bad news. The hoop does not fit all machines. Naturally the manufacturer made hoops for the expensive machines, not for the "low end" machines. If you call them and express an interest in hoope for the other machines, they will consider making one.

Please call the manufacturer and request that they make hoops for the smaller machines. Of course it would be great if you mentioned by machine which happens to be a Brother 750D - but call them anyway. Here's the number 1-888-739-0555.

Thanks! Happy Sewing.

This sounds just like the Magna Hoop which is less expensive and they have one for the Brother 750D. And, no, that's not my ebay listing, but I am thinking about getting one.

Just thought I'd post an update in case anyone was interested. ;0)
The Magna Hoop's reviews are not as good as the Snap Hoop - most of the complaints are that the magnets are not strong enough and the item puckers.

I think the Snap Hoop is supposed to be the improvement over the Magna Hoop.
