100€ vs 1000€ Sewing Machine: Which Sew Jeans Better? (Brother PQ1600s vs Brother CS10S)

Does a 1000 euro machine really sews better than a 100eur machine? Let's find out with a ultimate test: sewing jeans! The machines I used in this test are: beginner friendly machine Brother CS10s which retails below 200eur, and straight-stitch advanced sewing machine Brother PQ1600S, which costs a bit over 1000eur. I tested these machines by making a pair of jeans: one half is made using one machine and second half other machine, to see how both machines will perform in same conditions: same thick fabric, same thick thread, same jeans needle size 100 and of course same seams. I’ll review the test results in 5 points: stitch quality, ease of use and adjustability, versatility and specialized features, durability and reliability and value for money. Let's see which one of these machine will handle jeans better!

Thanks for Brother for partnering on this video and proving machines for the review.
