I gave this product a low rating more for its value than its performance.
The product does what it is supposed to do, it allows you to transfer designs to your machine and in that respect you just can't do without it (Brother got you by you know what...).
The software that comes with it is at best 'primitive' and offers no editing capabilities what so ever. The user interface would be considered state of the art around 1990!
It only organizes your designs, and then very poorly.
Transferring designs to the card is also primitive. You can not add designs to the card cumulatively for it erases the card every time prior to writing to it!
Al in all, at its current price, a serious ripoff. Unfortunately it is all you got if you want to load new designs into your machine.
I feel that at $100++ it is way overpriced, the package's true value should be somewhere between $25 and $50.

I was told when I bought my Brothers Embroidery Machine that I would need a magic box which runs about $250. I looked on Amazon and found the ped basic and decided to try it. It has worked worked great and is less than half the price. Amazon was quick in their shipping also. I highly recommend it.

Got the machine a couple of years ago. Just picked up the PED. Works fabulously. There are quite a few on line sites with free embroidery designs. If you're purchasing designs just make sure they are in PES form and/or on a card.

The PED Basic seemed like an easy fix for downloading embroidery patterns. Unfortunately it took an IT specialist an hour to get the product installed on my computer. After two hours of trying, failing and stress, I learned how to download designs. I like the product now that the process is over.

IS this a problem with software or microsoft? I don't know, but wish the amazon advert was clearer.... I now have sheets I can't embroider for christmas, a $120 piece of software that's not working....and a headache...off to the brother site to see if there is an updated driver....if not I'll be REALLY upset! IF you have VISTA or Windows 7 be sure to do your research before buying and make sure you can find a driver!!!!!
Ok, i upped this a star, there is a driver on the brother website, so DONT use the disk, but go get one offline to use. IF you accidently do download the disk first, uninstall it, then reinstall from online. A bit of a pain, but otherwise, the software seems to work ok...
