The Brother PE800 is a big upgrade from the Brother PE770. I'm a beginner at embroidery, and after a lot of research on You Tube, blogs, and forums, I am a very happy owner of this Brother PE800. I have used the PE770, a very good machine, but very hard to see the images on the b&w screen. The color screen on the PE800 is very clear and easy to use, allowing you to actually see what you are embroidering. I have a lot more to learn about the machine, but will share some of the features I have found I love. The PE800 allows you to add and edit multiple designs and fonts on screen, place letters in an arc and on 2 lines, drag and drop embroidery patterns, and move and position your pattern with the touch of your finger. The PE800 has a built in color palette that allows you to change individual thread colors on screen. The workspace and around the needle is super illuminated with 2 bright LED lights.
The bobbin uses 90 weight bobbin thread; I ordered a big box of pre wound bobbins and much prefer to use them than winding my own. Use good quality upper thread, correct weight of bobbin thread, stabilize your material correctly, and you should have a really good time using this machine. Sit down with your manual and go through it step by step. It's fun and there are so many possibilities with the choices of patterns out there. The PE800 has the USB flash drive port, making it easy to put any purchased embroidery patterns on the machine to embroider.
The PE770 and PE800 both take the same hoops. Big plus for me because I had all the hoops for the PE770. - Starlett

I am new to embroidery and have found this machine very easy to use and SO much fun! I was intimidated at first. When it arrived, I let it sit in the box for a few days. Then recycling day arrived so I opened the box and set up the machine, which took five minutes. I stared at it a few more days and finally decided to bite the bullet and was joyously surprised at how very easy it is to use. Even a total novice like me could use it pretty much immediately. Now I'm excited about what is to come and learning more. I make memory bears for hospice families and it is so nice to be able to embroider the deceased person's name on the bear and add a symbol of something meaningful to them. So much more personal and so much fun. I wish I'd bought this sooner. -
