Reliable 1500FR Fabric Cutting Machine
The Reliable 1500FR Fabric Cutting Machine is a lightweight electric fabric cutter designed for sample making, garment construction and other light-duty cutting applications. It can cut from a single layer of fabric up to stacked material measuring 1" / 2.5 cm high, making it a versatile cutting tool for sewing studios, fashion workrooms and garment-making environments.
The 1500FR features a 4" octagonal blade combined with a carbide-tipped, spring-loaded lower blade. This cutting system helps prevent fabric from jamming while providing smooth and precise cutting through fabric layers.
A powerful AC motor provides reliable cutting performance, while the integrated automatic sharpener helps maintain the blade's cutting edge during regular use.
The machine's extra-thin base plate is designed to slide smoothly underneath the fabric while supporting accurate cutting. Combined with the lightweight die-cast construction, the 1500FR is comfortable to manoeuvre around curves and pattern pieces.
For additional protection during operation, the machine is equipped with both a knife guard and side knife guard. Its combination of manageable size, cutting capacity and lightweight construction makes the 1500FR suitable for users ranging from beginners working with powered fabric cutters to experienced sewing and garment-making professionals.

Shipping Policy
We are committed to providing reliable nationwide delivery using trusted shipping partners.
Québec and Ontario
We’ve recently updated our shipping options to give you more flexibility and competitive rates. At checkout, you can now choose from multiple carriers — including Canada Post, ICS Courrier, Canpar, Purolator, FedEx, UPS, and more.
Shipping fees are automatically calculated based on the weight of your order, with several delivery options and prices available.
If a carrier does not service your address, we may need to use an alternative option, which could incur additional charges, particularly for P.O. box addresses.
For remote or rural areas where delivery costs are higher, additional fees may apply. In these cases, we will provide proof of the shipping costs to ensure transparency.
Other Provinces in Canada, USA, and International Shipping
For customers in other Canadian provinces, the USA, or internationally, we offer a range of shipping options through various carriers. The customer is responsible for selecting their preferred shipping method at checkout.
Please note that our system provides an estimated shipping cost at checkout, which may not always reflect the actual shipping charges.
In cases of oversized orders, shipments to rural or remote areas, or delivery to P.O. boxes, the final shipping cost may differ. If this occurs, we will contact you directly with the updated shipping cost, which will be the responsibility of the customer.
Import Duties & Customs Fees (USA & International Orders)
All orders shipped outside of Canada — including to the United States — may be subject to import duties, customs fees, taxes and other charges assessed by the destination country’s customs authorities. These charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost and are the sole responsibility of the customer.
Customers agree to pay any duties, taxes, fees, or charges required by the destination country in order for customs to release the package. Failure to pay such charges may result in your order being returned or abandoned by the carrier, and no refunds will be issued for duties or unused shipping fees.
We strive to provide clear communication and ensure your shipping experience is seamless. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out to us at: info@lestissees.com

DIGITAL PRODUCTS: NO RETURNS OR REFUNDS
All of our sewing patterns are sold as digital PDF files and are delivered instantly after purchase.

We strive for excellence in our products and customer service, but some imperfections may occur with fabric.
Please note that stains, holes, or blemishes within 3 inches (10 cm) of the edge are considered acceptable. Missing or pulled knit stitches on the wrong side of the fabric that do not distort the face are also considered acceptable. Additionally, fabric cut at 1 to 3 cm from the edge is acceptable. Stains on the inside of the fabric are also acceptable if they do not appear on the right side.
Please be aware that fabric may shrink after the first wash, so we recommend purchasing slightly more than the exact length required for your project.
We cannot cancel or refund orders once we've cut your fabric. If a refund is necessary, a 5% administration fee of your total bill will be charged.
We cannot offer refunds or compensation for items purchased a few days before they go on sale.
If a product is sold out, we'll contact you immediately to offer either a refund of the item at the price you've paid or a replacement with a product of equal value.
