Amazon.com Product Description
Ideal for beginners, this easy-to-use machine works great for basic mending and sewing. It features a four-step buttonholer for perfect buttonholes, three needle positions to help get the stitching in just the right spot, a simple bobbin winder, and horizontal threading for smoother stitching. The unit's free arm makes easy work of cuffs, sleeves, pant legs, and other hard-to-sew items, and its adjustable presser-foot pressure comes in handy for heavier fabrics. In addition, the sewing machine provides seven built-in stitches, adjustable stitch length, a built-in light, a heavy-duty metal frame and powerful motor, a carry handle for convenient portability, and built-in accessory storage. Accessories include a pack of needles, four bobbins, two spool caps, a stitching guide, snap-on presser feet (standard, buttonhole, button sewing, and zipper), as well as a small bottle of oil, a feed dog cover, a screwdriver, and a seam ripper/lint brush. A canvas cover and an instruction manual in English, French, and Spanish are also included. The sewing machine measures 15 by 8 by 12 inches and carries a 25-year limited warranty.
Customer Reviews
Really love it and so glad I got it.
I've worked with those really old, big, and clunky sewing machines when I was about 8-13 years old under my mom's and grandmother's supervision. Now I'm 25, and recently decided I needed a sewing machine of my own. I don't have room for any big machine similar to what I was used to, so I thought a small portable one should do the job for me.
I got a really cheap $30 set from Walgreens, and that stopped working 5 minutes out of the box. Figured I ought to be a little more serious, so I opted to spend more than I really wanted to get this. I am very glad that I did.
I just got it today. The manual is super easy to understand. I'd never threaded a machine on my own before, but there is even a numbered guide right on the machine to tell you where the top thread goes. The guide on the machine plus the very simple instructions in the manual made threading the thing a breeze.
With the foot pedal, it's fairly easy to control the speed. I've read some reviews on similar machines (a Brother one, in particular, that I was also looking at) with complaints of it going from 0 to 100 with nothing in between. Not so with this one.
It's really quiet. It's a little awkward having the top spool horizontal, but it works. It's a little heavier than I expected, but that makes it more sturdy. It has a little storage compartment that's really convenient and a nice way to keep everything in one place. It has a little lever for reverse sewing, which I really like. Comes with a neat little cover that has a slot at the top for the carrying handle.
Overall, it is a very straightforward machine that works great, is simple to use and easy to understand.
Serviceable, useful sewing machine
This is a good all-purpose, low-cost household machine, although as a long-time Singer fan and former Singer sewing machine dealer, I don't care for the vertical bobbin design. It is compact and comes with it's own sturdy, attractive cover that allows you to carry the machine by its handle, so don't bother ordering a hard-shell case for it. The free-arm and accessory compartment designs are carefully thought out.
Singer Sewing Machine
Love this little machine. Easy to thread. Runs smoothly. Helpful note: When you put in the bobbin, make it sorta "click" to stay in place.
