Title: Excellent Machine! I love it!
Review: I love this machine, it glides through stitches like a hot knife through butter. The feeder teeth give good traction and move the material through the machine perfectly.Even jean material. I had a 25 year old Kenmore sewing machine before I bought this one. I had never tried a singer machine before. My mother who went to school for sewing, at the fashion institute of New York, says that Singer is an excellent brand. So I bought this one after reading a lot of Amazons reviews and talking to her. I used to have such a hard time taking up jean pants on my Kenmore. Whenever I would get to the seam on the jeans, I would have to turn the needle manually, while hold the presser foot in the furtherest up position. This machine went right over the jean seams like it was not even there. It didn't get stuck, it didn't slow down, it didn't even sound strained at all. It just plowed right through it, like a champ. Love it. I love the fact that it does not have one of those computer screens on it as well. Those are annoying.This machine is easy to use, once you read the manual. I sat down and read the manual in about 45 minutes, from cover to cover. The manual has clear pictures and step by step instructions for threading the machine. Once I followed the instructions it was a piece of cake.This machine also has the option to turn off the feeding teeth. Which is new. My last machine did not have that option and I could see that being a useful feature.The thread spool sits on it side instead of upright which was new to me as well. One thing I had a momentarily problem with was, the spools thread holder slot on the top of the spool, caught the thread and then caused the thread to break mid sewing. If you encounter this problem turn the spool around and it solves the problem.The machine uses standard bobbins so I am able to use all my bobbins from my old machine which was nice. However all of my pressure feet from my old machine do not fit on this model. The needle size on this machine is 90/14, if you were wondering what size you need for this model.The adjustment dials on the machine are solid and well made. I am very happy with my purchase and hope this machine will last me for years to come. I will tell everyone I know who sews about this great machine.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________I just received the following product question about the warranty on this model."How long is the warranty of this machine? And if this product need to be shipped to Australia, can I get the warranty in Australia then?"Here is my answer.I just pulled out the warranty info on this machine, to look at, so I can answer your questions. The paper work says that it has a 25 year Limited Warranty. It says that the Sewing machine head is covered for 25 year for manufacturing defects. It has a limited 2 year warranty on the Motors, light assembly, wiring, switches, speed control and electronic components. It has a 90 day warranty on adjustments, belts, rings , bulbs and attachments.As for you second question, I do not know if Amazon or anyone else ships to Australia. You would have to go the website you wish to buy it from and try it. If they ship to your county, I would think they would allow the purchase to go through and block your purchase if they do not ship there.Your third question, can you get the warranty in Australia? Yes and no. The warranty is a contract that is legal binding that says that they will replace or repair you machine for defects. But they do not cover damage to the product. So if you or someone else or something else damages the machine (ex. tree falls on it) it is not covered. These damages could be covered home owners insurance, so check your policy. More examples of things not covered are drink spills, throwing it into a lake or dropping it. I know this because I used to be a warranty specialist at IBM (And yes, sometimes people really do throw their things into a lake.) But if your sew machine is defective they have to fix it or replace it. Here in the US they have approved repair shops in all 50 states for singer machines. I do not know if you have one where you are located. If it needs repair, you would most likely have to pay to mail it back to the US or Canada for repairs. Since this machine is so heavy, it would most likely be a better deal for you to buy a new one, then send it for repairs.If the machine is dead on arrival, send it back to Amazon, they are very good about returns and will refund you money with out much problems. Sorry I can't be more help about shipping practices, but I am just a person who bought the machine and used it. I do not work for Amazon. I do not work for anyone. I am a stay at home Mom.

Title: It really is heavy duty
Review: I wanted to give this a real workout before the return window closed, so I made a denim jacket. It handled four layers without a problem and six with a little easing. The variety of stitches is limited, but good for most sewing unless you want to do machine embroidery. The buttonhole function is easy to use. I would recommend downloading/printing the manual right away. The start up material in the box is confusing at best, but the manual is very clear and useful.

Title: Great Machine, Works Well, Really Affordable
Review: This machine is exactly what I wanted! While it's marketed as a no-frills, heavy duty machine, the fact that it can still do lots of different things is a great. It reminds me of the old Singers...mechanical wonders meant to last. It sews beautifully, is very straightforward to learn, and is much quieter than I thought a machine could be. I looked at lots of machines, much more expensive than this one, and they all had such mixed reviews I couldn't make a decision. Then this one popped up in my feed and I checked it out on several different sites...all good reviews. Because of the price, I decided to take a chance, and I'm very glad I did. This has been a great machine, and I couldn't be happier.The machine seems to go through both thin and thick fabric equally well. I've used it for thin cottons as well as barkcloth, both layered over several times for French seams, and the machine just sailed through without a hitch. I don't sew stretchy knits, so can't speak to the handling of those. The LED work light could be a little brighter, but it does seem adequate. I wondered about the horizontal thread spool holder, but it actually works very well. The only thing that I wonder about is that the actual spindle that holds the spool is plastic, and I make myself be mindful of it when changing threads so as not to break it. It doesn't seem extremely fragile, it's just that the machine would not work without it, and I don't want to take a chance!Winding bobbins is easy enough, and there's a diagram printed right on the top of the machine to make sure you thread it properly (easy). I do have to say that I stop the bobbins before fully wound, as they seem to over-fill a bit before popping off and stopping. It's not a big deal, it's just that they seem to do better in the machine if they're not over-filled. Inserting the bobbin is easy, just be careful to get the thread going through properly. Again, the printed diagram right on the bobbin cover helps with that. The bobbin sits in the machine horizontally, and the cover is clear plastic, so you can see how much thread is left on it...very handy!This machine is, I think, worth more than its price. I've had it for several months now, using it semi-daily, and have had no problems. It was nice to get something that does have enough choices to cover any basic sewing needs (zigzag, satin, straight, stretch, buttonhole, etc.), but a pleasant surprise that most of it is intuitive, has a short learning curve, and the manual was NOT an inch thick. Add in the fact that it is one of the more affordable machines out there, and I think it's a definite winner.

Title: I love this sewing machine!
Review: It has been a dream. I don't struggle with anything. It works as expected and makes sewing fun again. I would have liked a written manual but I realize having it online says money and wasteful paper use. The diagrams to load bobbin and thread needle that was included is very helpful.

Review: The box came to me pretty damaged, the delivery guy was nice and said I could always not accept the package due to the condition or return it if I find the machine not working - however it was working just fine! I've had it a week or so now and have already made a few projects from fixing hems to dresses to storage boxes. It seems pretty diverse and when I was talking to more of a professional sewer the other day, they said this particular machine was well known, plus I looked at youtube reviews beforehand comparing different machines and this one seemed to always win.On one project, the needle did break, but I think that was more operator error than machine error. The package comes with replacement needles already, bobbins, different feet like for a zipper, etc.Also, Singer has a youtube channel with all the tutorials for free so that helps getting things started.So far so good 🙂 I am glad I went with this one because now, in hindsight, the other "beginner" ones I think are too simple and I would have already outgrown them.

Review: Excelente maquina moderna, más profesional, puntadas hermosas, cuenta con diferentes niveles para posicionar la aguja, es muy sencillo usarla, es pesada, pero eso mismo ayuda aque no esté rebotado en la mesa como pasa con otros modelos de máquinas. Muy contenta con mi compra, todo funciona sin problema, todo es exactamente como lo anuncian.😃👍🏻
