I was hoping this machine would sew over leather. It could not handle the thickness. For cotton fabric you will enjoy the machine.

So far not impressed! I got this to go through cording doesn't want to sew through and the pressure foot does not lift up easily. The owners manual that came with it is horrible.
The machine works well. Since I am a beginner took a little time to set it up. Now things run smoothly and the app helped. I made a shirt for my dog as practice and it turned out well. Look forward to making other things.
I have only had this sewing machine for a couple of weeks, but so far it has met my expectations. Ask me again in a year and I expect I would have a more solid recommendation. The last Singer I owned was purchased by my mother in 1961. I had to give up on it after 50 years. I do still own a Singer Vibrating Shuttle originally owned by my great grandmother and it still works, even the bobbin winder. I have owned one sewing machine that was not a singer and it lasted less than two years. It was not sturdy enough for the type of sewing I like to do.
It's nice and light weight. Easy setup and instructions although I prefer a book with it instead of downloading and printing. The book helps with problems that arise over time. The only thing I miss on my cheaper computerized model is a butter to raise up the need when done instead of winding it up.
Singer is a good solid brand machine, I remember from over 50 years ago. So there was no doubt that I chose a singer model 4452HD, which has everything I need and some. I love it.
