Defective Bobbin
on October 21, 2025
Posted by: Mumtaza
from Texas
I finally decided to face a life-long fear and embrace a dream! I decided that I COULD learn to use a sewing machine and make my own patterns. I am an excellent seamstress by hand and understand garment construction, but it takes SO LONG to realize a pattern.
I did so much research. I was meticulous . People that teach Pattern Making recommended a Singer Heavy Duty. This one was the best-rated. I bought all the accessories because I am experimenting with Fashion Design. I cleared a place in my apartment. SO EXCITED!!!!
Try a practice Straight stitch , a big tangle of thread jams up the machine. I have to take the whole thing apart, and change the needle. I try again. The machine exploded and the bobbin cover, bobbin, and bobbin housing from inside the machine flew at my face! Thank God I was I was wearing glasses. Definitely defective. It made me sob honestly. I was so disappointed.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Horrible machine overall. Arrived damaged and has already broken 4 needles in less than 10 hours of use. Considering the price tag and the overall reputation of singer, I expect better. Have since filed for a refund.

I purchased a 4452 Sewing machine and received it on April15th. Started making a mask noticed the machine is not sticking properly. After waiting 1 hour and 15 minutes on hold your tech support told me to send it back. No replacement. You would not even offer an exchange. In addition I still am awaiting a return label. Very disappointing.

Very complicated to use and terrible, unhelpful instructions, both in the box and online. Customer service is horrendous -- no reply to multiple emails, and phone number listed does not connect to a representative. Very very disappointing customer service and abysmal operating instructions.

Sewing Again

I am back to sewing after at least 40 years away from the craft. This machine has made it very easy to do that. The numbered system make it very easy to thread the machine. I like the ease of filling the bobbins. I have sewn several craft projects and like how the machine handles different tensions for fabrics and several layers of fabric. I love the inclusion of so many different stitches. This lends itself to great creativity for my projects. I have use the zipper foot and it worked great in either position. This machine has made my venture back into sewing quite enjoyable.

I only bought the sewing machine to help out front line workers, one being myself, to make masks. I haven't sewed in about 25 years, But a saw a need. It has been the most rewarding purchase in a long time. I'm not the best sewer, so this was perfect for my needs. I even started making surgical caps. Thank you for getting it to me so fast.
