Kind of a let down

I bought this machine as my first "professional" sewing machine and had so many plans for it. When it arrived I used it for no more than a week and it stopped working. I called my local sewing machine shop to see if they could tell me what was the problem turns out the timing was off so it had to be fixed (yes and it was only after a week). They told me that that happened a lot with these types of machines. I said screw it I'll just return it, but because I have been working a lot the 30 day free return period passed and now I can not get a refund. I could go get it fixed but the closest warranty center is over 35 miles away and I don't have the time to go. It sucks that I looked forward to making art and let my creativity flow for such a letdown.
Very quick delivery, nearly perfect condition. I got it to make a cover for my 17' boat (N.E. Dory) Worked great, sewing plastic tarp. Rank beginner. Only complaint was that needle threader was not aligned, no instructions for correcting that. Looking for a good solution without taking machine in for service.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ugly color, but a good machine. Wore out the gears on my old Touch&Sew, so I needed a new machine. Variety of stitches is good, but no chain stitch for basting. Bobbin must be wound on top of the machine rather than in the bobbin case. Came with several extra feet. Hoped my old feet would work, but this is "low profile", so had to buy extra feet too.

We are grateful that you took the time to leave us a review. Your feedback helps us to improve service for everyone.
no Manual included, so you have to get on the internet to find out how to use it. All they give you is how to thread machine and how to fill the bobbins.

The needle positions doesn’t work on either of my heavy duties don’t know why and the speed is slower than my last heavy duty. But all in all a work horse nonetheless.

We regret to learn that you are having issues with your Singer Heavy Duty model 4452 sewing machine. Needle position for a straight stitch can be adjusted two ways on our Heavy Duty machines. The first way uses the needle position dial. The second way uses the stitch width dial. To center your needle, your needle position dial needs to be set to center position and your stitch width dial needs to be set to “0”. The needle position dial will not function unless the width dial is on “0”. If this doesn’t resolve your issue please contact us at: https://www.singer.com/Contact-Us and one of our Customer Care representatives will be happy to assist with you.
I'm using this to sew marine grade vinyl for boat seats. Works great. No issues.

It's working well. I'm loving it. I'm 68, have been sewing since about 8-10 yrs old, and this is my first new machine. I especially wanted something heavy duty, no frills and one that could manage seams in jeans, etc. I've been using it for this and it's working. Thank you! I'd recommend the machine.
