I bought the 4452 machine sometime in October 2024. I have always owned Singer and always been happy with it. I wanted a machine that would do light and heavy fabrics. I just needed a basic machine, this has more than I need but maybe I will get to using more of the features. I have been sewing for about 60 years, will take a little time getting use to the tensions, witdth & length of stitches, I did print the manual it would have been nice to be able to just print English.

We are sorry that your new 4452 is having issues with the tension. Please reach out to our Customer Support Teams at 800-474-6437 for personalized care.
I learned to sew on my great-grandmother's treadle Singer. I purchased this Singer to replace my 1970s metal Kenmore that I regret having given away. I was looking for a basic machine and this is basic, but it very light weight metal and flimsy and it did not stitch smoothly (not talking about tension) -- it was kind of jerky when producing the stitches. Don't know if a more expensive machine will give me what I'm looking for, but I will not buy online again -- there is nothing like trying a machine out in person before purchasing. Singer was wonderful about allowing me to return my machine and gave me a quick refund.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Earlier this month I purchased a 4452. On the second short project, the tension unit stopped working.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this machine last month. It lasted for two short projects before the tension assembly fell apart and stopped working.
I ordered this machine on the advice of a friend who bought one - because we were both looking for one that will work on all types of fabric (thick denims & also silk). It is working very well for me, so far. Runs smoothly and easy to use. I love the drop-in bobbin feature (my old machine kept jamming in the bobbin area). I also ordered the carrying case that fits it, and I love it. Never had a case for my sewing machine, so this is a luxury!
