Customer Reviews for Singer - 4452 Heavy Duty Sewing Machine - Gray

This machine, though it has lots of bells and whistles isn’t necessarily user friendly. I broke 6 needles just trying to see how the fabric moved while sewing. It turns out that you just hold the material and the machine moves it forward under the presser foot but that isn’t written anywhere. Also the manual is 100 pages. Really?! The price of the machine was great but I’m not a fan just yet. Maybe with time and a lot of practice.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Mostly pros, some cons.
Pros: good speed; can sew heavy fabrics, comes with walking foot (wonderful!); has a foot tension dial; winds a good bobbin; haven’t tried the buttonhole function yet; removable arm is easy
Pros: good speed; can sew heavy fabrics, comes with walking foot (wonderful!); has a foot tension dial; winds a good bobbin; haven’t tried the buttonhole function yet; removable arm is easy
Cons: the foot is not changeable by hand!! Unbelievably, you need a special tool/screwdriver and have to turn the machine on its side and have super-dexterity to just change the foot!!; bobbin cover pops on and off but is difficult to get in (as opposed to one that slides); throat is smaller than my 1990s lower level Singer; needle placement does not seem to align with the seam guide lines (e.g., 5/8 isn’t accurate); bobbin tangles easily until you get used to turning the wheel the right amount after done with a stitch run;
