My very first sewing machine and I am very pleased. Easy to use. I'm just learning so I'm not familiar yet with all it can do. So far so good!

4423 Heavy Duty

I replaced an old Touch and Sew with this machine. I sew tents, dog harnesses, collars, leashes, chest packs, and other outdoor equipment and also do modifications on existing hiking/backpacking products. I am about to start a major new tent project and have been working on smaller projects to get a hand on using the machine before I run a bunch of fabric through it. So far seems like a great little machine. It is racing car fast and the stitches of its straight stitch line up perfectly. I tried using the button foot to mend a couple of shirts missing buttons and had a bit of difficulty. The thread on the bobbin side kept bunching up making huge thread clumps. This is the same manifestation that caused me to get rid of my old machine. Obviously it is something I am doing. But I don't know what. If you read this review and know the answer please see if you can respond. I would really appreciate it. In the mean time I will ask customer service then I can write a review on their response.

Excellent Machine

Although I have to admit, I am new to sewing. Being a Man its kind of hard to find information on the subject. After doing some research on sewing machines, I chose the 4423 Heavy Duty model. My initial intention was to use it for sewing garment quality leather. It worked well, seeing how I had NO sewing experience what so ever. I then moved onto other projects, little ones like sewing two coats for two pups. It worked really well for this. I have to say, this machine is sturdy. I have since moved onto other materials, namely 80% polyester 20% Lycra. After realizing the importance of needles, with the leather. I quickly went and bought some ball point needles. I have to say, you have to have the right tools for ANY given job. This machine really does handle it. Looking for different presser feet, there are alot of them which fit this machine. At the nearby Singer Authorized Repair facility, they toolk the time to try out several different ones with me. Online they do not offer a big selection of available presser feet. I have a pretty good list of new items, I eventually will need. At the store where I purchased this machine, they tried to sell me a different make, other than Singer, but seeing how My Grandmother used a Singer, My Sisters used Singer's, I felt relatively secure in choosing a Singer. The quality is excellent and this machine really does a good job. Money well spent if you ask me.

I had a singer yrs. ago & bought a different one that was suggested to me by a friend who said it was better. Wrong. I am back to a singer & love it.This machine is great for what I wanted to use it for. Will go through light or heavy material & easy to use & thread does not jam up like the previous one. Very good machine.

"A Guy Machine"

I'm a 66 year old male and I needed a "guy machine" not a wimpy to many buttons kind of machine. Don't get me wrong the Singer 4423 has lots of extras. The 4423 was the perfect choice. I'm big in the belly and short in the legs so I always have a problem with pants that are too long legged. It cost me $8.00 every time I had my pants hemmed up. The Singer 4423 does the job easily. Like I said I'm a little too round so button popping is also a problem. The 4423 has an easy button sewing foot. No more sticking my fingers trying to hand sew those suckers. Oh and my eyes are a bit tired so threading a needle has always been a challenge. No more, the singer 4423 has a really great built in threader. At 1100 stitches per minute it made fast work of some black-out curtains I made for my t.v. room. the Singer 4423 is so much fun to use I'm constantly looking around my house to find something to sew. For instance my dogs chew up their stuffed toys. But now they are happy because I can sew up their toys instead of throwing them out. There, another savings. The 4423 has already paid for itself. My 92 year old mother has a Singer she bought during WW2. She still has it and it still works perfectly. That's why I knew my 4423 would be a great machine. Love it-love it-love it.
