I needed to change from heavy duty to lighter and simpler and I am amazed how well this is made. So functional and beautiful. This one will stay with me for long.
This was my first ever sewing machine, so you can imagine how excited I was, but it was a real disappointment… this machine jammed SO much, it’s not even funny. I’ve tried everything: rewinding, carefully placing, wax, conditioner, quality thread, easy fabrics— nothing worked. I wasn’t learning with this machine at all, so I finally returned it will all my disappointment. (Side note: the pedal sensitivity has very poor control. Lightly pressing just makes a whirring sound, pressing a little harder and the machine bolts.) Anyway, I really wouldn’t recommend this machine to anyone, especially someone trying to learn.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for leaving a review! We’re sorry to hear you are unsatisfied with your purchase. Please know your feedback has been shared with our development team. We hope we can earn your trust in the future.
The machine works well but putting the bobbin in the bobbin case was not as easy as they claim. Also not used to the levers being plastic. It’s good for a basic machine.
I recently bought this machine when my last singer died (31 years old). I was in the middle of a project and didn't do lost of research. Purchased this model best of recommendations from my quilting cousin. Sews find but missing key features from my old model: right needle position and top loading bobbin. Returned and bought model HD6380. So far so go.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Never have sewn in my life but decided to get this machine to make custom curtains for my home (and fix other things). Excellent, high quality, easy and fun to use.
