I bought this after my Brother stopped working and I needed it for making masks. It is hard core. It goes through several layers of fabric easily and easy to use.
This is a great sewing machine at a fantastic price!!! I had one like it and wore it out, so was thrilled that I could get the same exact machine only now new. This is an easy to use machine that holds up well to a lot of sewing!
Love the machine and would buy it again and highly recommend

Had a sewing machine my whole life after receiving one for high school graduation. When I retired from my postal job after nearly 34 years I moved and decided not to take my sewing machine to my new small apartment and gave it to a co_workers daughter. When covid_19 caused a need for face masks I bought a new machine and have been sewing cotton masks. I'm enjoying sewing again_feels like the good old days.
Have wanted to get one for awhile - Covid time was a perfect reason to finally do so. Making masks for everyone now! And can't wait to learn how to read/sew patterns.
I use my sewing machine primarily for making clothing for the reenactment community. I am very impressed with the features of this machine (ease of bobbin winding, threading, tension and various stitch settings.
I don't know how to sew, but this machine made it very easy. I've made kitchen towels, dinner napkins and repaired the kids pants. Looking forward to what I will make next.
This machine is great. It sews perfect right out of the box. I expect many years of great sewing from this machine. It's easy enough for a beginner but does enough to be handy for someone with years of experience. I bought this exact machine for my daughter to learn to sew.
Made masks for my family. Made chair-covers, table cloths napkins, this machine is mine, sorry grandkids, not going to give this one away lol. Thank You Singer you never let me down in 45 years.
