Machine is excellent for heavy duty sewing, however, it is difficult to thread even with threader. There is not enough space for your hand between plate and machine to thread. Also, thread had a tendency to break with twin needle. stitching. Poor lighting is also an issue.

I bought this HD as a spare since I already have the CG550. This machine has a higher presser foot lift which is fantastic, needle threader which I'm needing more every day and more stitch choices. It is quieter than my original HD and feeds fabric better. It also has one step buttonholer which my CG550 doesn't. It is very quiet for a heavy duty. I have 8 Singers but my heavy duty machines are the ones I go to first and use them every day.

I make quilt tops out of remnants for our church women's group who finish them and send them to Orphan Grain Train and Lutheran Church Missions worldwide. I also do mending on the machine. It is a delight to use.

Couldn't be more pleased with this 4423. It's my my workhorse--handles everything. Bought it to have for the heavy jobs and also to have as a 2nd machine for when I'm sewing something which requires thread color changes often. This machines handles it all with ease and power. When I got it I took a strip of denim and folded layers in here and there to see how it would sew. This machine sewed down the strip up and over the humps like butter and without a vibration either. I was impressed as I had 14 layers in the little lumps. This would be a good starter machine for a beginner or to have as a 2nd machine for the heavy sewing. It does an equally nice job on sheer fabrics too. I am very happy with this machine! Just remember to use the correct size needle for the sewing job you're doing and you won't have any problems.

I have been using that for 4 months now. I always used my mother's oldest singer machine that last 20 years. But this machine was my graduation gift. I found few issues that need to be resolved. For example, the buttonhole foot, the function was not properly. It would not move to number 2 to 4. It stayed on number 1. The manual instruction was too basic. It would not help this troubleshooting. Button Foot works fine but not the buttonhole foot itself. The dial would not send the machine to make it function. I want to warn you to be aware that sometime bobbin gets stuck because that I realized the number 3 (Thread Take-up lever) would not hold the string very well if you sew over time and it get jabbed to cause the material stuck or bobbin thread oddly on the underneath of material. If it happens to you, make sure check the Thread Take-up Lever because sometime the string would not stay in. I wish that Thread Take Up Lever has hole itself, not slide under and hold it. Underneath Needle plate over, be aware that it can cause strings stuck sometime. I had to remove out and clean it out and to make sure it works fine. It was time consuming because there is no manual how to fix or clean it. I had to assume myself if it works right. (Wish that tools like screw or Flat head screw included for this machine) Many tools that were too big for this machine or others so i had to use the smallest tool but could not find one so my friend had to make it and bend the length to make it work. Prefer to have singer tools which it would be nice. Other than that, I like this machine for my first time sewing. I had other Singer Machine (cant remember the number) it was a huge problem and I had to send it back. Secondly, I like this machine and it was okay reasonable price but the function itself is not emphasized as heavy duty than I would thought. I hope someday Singer makes Foot speed control that has adjust or dial speed number to control the speed. I had hard time to control it. It would be nice to have accommodation for me. Like, slow, medium, fast, umlimited dial.. Something like that.

I have been sewing for over 50 years and find this to be a great basic machine. I also have a Futura XL-400 and a Singer Pro-Finish serger, so I only needed a basic machine for everyday sewing. It has met my expections and I'm very happy with it.
