After using the same machine for over 40 years, it is going to take time to get acquainted with a new one! Old friends are hard to part with. So far, I am liking the new 4452 singer. I am not a casual seamstress, I am serious and tackle big projects, I was in the middle of a project when my old reliable machine became terminally ill. Guess what! The Heavy Duty 4452 popped up in my email! Thank you Singer for coming to my rescue.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you so much for the 5 stars and for taking the time to write your review of the Singer Heavy Duty model 4452 sewing machine. Our goal is for you to have the best sewing experience possible. We greatly appreciate you for sharing your experience with other shoppers.
My first experience with a Singer sewing machine to replace an old Brothers. This machine works for basic stitches, but when it comes to doing button holes and other fancy stitches, it will not work. I've tried every tutorial, every troubleshooting guide and recruited the help of an experienced friend; my machine will absolutely not do button holes. I occasionally hear clunks, thread breakages, and it jams in a way that requires disassembly of the machine. I've spent more time fixing jams than I have used the machine. Overall, I'm disappointed and will be sticking with other brands.

I ordered this as a stand in while I get my sewing machine serviced. I returned it after trying to sew a mask.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’re sorry the Singer Heavy Duty model 4452 sewing machine didn’t meet your expectations. Please feel free to reach out at https://www.singer.com/Contact-Us with any further comments, concerns, or suggestions you wish to share.
Exactly what I wanted, easy to set up and a mechanical machine that looks like it will stand up. I make a lot of repairs on my husband's tough construction clothes.
Ordered this with a good price. It has served well for a few projects with thick seams and lightweight mending. Singer is a good name from 50+ years ago. The machine doesn't feel like it will get pushed around due to it make-up of a metal frame. Easy to thread. Still haven't figured out the self threading of the needle, but my sight still allows me to thread without too much difficulty
