Very Misleading use of "Heavy Duty"
on October 9, 2022
Posted by: spbrick
from Two Harbors, MN
Two of these 4452 machines broke on me in less than the first two months of use. I was simply sewing hook and loop material on to polyester strap webbing. There is actually nothing heavy duty about sewing these types of materials except the are a little thick. I chose to use a #18 leather needle because that type of needle has a cutting top which would make it easier on the machine. They still broke dispute the extra precautions I took to protect the machines. I was even hand turning the stitches over strap layers and using the Singer so called walking foot. Their walking foot is not a walking foot. Using the term walking foot to describe this foot is simply misleading as well as the term "Heavy Duty". At best, this machine should be described as robust home sewing and definitely not "Heavy Duty".
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Don’t buy

I bought this 2 months ago and it completely stopped working the other day. I called singer to see what can be done about this and how to warranty it however I was told that “you don’t live near a warranty centre therefore nothing can be done.” Ridiculous for the price especially since the machine was well taken care of and properly oiled. Will not be purchasing a singer machine again.

Major Dissapointment
on January 18, 2023
Posted by: Gavin
from South Carolina
I have had singers for a very long time, 15-1's, industrials 111w155 but today I bought a 4452 and the thing was so out of time that I stitched a straight stich about 8 inches long and then it all went down hill fast, out of time, feed dogs not moving the material stitch selector dial unable to rotate to a selected stitch....I was so tuned into enjoying my new singer but my excitement of it features and supporting another singer product was destroyed....tried to get some tech supportto explain all of this and all I got was " chat" from a singer chat box robot...groan!

I bought a Singer after owning Kenmore and Brother sewing machines for 40 years. Its a good machine, has a lot of power, can sew through multiple layers of fabric with ease which is what I was looking for.
The only downside is the sewing table is smaller than what I had expected. It's about 3 inches shorter in length and 2 inches in width which may not seem much but is a necessity when working with large projects.
I guess manufacturer has to cut cost somewhere!

Was great until it wasn’t

Husband bought this for my birthday last year. i have used it a handful of times to repair a few things to get comfortable with it. Now the feed dogs aren’t working right, it’s jamming, bird nests every single time. I have rethreaded , checked bobbin,needle the whole 9. Singer only gives a measly 90 days and directed me to repairs 3-4 hours away. Practically brand new machine is going to get booted to the garbage. No one around me services sewing machines, and now we’re out money. Heavy duty my rear end. Thanks for nothing singer. I’ll never own another one!

This machine is living up to its "HEAVY DUTY" name!!! I made this review for 4 stars as I find the bobbin winding process strange and a challenge to do (this is not my first machine, my first machine was my mom's featherweight singer, but I also have a babylock and a Janome basic machines). Also the threading of the machine is odd & cumbersome and makes a mess of your sewing if off at all. The last step before threading the needle is cumbersome and challending to do.
But once it's setup it flies through my denim jacket!!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!
