Customer Reviews for Singer - 4452 Heavy Duty Sewing Machine - Gray

I bought a few weeks ago. I thought being HeavyDuty would do better. But bent 1 and broke a needle fixing the rolled edge of a bath towel. Won't do jeans well either
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this machine as a christmas gift to myself. I am very diappointed with the design. I find it very difficult to opperate. The numbers on the throat plate are too far to the rear and difficult to see. The voltage of the light seems to low to illumiate the work space. The all purpose foot is to wide, can't see the needle while sewing. I wish I had bought another model.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Biggest piece of crap. Has never worked right since purchase. Im going to have to pay to look at something I have never been able to use. Opened my old black singer to use instead. Unfortunately the cord is missing since my move. Hope I can find one
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased this recently. It is my third Singer 4452, but this one is different! I cannot remove the bobbin case without removing six different screws that are so small that I have to use a magnetic screw driver, a long handled screw driver, and “my husband” to do so! Not being able to simply remove the bobbin case so that lint can be cleaned from underneath is a pain in the neck and is very very difficult because the machine screws are so short. What a bummer, SINGER! I won’t buy another 4452 and I therefore do NOT recommend this product any longer!

High Quality Machine - Recommended by a Tailor
on October 15, 2025
Posted by: Leelee13
This is the best sewing machine out there IMO. My friend who is a tailor said it’s the one all the tailors have onsite for jobs. Can’t believe it’s so affordable and so good. I’ve had it for a year now and LOVE IT. Very durable and high quality. Does the job with no fuss.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Defective Bobbin
on October 21, 2025

I finally decided to face a life-long fear and embrace a dream! I decided that I COULD learn to use a sewing machine and make my own patterns. I am an excellent seamstress by hand and understand garment construction, but it takes SO LONG to realize a pattern.
I did so much research. I was meticulous . People that teach Pattern Making recommended a Singer Heavy Duty. This one was the best-rated. I bought all the accessories because I am experimenting with Fashion Design. I cleared a place in my apartment. SO EXCITED!!!!
Try a practice Straight stitch , a big tangle of thread jams up the machine. I have to take the whole thing apart, and change the needle. I try again. The machine exploded and the bobbin cover, bobbin, and bobbin housing from inside the machine flew at my face! Thank God I was I was wearing glasses. Definitely defective. It made me sob honestly. I was so disappointed.

I have been sewing for many, many years and already have two machines, not counting the 2 antique machines I inherited. I purchased this Singer because my dressmaking machine couldn't handle heavy or bulky fabrics. I wasn't expecting much, but it is perfect and has become my most used machine. The stitch quality is beautiful, and it handles all types of fabric. The straighforward design and features are a plus in my mind. I can make a lot of complicated things with this simple machine.
