I would give a rating of 4.6 if that was an option. I wanted a heavy duty machine that could handle thick fabrics. My old Singer still works like a champ but cannot handle the thicker stuff. The Singer 4452 fits the bill nicely. I already made a couple items and the Singer 4452 didn't even break a sweat. I love the increased speed as well. The only issue I have is that a few of the components are rather flimsy. The most important being the thread spindle. I am concerned that if I catch it by accident it will snap right off. I would think they could manufacture a piece that would be more durable without affecting the price too much. Still, I really like this machine and look forward to trying out some new projects.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great machine so far. I’d advise taking it to a repair shop straight out the box so they can oil it and check if everything’s working (the needle threader didn’t work but they fixed it). I’m a new sewer and jammed my machine the first time using it and had to get it fixed. Like a lot of people, I’d decided to start sewing COVID masks to sell or donate. My biggest issue with the machine is the foot pedal, it’s really fast so you have to apply light pressure when sewing. Overall, I like the machine and I believe it to be a good investment.

Dear Selly, Thank you for your review, we greatly appreciate it. We will share this with the Product Development team to let them know how we are doing. Take care and happy sewing.
The machine runs very smooth and handles multiple layers without difficulties. I only wish the manual came with the machine. I was able to download the manual and delete all the pages in different languages to cut down on the waste of paper before printing. I do request that you include the BOBBIN SIZE IN THE MANUAL. You list all the needle sizes but fail to mention the bobbin size needed. I finally found it by going back to the website and looking up the machine "specifications" and finally found it way at the bottom!! That took me over several hours of searching just to find needed information that should have been easily found in the manual. I expect to get many years out of this machine.
Needed a machine to sew leather. Bought this after a suggestion from my service site of my Phaff creative Icon 2. The Phaff could not sew leather with out jamming. The singer sews it like cotton! The machine is a bit loud, but a powerhouse!!
Love the new Machine! Just getting used to a few changes

Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the new machine and all the new stitches. The one being replaced is a Singer Genie from 1976 with 4 stitches (Still operates, but needed some minor repair and parts are obsolete). I love this new machine, but really prefer the reverse switch on the other one. Seems kind of at a bad angle on this one. But I can learn to live with it.

Heavy duty machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This SINGER® HD6360M Mechanical Heavy Duty Sewing Machine is sooooo much better than my previous machine. It is easy to adjust and maintain. It feels like it is easier to control what is happening with the stitch and the sewing is just easier. I have used it to make different types of face masks using multiple layers of materials with of all kinds of thicknesses. I have no complaints about the sewing abilities of the needle itself. This machine is definitely a workhorse and something I'd like to try using for my more heavy duty projects like hemming my thick jeans!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!
