I love this machine, simple, sturdy fast...the best feature is the auto threader. Even though i use this for basic projects I can foresee using it for much more. Buy it you won't go wrong!!!
I am embarrassed to share that both my parents own sewing machines and are master seamstress (mom) and expert sewer (dad). However, neither of them ever taught me or my two sisters (now in our 40s) how to sew, not a stitch. I recently purchased the Singer 4452 directly from the company. Purchasing online from Singer was simple and at a good fair price compared to other venders. The machine is awesome. I live 3,000 miles from family these days. This machine has given me and may parents something else to talk about. In 7 minutes or less, mom had me up and running. Dad is impressed. Also, the Singer instructional videos on their website and YouTube are terrific. I'm running out of fabric to practice on. Luckily, my husband recently lost 50+ pounds and has plenty of shirts to discard. Instant practice fabric, yahoo. I'm enjoying this machine. I highly recommend to all.
The machine works well. Since I am a beginner took a little time to set it up. Now things run smoothly and the app helped. I made a shirt for my dog as practice and it turned out well. Look forward to making other things.
I love the design and fluidity of how the machine looks. It has speed to get the job done. The power that it displays is a definite bonus. I have been making masks for my family. Next project masks for some of my Native American brother and sisters. Thus far there is nothing I don't like about the machine.
This machine is great! I have been sewing safety masks non stop since I got it! Only a couple of issues with the thread snagging. I haven't had time to Read up on cleaning it so probably should do that. I am sure there is some lint building up with how much I am sewing.
