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

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought the 4452 machine sometime in October 2024. I have always owned Singer and always been happy with it. I wanted a machine that would do light and heavy fabrics. I just needed a basic machine, this has more than I need but maybe I will get to using more of the features. I have been sewing for about 60 years, will take a little time getting use to the tensions, witdth & length of stitches, I did print the manual it would have been nice to be able to just print English.

I learned to sew on my great-grandmother's treadle Singer. I purchased this Singer to replace my 1970s metal Kenmore that I regret having given away. I was looking for a basic machine and this is basic, but it very light weight metal and flimsy and it did not stitch smoothly (not talking about tension) -- it was kind of jerky when producing the stitches. Don't know if a more expensive machine will give me what I'm looking for, but I will not buy online again -- there is nothing like trying a machine out in person before purchasing. Singer was wonderful about allowing me to return my machine and gave me a quick refund.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

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

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.
