After using the pfaff 130 most of my life I purchased the 4432 for its affordable price, lighter weight for travel and general trust of singer products. Although by no means heavy duty to which I was accustomed, it is very efficient for quick sewing and easy adjustment of tension and varied stitches. A general easy machine for a beginner young or old.
I bought several machines for my granddaughter. As she got older, I bought the next upgrade machine. A small beginner's simple operator, the next size up with zigzag, then now a heavy duty operating as her dress making skills improved over the last 10 years. Never any problem
Works fine for a standard running stitch, but once I changed to any other stitch the thread would get bound up in the machine and come undone. I tried many different ‘hacks’ to prevent it from happening, but no luck. It still unthreads and creates a mess.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We bought five of these machines for my university costume shop, earlier this semester. They are valiantly withstanding the rigors of the freshman sewing class and my 15 costume crew students.
I don’t own the black version of this sewing machine. But I do own other versions of it and think it’s good value for the money. Especially for its speed. Please, Singer, offer a matching black extension table for it, and I would buy it. I’d also like to see the 6800c in other colors, including black. With a matching extension table.
I needed to modify several of my denim jeans to be shorter and this was perfect for that. Love the machine's color, ease of use, and stitch options. I love the little light it comes with too so you can better see where you're sewing.
