So far so good! My Quilters Confidence machine only last 6 years. I'm hoping this one will last longer. I'm old school, wish it came with a handbook instead of going online to get information.
I am very pleased with my new singer machine. I haven’t sewed on a new machine since the late 70’s when my mom got hers. Then in home Ed class at school had the very same machines. Yes I know I am showing my age. But point being…I am a SINGER sewing machine girl. I was really leery about getting a machine with a computer, but so far everything’s been fantastic.
I bought it as a gift for my daughter. She loves it. Her only complaint was instructions were not as good as they should have been. She watched some videos that were posted by other users and found what she needed to know.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Verified Purchase:No
Purchase this item because of the bonus quilting feet that you had listed ie;The Patchwork 7285Q sewing machine is designed with quilting in mind. It has 100 stitches from which to choose, you can make and embellish quilts, as well as sew fashions, home decor and much more. Programmable needle up/down is a must-have for quilting, sewing appliques and even top stitching. When you select a stitch, the optimum stitch length and width are selected for you, saving time. Customize stitches to personalize projects using adjustable stitch length and stitch width, viewable on the LCD screen. You can even set the maximum sewing speed of the machine using the speed control lever - slower for free-motion quilting or faster for those long seams - you're always in control. Sew buttonholes in one easy step with consistent results every time. You can even choose from 6 different styles of buttonholes - like the basic bartack style, round end and keyhole, great for menswear and outerwear. Take off the Removable Storage Compartment to access the free arm, which makes it even easier to sew around trouser hems and cuffs, children's clothing and other smaller projects. Bonus quilting accessories are included: the Quarter Inch Foot for piecing as well as sewing other small projects, the Even Feed/Walking Foot to help keep quilt layers from shifting, the Satin Stitch Foot for sewing appliques or more dense decorative stitches, and the Darning/Embroidery Foot that allows you to do free-motion sewing like stippling, thread painting and monograms. I cant use this machine More included Accessories all I wanted was the bonus quilting feet that's why I bought this. Which was not in the box. I feel this was a bate and switch. I ended up missing out on a great deal with brothers because my Mother always believed in Singer. well I cant believe that's true any more.
Response from singer.comBy singersewingpwr, singersewingpwr, December 19, 2019
Dear Upset in Florida, standard accessories should be located inside the free-arm compartment, but you Bonus Acessories are generally in the 'arch' area of your machine. So sorry if they are missing. Singer will be happy to replace them. Have you called Customer Service at 800-474-6437 or emailed them at TalktoUs@Singerco.com. Please contact us for the missing items.

A quilt destroyed

Initially, I loved this machine. It's quiet, has an even quilting stitch, and a long arm - ideal for quilting. Then, it leaked black oil all over my quilt, ruining two white pinwheel blocks. Definitely no need for so much oil on a sewing machine.
New to the sewing world and was looking for a good deal. This machine was an exceptional value and a great quality product. Really got me interested in sewing and i have been using it daily. I am beyond happy with the purchase. It also arrived a lot sooner than they advertised. I can see myself doing many projects and this product lasting for years to come.
