When it works it's good
on October 14, 2024
Posted by: LavandarBunny
from Georgia
If it didn't trap my top thread so much I'd like the machine better. I just bought one less than a month ago. It worked okay at first but now it constantly traps the top thread no matter how many times I rethread and clean the machine. I wanted to up my game with my stitching. This machine just makes me want to go back to my old one and say forget it. Only reason it's not 1 star is because I got through at least 3 projects but my current project took longer than usual because of the top thread issue.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I’m finding a hard time with needle threader. It feels very fragile and never got it to work properly. I finally broke it last week. Cheap plastic. Maxine sews good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not exactly handy.

I bought this 6180 Singer sewing machine 4 days ago. I was in a bit of a panic because I have a big project I'm working on and my previous machine - a Singer 7258 Stylist has a gear sprocket that is broken. I'm not sure that I can get it fixed or how long that would take. This new machine is a little disappointing. The bobbin is front loading and not convenient to get to. You can't see how much thread is left on it without removing the top part of the machine base and opening the door where the bobbin is held and removing the bobbin. The needle is difficult to change also. You almost need two people to do it due to the fact that part of what holds the needle in falls apart when you unscrew it. Putting the needle and it's holder back together is difficult. I regret not doing more research before purchasing this machine.

My grandma bought this machine for me for the christmas of 2024, I didn't work correctly out of the box. Although all i needed to do i give it a nice oiling then i sewed like a seewed and sounded like a sewing machine song.

I have this and I hate it. It’s never worked correctly. The bobber setup is absolute garbage.

I’ve never worked on a more frustrating machine. Bobbin won’t connect with upper thread, jams constantly I just can’t to sew a straight line and can’t do it.
