Love this sewing machine!!

I bought the Singer HD6800C to replace the starter sewing machine I had. Out of the box this machine has just worked perfectly. My older sewing machine was constantly breaking threads, having bobbin issues, but I have not had an issue at all with this machine. I've made pillows, bowl koozies, table cloths, a jelly roll rug and piecing for quilts so far and no issues what so ever. Love all the time saving features like thread cutter, tie off button, needle up/down and all the stitches. Even tried the embroidery stitches and it works as well as could be expected. For the price I think this is an excellent machine and covers everything I would need in a machine. I truly enjoy sewing projects on this sewing machine.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beautiful for Quilting!

My husband bought this for me so I can use for Quilting. I have been sewing since 1976, & quilting for 6 years now. I started quilting on the Singer Patchwork, but wanted more throat space. I piece with my Juki & wanted the Heavy Duty 6800C for the power & decorative stitches for quilting. See photos. I love this! I have had no issues, I believe people just need to read the user manual & check their tension. Thanks for the great features!

Great machine. Very strong motor. Most of the machines are plastic and too flimsy. If you are going to buy a new sewing machine, definetly buy a heavy duty one

Poor quality

I bought this product in June, I have had nothing but problems with it. I can do a project without having to stop multiple times because it jams up. Now my reverse is not working correctly. I will never buy another one.

a few modest Features make the difference.

I‘m very new to sewing and had already purchased a Heavy Duty 4452. I was excited about all the new features and stitches in the 6800C.
Surprisingly though there's been just a few other features that have made this machine so much better for me as a beginner: Tie off stitch, Automatic up needle and variable speed control.
Tie off stitch.
There's a button to on the front of the machine that does a tie off stich or secure stitch. This secures the stitch in a very small area. So the stich can right up to the very edge and tie off in the tiniest of areas.Of course the machine still does a backwards stitch of you need to reinforce or tie off the stitch for a wider area.

Automatic up needle.
Actually the default is automatic up. So when to take your foot off the pedal the machine continues forward to the needle in the up position. It can also be configured to be automatically down. On top of that a quick press of the pedal will move the needle forward a half stitch. So if it's up it'll move to the full down position so you can pivot the fabric or back up again. Nice!

Variable speed control.
I love, love, love the Heavy Duty 4452, but one of the most frustrating things was the machine would seem to lurch forward with the slightest press of the pedal. With the 6800C there's a slider on the front of the machine that controls the top speed of the machine. So for winding a bobbin, or a long straight stitch on a big project the machine can go really fast. For a small project, with tight stiches the top speed can be reduced to allow a lot more control, and the speed is constant. As a beginner this little feature has been the best thing to help with control and quality of my projects.
