Home sewing & mending / used Singers for 40 years. This machine is ok for home sewing but not the workhorse the old ones were. It is lighter (17 lbs) for carrying. Comes with a dust cover but no case. Does not come with a manual***! That must be obtained via computer. Note to Singer: give us the option of requesting a manual at purchase. Not all of us are computer whizzes.
I had a Classic and moved up to a Heavy Duty. I like It but I expected all parts to be of an upgraded quality. Plastic bobbins and the entire bobbin area are mediocre at best. I'm currently sewing facial masks; fleece robes and upholstery covered pillows, For the price, it's a good machine.
My very first sewing machine was a Singer which I purchased back in the mid '70's. I thought I was due for an update. I decided to stay with Singer since I was so pleased with their product. I went with one of their heavy duty models (the 4452). Back when I purchased my first machine they didn't even offer a 'free arm'. Plus, I do a lot of work with denim. This machine satisfies all of my needs.
Great machine so far. It handles easily and it's very sturdy. I've been sewing masks nonstop without any issues. However, I've noticed it doesn't do great stitching light fabrics with a tight seam allowance. That's okay, because it handles multiple layers without a problem.
I definitely recommend this machine! We have bonded! Lol! !

I started making masks on another brand machine, and had so many problems. It could not handle even the lightest weight fabrics. I finally decided it was time I returned to the brand my mother used, and I originally learn on. Singer is the best!

I really like the 4452 for it's stitching. It works well for me because I sew heavy material like denim and fleece which it seems to handle well. Only dislike is the bobbin winder. I had one break so I use another machine to wind my bobbins.
This model is easy to set up and use. I tend to pull out my sewing machine randomly for project. So started making masks , 260+, so far. Hope this is my last machine as my old singer which still runs lasted me 28 years. Quality made in America product goes a long way with me.
I have used this 4452heavy duty sewing machine to make Western shirt and a cover for my sofa..It has worked beautifully..I so proud I chose this machine..would recommend it to anyone that is serious about sewing..So easy to use..Thank you Singer..
