This sewing machine is awesome for a basic sewing machine! Nothing is complicated. I am a true beginner and I have had no problems threading the machine or even winding a bobbin. The instruction manual is very easy to follow. It comes with many attachments and tools (that I don’t know how to use) so you actually can go beyond basics (like hemming pants in my case). The machine is very lightweight and comes with a nice case. The price is not at all expensive, especially if you catch it with super saver shipping (thanks, Amazon). The only “issue” if anything is the plastic foot pedal; it is very easy to start stitching really fast. I was used to a heavy metal one before…there is a difference, but that’s my issue, not the sewing machines.

This is a great sewing machine and I got a great price on it. Easy to use and not too big and bulky. Does just what I need it to.

We purchased this Singer for my daughter. She’s been asking for a sewing machine for years (she’s 15). It was easy to thread, easy to understand, and easy to work. Even better, it’s quiet! Very good deal for the money.

Love this little machine. Easy to thread. Runs smoothly. Helpful note: When you put in the bobbin, make it sorta “click” to stay in place.

This machine may not have all the stitches and options of machines costing twice as much, But this machine is easy to use and is solid. If you’re a beginner you may have some trouble with bunched thread and things like that until you learn the quirks of the machine. But once you do it will run reliably with no problems for as long as you need it.

I’ve worked with those really old, big, and clunky sewing machines when I was about 8-13 years old under my mom’s and grandmother’s supervision. Now I’m 25, and recently decided I needed a sewing machine of my own. I don’t have room for any big machine similar to what I was used to, so I thought a small portable one should do the job for me.
I got a really cheap $30 set from Walgreens, and that stopped working 5 minutes out of the box. Figured I ought to be a little more serious, so I opted to spend more than I really wanted to get this. I am very glad that I did.
I just got it today. The manual is super easy to understand. I’d never threaded a machine on my own before, but there is even a numbered guide right on the machine to tell you where the top thread goes. The guide on the machine plus the very simple instructions in the manual made threading the thing a breeze.
With the foot pedal, it’s fairly easy to control the speed. I’ve read some reviews on similar machines (a Brother one, in particular, that I was also looking at) with complaints of it going from 0 to 100 with nothing in between. Not so with this one.
It’s really quiet. It’s a little awkward having the top spool horizontal, but it works. It’s a little heavier than I expected, but that makes it more sturdy. It has a little storage compartment that’s really convenient and a nice way to keep everything in one place. It has a little lever for reverse sewing, which I really like. Comes with a neat little cover that has a slot at the top for the carrying handle.
Overall, it is a very straightforward machine that works great, is simple to use and easy to understand.
