Light and easy to use

This machine is so easy to use once you have managed to thread the cotton through to the needle. The hole is not easy to thread going from front to back and would be easier from right to left. Other than that I can find nothing else to say about it. It is good to have a choice of stitches.Read full review...

light and easy to use

good buy it works very well good value

Fidly to set up

I have never used a sewing machine before, so have nothing to compare it to. But the setting up processe was a huge faff with the tiny little bobbin that goes under the needle. It falls out very easily before you mount the holder on the sprindle and took quite some effort with my fat fingers. The machine itself runs perfectly when it is finally set up though. Hemmed my jeans effortlessly and in no time at all.Read full review...

A bargain machine for all basic stitching

To be honest I was not expecting a lot from a machine that was this cheap, but the Singer brand convinced me it was worth a go. Unfortunately the first one I received was faulty which was not a good start, but it was replaced quickly and without any quibbling (and collected free of charge).

The replacement worked straight out of the box with tension of stitching not even needing any fine tuning. The machine is lightweight but not too light, and quiet. All in all, excellent value for money.Read full review...
