What is Refurbished?

When a product is refurbished, it is made to look like and operate as a brand new item should. Many times it is as simple as the box being opened by mistake or for quality checks. Once the box has been opened, that item cannot be sold as new. Items with serious malfunctions are not refurbished, it would cost too much to refurbish them to 'like new' condition. Each refurbished item we feature is completely inspected, rerun down the production line and triple checked for quality before being packed and shipped. Most of the time the only difference between new and refurbished is the brown box and the lower price, which is your gain as an educated consumer. We are so confident with the quality of our refurbished items that we offer a full 30 day return policy with every purchase, so buy with confidence!

Singer CE-100 Futura Sewing and Embroidery Machine

2011-04-09T01:00:00.000-07:00

Product By Singer Sewing Co.

Product Description

A fully featured, electronic sewing machine with all the features you would expect PLUS an embroidery unit that is powered by your PC to allow you to use your imagination to create just about anything.

Amazon.com Review

When Isaac Singer invented his first sewing machine in 1850, little did he foresee the range of home machines available today. An embroiderer’s dream, the electronic Singer Futura employs the user’s personal computer to transmit dozens of embroidery designs from the internet, a CD, or a floppy disk onto a range of fabrics. A step-by-step tutorial gets the user started, and additional online customer support is also available.
Personal computer requirements for the Futura are as follows: Windows operating system 98, NT, 2000, ME, or XP; 64 MB RAM; CD-ROM drive; at least 500 MB (more is recommended) of available hard disk space; color standard VGA adapter; and a Microsoft compatible mouse. The machine features 80 stitch functions, a built-in needle threader, two styles of one-step buttonholes, programmable up/down needle for precision pivoting at corners and curves, drop-feed for freehand stippling and button sewing, and extra piercing power for heavyweight fabrics. The keypad on the front of the machine allows easy one-touch pattern selection and mirror-imaging of designs. Included with the Futura are two embroidery hoops: large (4-1/2 by 6-3/4 inches) and small (3-1/8 by 4-3/4 inches); and a bonus embroidery package featuring 60 built-in designs, including 2 fonts, plus another 60 bonus designs. Singer covers the sewing machine with a limited 25-year warranty. --Ann Bieri
From the Manufacturer
Singer is taking an innovative leap in sewing technology with the Futura sewing and embroidery machine. It is the first sewing and embroidery machine that uses a personal computer to power the embroidery features. Futura offers the best features of electronic sewing machines and embroidery machines at a fraction of the cost. Traditionally, higher priced sewing and embroidery machines have the embroidery software built in. The Futura’s embroidery features are powered by software installed on a personal computer (PC), which greatly reduces the cost.
Compared to other sewing and embroidery machines with similar features, the Future is a tremendous value, offering great features for significantly less money. It’s extremely user-friendly and the design options are limitless. It can all be done with the simple click of a mouse. The electronic sewing machine features 80 stitch functions. Other features include one-touch pattern selection and a built in needle threader. It also has two styles of one-step buttonholes to create the perfect buttonhole each time.
Getting Started is Easier than Ever
Futura can work alone as an electronic sewing machine but easily transforms into an embroidery machine via a USB cable connection to a PC. The software included is Windows compatible for versions 98 and up. The package includes a tutorial and singer also provides a consumer support website. This includes everything you will need to take you through your embroidery project. Even if you have never embroidered, no problem. The built-in "How-To" tutorial is like having an instructor right there with you.


*Click on what you need in the How To and step-by-step information appears.*	*The tutorial includes illustrations, clear color photos, and written instructions.*

The software includes 60 built-in designs plus another 60 bonus designs on a CD. There are two styles of included fonts to cover your lettering needs. Another unique feature of the Futura is the ability to use embroidery designs available on hundreds of internet sites or from embroidery design collections on CD or floppy disk. The Futura can use all popular home and commercial embroidery formats. You can download designs off the Internet, or you can use designs off a CD or floppy disk collection. Also, the Singer Sewing Company offers free monthly designs on their website, www.singerco.com. Once you select a design, you can easily display the number of colors in the design and the sequence in which they will stitch out. You can also change a color if you want.


*The Futura is compatible with all embroidery formats.*	*The Futura displays the number of colors and the stitching sequence.*

Before stitching out the design, you may want to view what it looks like with actual stitches. This is made possible with a "click" of your mouse on view and then on realistic view. Because the computer operates the embroidery unit of the machine, all that is required to send a design to the machine is a "click" on file and then a simple "click" on "Transmit to Futura machine." It’s that easy. In addition, the Futura software includes a listing of all the most popular embroidery thread companies. Simply "click" on the manufacturer of your choice. To change your color, "click" on "List Color". The Futura includes each manufacturers color chart; making it easy for you to choose the precise color you want. You can then visit your favorite sewing supply store and ask for the thread by color number.


*The Futura lists the most popular thread companies.*	*Included manufacturer color charts make it easy to pick the colors.*

Embroidery Hardware
The embroidery hardware includes a large (4-1/2 by 6-3/4 inch) and small (3-1/8 by 4-3/4 inch) hoop, which is ideal for design placement and hard-to-reach areas of garments. Other included accessories are a darning and embroidery foot, 3 bobbins, embroidery thread , spool covers, small trimming scissors, embroidery connector cap, handy vinyl accessory storage bag. Futura can handle all of the practical and creative needs of the sewer or crafter at any skill level. It is an example of singer’s dedication to bringing innovative products to consumers at an affordable price.
Representing the latest in innovative embroidery technology, the new Futura joins a family of sewing machines, accessories and notions that have made Singer one of the world's leading manufacturers and distributors of consumer sewing machines and a name that stands for quality. The Futura--innovation, value, and creativity in one package.

Customer Reviews

"Shark" 2009-12-05
By Patricia Gharrity
I've had this machine for about 4 years. My husband bought it for me so I could learn how to sew and quilt. It is so easy to use, I've learned so much with this machine. I have not had a problem with it in the four years I've had it.

"great up until now" 2009-10-20
By sbf
This machine served me well for about six months, but recently the top thread has been getting stuck in the bottom bobbin, jamming the whole machine. Upon doing some internet research, I discovered that this is a common problem with this model, but I was unable to find a solution. Like I said, I had no problems up until this point, and really liked the machine, but now I'll most likely be stuck paying an exorbitant fee to get it fixed.

"Wow, Shark has a lot of buttons" 2007-12-06
By SmartguyH
Okay, I just got back from the store and I am reviewing this machine vs. another one. This machine, the shark has all of the stitch designs that I'm looking for. You can't tell from the picture b/c it doesn't zoom close in enough, but it has lots. Some even look like the patterns you see on clothes in the store. Taht's a plus. It also gives great descriptions of what's inside. (Like # of bobbins, needle case with needles, foot, etc) It also gave button hole pictures so you get an idea of what it can do.I'm a novice to sewing with this machine. My first one was a VX1005, it lasted about 10 years. It still may even work and I just hit the wrong tension dial or soemthing. (if anyone knows let me know. I can't get even stitches or the same stitches at that. And the zigzag doesn't work well or at all really.) It also says it does embroidery and it has a quilt table.Anyway my concerns about this machine was that: 1.) it was a Shark. I'd never heard of Shark and I saw soooo many singer products around (needles thread, bobbins, etc) and 2.) no Shark accessories. So if my needles break or if i loose a bobbin, could they be replaced? I've used a universal needle but, I'm not sure if that's a solution or a problem. 3) if something happens like it doesn' work or anything, then where can i take it to get it fixed? JoAnns does Singer machines and they said there are a lot of singer places where i can get my machine fixed. So, I'm still debating on if i get this or not. It definitely has a lot of cool stitches and pattern designs...

"Good Sturdy Machine" 2006-12-07
By N. Bruske (USA)
I have not had a problem with this machine yet but I have only done one project with it. The instructions are fairly good and have pictures to try and explain the steps. It is nice that it comes with a case because that will run you $20. The auto-thread is nice but the instructions were hard for me to understand. I found a website that had better instructions and I got it right away. I would recommend this to someone.

"I like it" 2006-11-30
By E. Varad (Chicago, IL United States)
I am new to sewing and had this machine for a week now. I like the heaviness, the all metal construction that feels sturdy and durable. As with everything read your manual! I had some trouble sewing a buttonhole at first but a bit of common sense helped and my third try was perfect and the machine did it all by itself. The tension on the machine came perfectly set and I had no trouble with it. Threading was easy after the first few tries and I find I actually prefer the normal manual threading rather than the automatic threading. After doing some research I realized that many machines, even more expensive ones, do not offer adjustable presser foot pressure; it usually says it's pre-set. On this machine you can adjust the foot pressure, although that too came perfectly adjusted.I wish there was a way to sew at different speeds more easily. I am still too new to have a good feel for controlling the speed and I either go too slowly or too fast, but I guess this is a function of experience.All in all, I like this machine a lot and don't regret buying it.

"Awful machine!" 2010-06-20
By ekory
I bought this machine in January at a B&M store. I didn't do any research because I just wanted a basic machine and had read good reviews for Brother machines. This weekend I finally needed to use it to recover 5 cushions. What should have taken a couple of hours used up a whole weekend causing headaches and much cursing. I had to finish the project so I continued to deal with the bobbin clogging up, thread tangling in the upper mechanism, huge knots on the bottom of my fabric. I finished this morning hand sewing the final two seams. It's too late to take it back; I've learned a lesson here. It's going in the trash with less than 20 hours on it. My hb said to sell it or give it away, how could I do that knowing what a piece of trash it is?

"The machine couldn't even sew a simple straight seam!" 2010-06-08
By Just Another Linguist (Indianapolis, Indiana)
I just returned my Brother VX-1435 after two days of struggling, trying to get it to work. I've done plenty of sewing on other machines, but thought that since I don't use a lot of fancy features, I might as well get a basic machine. What a mistake!The machine wouldn't even sew a simple, straight-line stitch without skipping a stitch every so often - at least one every few inches, and at least once per seam it just quit sewing stitches at all and left you with two long strings of dangling thread. I tried everything to get it to pick up the bobbin thread - took out the bobbin case (an unnecessarily complicated setup, compared to any other machine I've used), re-threading the top thread, adjusting the tension (there's only one tension knob for both top and bottom) - I even took out the whole bobbin mechanism, following the steps in the manual, to check it. No luck at all.The instruction booklet says to call the company before taking the machine back to the store. I don't see the point, since they spent more time asking for phone, mailing address, e-mail, and fax (fax?) information than they did telling me to do what it said on the troubleshooting sheet. NO help at all, and the woman on the phone sounded like she'd never heard of this problem. I took it back to the store and spent the extra money to buy a machine from another manufacturer.

"Don't Do It" 2010-02-06
By cocopuff (east hampton, new york)
What a mistake it was to purchase this machine. Now that I look at the return instructions I see that I have to pay a 10% restocking fee as well as pay the UPS fee both ways (because it was "free delivery"). This machine is so primitive that I can't understand why they even bother manufacturing it.

"So far, so good." 2009-12-15
By Dee Marie (USA)
I am learning to sew again. This machine is very basic, but not more than I need right now. The instructions that came with the machine are easy to understand. It is very easy to set up and to use.

"I liked it until it broke after less than a year of light use" 2009-04-21
By Terra M. Nischik (Northville, MI)
I can't get the tension to work and I'm in the middle of sewing gifts for mother's day, great. I liked it ok but, now I'm irritated. Look for a better beginner machine unless the deal is SOOOOOO good you can't refuse it. I bought mine for $40 on sale. In retrospect, it was worth it but, now I need a new machine.

"Horrible" 2009-09-07
By B. McCaslin
Like in many of the other reviews i have had the same problems. Crooked stitching, broken thread every time i tried to correct the stitching, can not sew many types of thick or thin fabric, setting are very fast when plugged in and way to slow when operating on new batteries. Was using it to sew simple little dolls but it broke after maybe 5 uses and cannot get a replacement like promised with warrant when i purchased it.

"Not great, not bad- just not worth it." 2009-04-13
By Telichan
I definately thought this would be a great beginner sewing machine- and it is per say, but after using it for about two months, I broke the needle, had to replace it and found that it totally wasn't working anymore. It won't sew a thing now- and I'm really annoyed!! I bought this machine regardless of the fact that it had gotten some bad reviews, and now I totally regret it. I was using it to sew jersey material and such and it bunched up the fabric, came unthreaded constantly, and refused to sew more then two layers of any fabric whatsoever. I didn't expect it to be great, so I guess I can't complain too much- I just wish I could get my $30 bucks back. It's definately great if you're a beginner, and you're just hemming things, but there's no way it could seriously handle more than that. No way at all- trust the reviews, this many people can't be wrong.

"Great for the price" 2008-12-04
By Heather
I wasn't sure I would use a sewing machine, so I bought an inexpensive one as a "starter" and will upgrade when I gain a little more skill. But so far, it's been a great little machine. I was amazed at how many layers of cloth it can get through. I made a wall hanging in a snap. Someone with a lot of experience might not like it, but for a newbie, I've found it to be great.

"OK for limited use" 2008-08-02
By LFNYC (New York)
Like other reviewers said, its best use is for straight stitching and simple mending. This machine is NOT for beginners. If I had to learn how to sew on a machine like this, I would have given up the first day. In fact, if I had not had experience working in sewing factories and an understanding of basic mechanics, I probably would have immediately returned it, as several others said they did.A few of the problems with this machine? 1)It is unstable because of its light weight. I had my husband hold the machine in place while I sewed. 2)the feed-dog does not grip and push the fabric firmly enough. This makes stitching across flat felled seams, or going from one thickness to the other within the same seam (pleats, shirring, etc) impossible. 3)the tension (or lack there of) does not allow the thread to be pulled thru the tension lever. That is why, unless you slowly, manually pull the thread thru the guides, it will break when you finish the seam and want to remove the garment from under the presser-foot.Having said that, I don't have room for a real sewing machine at home, so I bought this for mending and simple tasks. Here in NYC, it costs $15.00 just to have a straight seam fixed, so after I figured the thing out and got it working, its paid for itself already. But to be clear, I could not imagine being able to make a garment with this machine.

"the dressmaker that couldn't" 2008-06-22
By S. Brosnan
i bought this machine because I am novice and have very limited storage space. For the first few garments I made, the machine was fine. I loved the size but then it all went badly. Thread breaking, the bobbin basically bounces out and binds the entire machine. If you are only using this to do the most basic mending...well, you are still better of doing them by hand. This would make a fine toy

"NOt userfriendly" 2009-08-06
By Eva L. Hallgren (FL)
If you don't sew too much it's a good little machine, but oh so frustrating to change the bobbin and every time you use the thread cutter the presser foot falls off. If I looked closer on this machine I would never have bought it, I would have made sure the bobbin loads from the top. If you want to put this machine in a sewing table, you have to crawl under the table to change bobbin. To thread a new bobbin you have to rethread...........summary. good for once in a while sewing and mending,priced good,but not user friendly.

"Lovely machine!" 2009-07-01
By hwest217 (VA)
This the first sewing machine I've personally owned. I grew up using my mom's Singer machine, so I knew I wanted to look at Singers before thinking about any other brands. I fell in love with the splash of red on this machine, and the fact that it includes all of the basic necessary features. Two pleasant surprises - 1. The thread cutter located to the left of the needle/presser foot. Definitely comes in handy! 2. The brush included in this set has a cap on one end covering a seam ripper. Very insightful.

I have had this machine for over four years. The stitching is beautiful and the embroidery features are a dream come true. I have not had one ounce of problems with this machine. It is so dependable I would recommend this machine to anyone considering on buying it. Go for it!! You won't be sorry!!

"I am totally thrilled with this product!" 2009-01-30
By James A. Kinman (Muskogee, OK)
I have been sewing for about 45 years (started young) and have been talking about getting an embroidery machine for about 5. I finally broke down and bought this one. I love it. It is an absolute necessity to have computer knowledge with this model as it interfaces with your computer. I would also recommend that your order a variety of threads and stabilizer to arrive about the same time. I hated waiting for my thread order, but had a lot of designs to do by the time it got here. This machine fits all my sewing needs with over 80 built in regular stitches and two hoop sizes for embroidery, plus the digitizing software. Awesome machine!

"Lots of fun" 2008-01-14
By lisamet (ALABAMA)
This is a great starter machine.. It will pretty much do anything you want...The sewing machine I can't tell you much about..I use it exclusively for the embroidery function. It only comes with the two fonts. If you are going to need script, you will have to find it and download it. It will take almost any format. I have been using it for nearly a year now and have had no problems..The instruction manual is awful It really doesn't tell you anything. You are left to your own devises as far as figuring out how to embroidery....Don't forget to drop the feed dogs when your in embroidery mode. A broken needle in that position can possibly make you have to have it serviced..timing jumps out...If you are just starting out be patient and just keep playing.

"Nice embroidery machine" 2006-10-26
By Memyself&I (Texas)
This is a fairly nice embroidery machine for the price.It does have a few things I don't like but overall I am glad that I purchased it.The embroidery designs sew out beautifully!And getting a machine that you can hook directly to your pc is definately the way to go! It elimanates pricy design disks and cards.You can find lots of great desings on the web to purchase and download to use on this machine plus it accepts many formats.What I don't like about the embroidery aspect is the fact that the large hoop is not a true 5X7.So I have to resize a lot of my designs to fit the hoop.I really wish they offered a larger hoop as an extra accessory!The digitizing software that comes with the 200 is not that spectacular.You can take simple clipart pictures and turn them into embroidery but nothing too complex and the software dosen't allow you to make appliques.I think you can get better digitizing software elsewhere.It also only comes with 2 fonts: courier and block.You can purchase a disk with extra fonts but the disks for this machine are expensive! I think they run around $200.The sewing part of this machine I rarely use mostly because I have a Euro Pro sewing machine that I sew on and comparing the 2 I am all for the Euro Pro hands down.This machine seams to sew a little "rough" in comparison.Overall I think this is a Great starter embroidery machine at a good price.

When a product is refurbished, it is made to look like and operate as a brand new item should. Many times it is as simple as the box being opened by mistake or for quality checks. Once the box has been opened, that item cannot be sold as new. Items with serious malfunctions are not refurbished, it would cost too much to refurbish them to 'like new' condition. Each refurbished item we feature is completely inspected, rerun down the production line and triple checked for quality before being packed and shipped. Most of the time the only difference between new and refurbished is the brown box and the lower price, which is your gain as an educated consumer.

"Terrific Price, Average Machine." 2009-10-31
By L. K. Spinnenweber (Glen Burnie, MD USA)
I purchased this serger from Walmart about a week ago. The low price is what lured me in, and I have not been terribly disappointed yet, considering what I paid for it. Sergers are fairly complex and take a lot more patience to operate than sewing machines. You can expect to put at least an hour or two into setting this machine up, and should plan on running a few scraps of fabric through it initially to adjust the tension dials, which can be a bit finicky and over-sensitive. The machine comes with a DVD that is INFINITELY more helpful than the manual, and with a lot of patience and several failed attempts, I was able to thread it correctly and produce a stitch. My only complaint is that the stitching can be inconsistent at times, no matter how much I fiddle with the tension dials, but I cannot say I expected a flawless machine at such a low price. This is a nice machine for those on a budget or who use their sergers lightly. I only use mine for finishing the edges of light-weight fabrics, and it suits my purposes quite well. A more expensive machine would probably function more consistently, true, but I'm thankful there's a serger out there that meets my more stringent budget!

"Too Frustrating!" 2009-06-03
By Sally (Virginia Beach,VA)
I just bought this - not from amazon but from Walmart. I have never used a serger, but I figured with a little bit of playing around I would get the hang of it. I have been sewing for years. Just trying to thread the thing is almost impossible! Then, every time I go to start sewing it jams and breaks the threads! I realize the tension is probably off, but after 20 minutes of trying to thread the thing, for only 5 seconds of sewing, I just can't do it again! I am returning this monster and I think I will try the Brother 1034D. Sounds much simpler and most everyone is happy with it!

"Great value" 2010-09-24
By Libby
I did my homework before purchasing this sewing machine. You really get good value for the price. So far I've been able to sew denim without any problems. This was my first machine and I was able to start sewing really quick. The machine is nice and quiet. I wish the instructions had included a dvd but you only get a booklet. I recommend this machine it does everything you expect.

By R. Kanno (Mililani, Hawaii)
Per my wife, the machine is easy to use. She loves the ability to wind thread on another bobbin without taking the existing spool of thread off the machine. Good price for the value.

"Awesome Sewing Machine for the Money!" 2009-10-28
By The Bear (Groveland, CA USA)
I purchased this sewing machine as a gift for my grand-children. When it arrived, I checked it out to make sure it worked well and was a good machine for them. I read the manual to learn about its' features and made all the stitches on a scrap of material. The machine is quiet, runs smoothly and makes beautiful stitches, plus it is lightweight and easy to transport.I was so thrilled that I kept raving, to my husband, about what a great little machine it is. In fact, I liked it so much, I decided to keep it for myself and I had to order another one for my grandchildren.This machine is way better than many machines that cost much more. I already have a Bernina (expensive) and a Singer Featherweight but I fell in love with this sewing machine. I would recommend it to anyone and, in fact, I did. I told two my friends about it and they each bought one.

"The Very Best!" 2010-06-01
By Guy May (EVERGREEN, CO, US)
I bought this machine for my wife's birthday. She is a quilter and was thrilled with the quality of this product. She has had several higher end sewing machines over the years but tells me this far and away the best she has ever owned! She says the features are outstanding and ease of use amaze her each time she works on her quilts!!

"what an AWESOME Sewing Machine!" 2010-05-16
By Joy Quinn (Toronto, Ontario)
I am sooo glad I bought this machine.. it's really quite easy to use.. within 1/2 hour of unpacking it, I was sewing away! Easy to thread, easy to use, the knee lifter for the presser foot and the auto thread cut are great. Very easy to change the feet, even while you are 'mid stitch'. Everything you would ever need is included. The extension table is a great plus especially since I am a quilter. I previously owned a Janome and wanted to stick with them and this model was a great choice! I highly recommend this machine! The only complaint I would have is the absence of a hard carrying case, ()although it does come with a soft cover.

"Wish I had the receipt.." 2010-08-01
By Daphne L. Brune (Houston, TX)
Please please please do not waste your money on this thing. We purchased it on clearance, thinking it would be great for our 5 year old daughter to sew with while Mommy sews. Yeah, no. It is INCREDIBLY noisy, and doesn't work at all. I am very familiar with sewing machines and machinery in general and this piece of junk is worthless. If you can get it to make a stitch at all it doesn't hold after you take it off of the machine - it instantly falls out. Save your money and see if you can find a 2 stitch sewing machine at a yard sale or something for probably the same amount of money. I ended up just breaking out my old 2-stitch Singer for my daughter to sew on since my she was so disappointed that this piece of ^&%* didn't work.

"Does not work--AWFUL design" 2010-07-29
By Sharon E Hallberg
My grandniece wants to sew--bought this with her birthday money. The stiches do not hold--just unsecured loops through the fabric--unravelled instantly. Set-up, especially threading, is extrememly difficult. she even tried exchanging it for another thinking maybe she got a lemon--the 2nd was the same. She was sorely disappointed. And it was a big waste of everyone's time as we all struggled to try to make it work. DO NOT BUY THIS!!!!

"Do not buy!" 2010-05-23
By blah (ga, usa)
As everyone else has said, this thing is horrible. My daughter was sooo excited about sewing, but it won't be happening on this thing. If I can't find a kid's machine that works, I'll just teach her on mine. I just get nervous about little fingers and fast moving needles.I had a kid's machine when I was little, but I don't remember the kind. It was red and yellow, I believe and had some 70's flowers. It was purchased in the late 80's at a thrift store, so no clue when it was made, does anyone know what this machine could be? It worked well.

"piece of JUNK!!!" 2010-03-25
By J. Kirby (Mountain States)
I, (the Mom) have been sewing for 20+ years and know the ins and outs of sewing machines very well. We've followed the instructions perfectly and this thing simply DOES NOT WORK! It has consumed a huge amount of time and producted an even larger amount of frustration! My 8-year-old would be far better off learning to sew on a basic, possibly used, introductory, REAL sewing machine-- which is preceisely what I intend to purchase after I throw this piece of junk away.

"JUNK" 2010-01-11
By A. Krupa
I agree 100% with the other reviews. This is a piece of junk and Singer needs to know this. Total waste of TIME and money. We are VERY DISAPPOINTED.

"Good quality machine" 2010-08-12
By R. M. Cook (Kansas)
Pros:

-2, 3, or 4 thread serging
-Color coded for looper threading. It took me about 10 minutes the first time I threaded it. I have threaded my machine several times in the last couple of months and I can now switch colors and rethread in less than 5 minutes.

-has differential adjustment

-has several stitch options

-works ok with cheap thread (better with the quality thread though)

Cons:
-The needles are held in place by hex head screws so you need an allen wrench. My daughter lost the one my accessory kit came with, and the manual does not state the size. Its 1/16" though.

-the accessory kit doesn't fit into the free arm space. I know that isn't really a feature, but I have a friend that has a drawer in her serger for storing accessories.

Overall, I would recommend this to my friends. If you have stubby fingers or poor eyesight go for a model that self threads. But for me this was a great purchase.

"Save your money" 2010-03-18
By Michael S. Schutz (Woodbury, MN)
We ordered this product and it arived very fast. Delivery service was very good. That is the only good news. This product is in a word "BAD." My wife, a very good seemstress, worked with it for two day and never did get the 4 tensions set to do a good job. We took it to a sewing center and they could not figure it out either. We ended up spending a bunch more money and bought a Baby Loc. No tension buttons at all!! You can sew any weight of fabric with any thread and the surged seem is purfect. Final word, Do NOT throw your money away. Buy QUALITY.

"Easy to start with" 2010-02-18
By Urd Megami (FL)
So far this has been fairly good to me. I was easy to use easy to set up. The only problem I've had so far is it was hard to find all the adjustments, and sometimes the stitching seems to be too wide or too long without an intuitive way to fix it. Other than that it makes quick work of seams and am waiting to wrestle with the other set ups such as the gathering stitch. The CD was very helpful to see exactly how to thread the machine. However after watching it once or twice the manual was the most helpful for reference.

"If I can do it, anyone can..." 2010-02-14
By R. Jones (Virginia)
I sew very little. I have been pretty much snowed in lately and thought I would give serging a try. My machine arrived in only 2 days and I began the daunting process of threading it. I noticed that it already had some thread in it and I immediately pulled it out. I was actually a wee bit annoyed that they had left it that way. Oh my gosh, did I feel ridiculous when I figured out my mistake! Soooooo, I threaded it manually using the written instructions. It took a little longer than an hour to do so and most of that was spent on the Blue needle. The others were relatively simple. If you are COMPLETELY in the dark about sergers, I think this is a GREAT machine to purchase. The color coding was a life saver and I was actually up and running in about 90 minutes or less. The DVD provides very useful information about tensions, etc and I was very proudly making new seams on everything in my house in no time. My only complaint was that out of the box, the machine had a heavy mildew odor. It lingered on the machine for a few weeks and I can still smell it although it is bearable now. Other than that, I would recommend it even to the fearful. Nice for the price!

"Super serger!!" 2010-01-10
By B. Heckman
I received this serger as a gift and love it. I have had a serger for about 20 years and love sewing with them. It was shipped very fast, arrived in great condition. It was packaged very well. I took it out of the box, set it up and started sewing with it. It does wonderful stitches, is easy to thread, adjustments are very easy to do. The instruction book is very helpful too. I would recommend this machine to anyone who loves to sew.

"not a heavy duty machine" 2009-11-02
By ahmediyah (usa all the way)
i am an seamstress, experienced in garment making and a variety of crafts. ive been sewing almost ten years. for most of that time i had an older, heavy duty kenmore that would sew a tree if i asked it to (mind you i never did).

what i like:

auto threader, decorative stitches, the led light,

what i dont like:

that said the 7462 is a very lightweight delicate machine. it does amazing decorative stitches with adjustable length and width, but it doesnt Like to do them. the machine whines, tensions have to be adjusted just so, threading has to be to a T, etc. that is a major discouragement b/c i originally bought it for those stitches.

also, ive already had to adjust the bobbin tension (even though it says you wont have to) and it sounds like it needs to be oiled after a week.

ive already sewed a couple of garments in the short time ive had it, besides numerous smaller projects. overall... i like what it can do, but wish it was better manufactured.

"It's okay" 2009-02-14
By athenalove46 (Alaska)
I purchased this sewing machine almost 2 years ago. At the time I could not find any helpful reviews online and so purchased it since I needed a new, good sewing machine.It has served it's purpose. It sews. But I have never had success with any of the decorative stitches. They don't come out the way they are supposed to and so I dont do them (which is bad because one of the features is all the stitches). It is loud and clunky. No amount of cleaning and oiling will change that. One annoying thing is if you do take your foot off the presser foot and want to continue sewing sometimes it won't allow you to continue so you have to press it again.Also sometimes I have major problems changing the stitch length/width. I'll have to slide it back and forth a few times before it registers and beeps.

"could be better...lots better" 2008-01-30
By Wifey (Maine)
After reading a lot of on line reviews, I got this machine in September 2007. Funny that at the time I could hardly find many negative reviews and the ones I did find were people who had a beef with Singer or a weird fluke that made their machine break. So I took the plunge. I'd had another Singer that lasted a good 10 years with sporadic use. I'm certainly no seamstress. This was more or less for easy projects and simple sewing. It was easy to get started on the machine. The buttons for the various stitches are great. The horizontal placement of the thread seemed like a great idea. The instruction book was clear. It is easy to perform maintenance on the machine as the screws are easily accessible. That's about where my joy ends and my complaints begin.

First, the lighting stinks. Second, it's LOUD. If you get to pumping away at a long line of stitching, it's like a jackhammer. Then there's the godforsaken foot pedal. Irritating? You bet! It seems to either go slow or super fast and is clunky and unnatural. I have to use a bare foot to be able to grasp it with my toes to massage it to go a decent speed without jerking into super speed. Trying to get it to maintain a comfortable speed is hard work. If you step on the pedal and remove your foot, and then try to step on it again again right away, the pedal fails to work at all if you haven't allowed the needle unit to stop. It can be super annoying.

The last complaint I will voice is the fact that I am having one heck of a time getting thread that agrees with the machine. Yes, I've cleaned the machine. Yes, I've oiled the machine. Yes, I've adjusted the tension up or down. Yes, I've changed needles...bought good thread...am using "Singer" products...sacrificed a goat and did a rain dance...but the thread is forever clumping around the top of the needle and snapping off. No matter what I do thus far, I can't seem to solve that problem.

All in all, I am frustrated with this machine. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. You know that saying "you get what you pay for"? Well, if only that were true in this case! I haven't even gotten what I paid for!

"disappointed customer" 2007-01-09
By E. Riollano (Buffalo, NY)
I Ordered singer sewing machine 7462 and recieved 7444. I contacted the retailer who informed me they did not have 7462 available and instead sent me the upgade. No matter how hard I tried, I could not see how 7444 was an upgrade to 7462.

"Breaks after a few months!" 2006-07-12
By
i've had this machine for about 7 months, and i've had tons of problems with birdnesting and the bobbin.the "auto-tension" feature is hardly automatic. the "auto" setting is only good for 2 layers of light- to moderate-weight fabrics. forget trying to sew boucle or more than 2 layers of denim with this machine. stick to broadcloth and thinner denims. of course, you can only sew these fabrics if the bobbin works.the bobbin cradle (where you lay the top-loading bobbin) broke yesterday afternoon, and now i've gotta buy a replacement. i was sewing two layers of boucle with mild thread, and the machine jammed. i thought, "well, that's normal for this machine," and went about un-jamming it. when i went back to sew, it did it again, something that hardly happens for another 10 minutes. after a disassembly of the bobbin area, i determined a piece on the bobbin cradle had broken off. "great," i thought, "now i need to buy a replacement cradle."this machine is not worth the money. if you want something that breaks, go with a lesser model and save some money. replacement parts aren't cheap on this, either, since it's a relatively new model. my '78 Singer tears through thicker fabrics with light and heavy threads like nobody's business, but this newer model breaks its own parts within 7 months of being set up. my advice: stay away from Model 7462.

"Reliable 4-Inch Cloth Cutting Machine" 2010-04-07
By Christopher Pearsall (Rhode Island)
Product works fairly well. I would recommend this product only when you are trying to cut multiple layers of fabric or similar textiles at one time. The less you try to cut the more bunching there is. Controlling the cloth for a straight cloth when there are only a few layers causes bunching and the cut is not straight the way you would like. I purchased this to help my wife so she would have less pain when cutting fabric for online sale due to severe carpal tunnel and hand pain. For the price she hasn't been able to use it much. It rolls over the surface and it does do the cutting but there is nothing to control the fabric being cut while you control the cutting machine. I think it should be emphasized more that this is a product more for cutting thick cloth projects. For thinner projects you can more easily control the fabric with a handheld rotary cutter and get a more accurate cut.

Machine is very straight forward in its use. Simple to operate and very sturdy. Has a very large table add on which makes it great for quilting. Machine operates extremely well with the Grace stitch regulator when used in a frame. It is very fast and has a nice stitch. Has a built in cone thread holder which makes it nice for machine quilting.

"Closest thing to an industrial machine." 2010-02-04
By Flannel Pajamas (CA, USA)
I bought this machine a few years ago because I couldn't resist the idea of a faster home machine. I still have my Bernina, (25 years old) that sews beautifully, But I have to admit that I LOVE sewing on this machine. It is fast and the stitches are solid. It also has the same features that I love on my Bernina, which is the leg lift, and easy set up. The threading is smooth, and downright flawless. Honestly, the price is fantastic if you consider what you have to pay for an industrial machine, or even a brand new Bernina. I find that I can do 80% of my sewing using a single stitch. I have to switch back to my Bernina for button holes and maybe special darning projects (which I rarely use). I've worked on vinyl, polyester chiffon, denim and lots of cotton. Stitches are so clean, I would trust this machine for decorative top stitching. I didn't really "need" this additional machine, but now that I have it, I would never give it up.

"Juki TL-98Q" 2008-07-31
By Mle J. Fraenkel (Paris, France)
I really love this machine. I got it about three weeks ago and I was so pleasantly surprised by it's performance. Yes, it only does a straight stitch but it does a perfect, powerful, clean straight stitch unlike any machine I have used--- aside from an industrial Juki, which is just not practical in my apartment. I thought my old Singer was great (and it is, i must say) but this machine has not jammed once, it performs perfectly and I could not be happier with it!! I highly recommend this to anyone who sews a lot or who works in the fashion industry but just doesn't have room for an industrial at home!!!

"So far, I love this machine" 2010-03-24
By Karielk (Western Washington)
I have been sewing since 1969 or so. I have done a lot of sewing, had a number of different machines. My last purchase was a Euro pro. It sews pretty well, but very hard to get parts. I wanted another machine so my daughters and I can sew together. Price was a factor, and I did a lot of investigating different machines and decided on this one. So far, I am well pleased. I have played around with the different feet and designs. I am very pleased with the button holes and how easy they are. (I can remember my first buttonholes many years ago)

I am a bit disappointed in how much plastic parts there are now. But I am seeing that on most the machines.

I am enjoying the feature to use the buttons on the machine for start/stop and speed control. I love the needle threader as well as the feature for the quick start bobbin. One thing I haven't tried yet is heavier fabric such as denim.

I would highly recommend this machine for beginners or intermediate users. A lot of machine for the price.

Next day--I cut off some jeans and hemmed them, and even with a 16 needle this machine wouldn't go through the doubled side seams of the jeans. A lot of machines I have used over the years had this problem as well. This is the only thing I have had trouble with so far. But it sewed the regular denim just fine.

"Side Cutter II Sewing Machine Foot Attachment" 2009-01-17
By L. Laster (OKC, OK USA)
This is a wonderful product for LIGHTWEIGHT sewing! I happen to use it on very sheer nylon for grooming smocks, so it converts my straight shanked Brother and Singer machines into sergers very easily. I know Singer has a heavier duty side cutter and plan to purchase it for future heavy weight sewing, but for now, this is the product that I will be using. You will need to read the instructions in order to get it to work the first time as I just expected it to go to work automatically. NOT! It's wonderful for the price for lightweight materials and I would recommend it for the hobby to advanced sewer who does not want to purchase a serger right away.

"Not what I expected" 2009-10-25
By Peppermint Pattie (Warner Robins, Ga)
This machine performs as advertized as far as power goes. It will breeze through thicker layers of fabric. The thing I do not like about it, is that critical parts are not metal, but plastic. The lever that raises the presser foot broke the first time I tested it out. When the needle clamp broke recently, I discovered that it is not metal either. C'mon...it is a commercial machine. What good is a powerful motor if the parts are plastic inside?

"a good starter machine" 2010-03-26
By Laura Sterner (midwest)
I've owned this machine for about 6 years now and have been surprised how well it has lasted. For a cheap little machine it sews really well and keeps on sewing.
Pros: Reliable and easy to use, does a remarkable range of things- straight stitch, zig-zag, darning, blind hem, buttonhole, and maybe a few more things I'm not thinking of right now.
Cons: It is slow, the speed is frustrating for me. The stitch lengths are preset and you get to choose one of three, ditto the zig-zag. Not adjustable anywhere for anything. No handle to carry it.
Overall a nice lightweight machine that works well. I'm teaching my daughters (ages 8 and 11) to sew with this machine, and they are enjoying it.

"TROUBLE WAITING TO HAPPEN!!!!!!!" 2009-07-09
By F. Phillips
This machine has a variety of problems, the maachine is making the bobin break and the tension happens very often.....It is slow and gets tangled very easily.Threading it is confusing. One day i was sewing along and the whole bobin holder just feel right apart. I do not recommend that u get this machine.If i could return it i would but of course it was broke so i was unable to return it.... it is not an easy starter machine and it would be really hard to teach yourself on!! Please listen to this comment i dont want to put all of you through as much trouble as i went through.

"A Reliable and Portable Machine" 2009-05-17
By K. Walkenhorst (Pittsburgh)
I received this machine as a gift 7 years ago, and have since sewed everything from cardboard, denim, upholstery fabrics, quilts, paper, etc on it, and it is still chugging along! It's wonderful because it's fairly lightweight and medium sized, so it's easy to transport. It's also very easy to learn on, I taught myself how to use it and had sewed very little previous to using this machine. It has three straight stitches and seven variations of zig-zag stitches, as well as settings for making a buttonhole; new machines have way more settings for different stitches, but I've learned to do a lot of creative things just with this amount. If you are a really serious sewer you may be interested in a fancier machine with more options, but this one is wonderful if you are okay with limited stitch options. Replacements for needles and the light bulb have been easy and inexpensive. I've recently been learning about how to reset the tension, and this has been the first time it's given me any issues. Read the whole manual before you begin using it, it will make you a better sewer and teach you how to take care of your machine so it lasts longer. I would definitely recommend this machine.

"Sturdy basic sewing machine, great for free quilting and mending" 2010-05-19
By Joanna Daneman (Middletown, DE USA)
The Janome Magnolia 7330 is a "beginner's" sewing machine, according to some sewing forums, but my feeling is that it really is a workhorse that does most things an average sewist or quilter wants to do, and while it doesn't have all the features of a very expensive model, it delivers sturdy performance and enough bells and whistles to make it my new favorite "go-to" machine.
What it looks like:
The Magnolia line is an affordable line of machines including sergers. The 7330 is the top of this line and competes with the Decor models (such as the 2010) and the Threadbanger TB30. It is larger than the Gems (used for schools and portability) and smaller and less feature-rich than the Memory Craft and higher Decor models. What this all means is that if you are looking for a basic machine that does everyday tasks and quilting, this is a good machine at the right price point. What you will need to decide is how many extras you need based on your sewing tasks. The machine has smooth lines--a sewing table with rounded edges covers the free arm and contains an accessory box. The machine is a warm white, and the front has a couple of flowers as decoration in yellow and pink. I like more serious-looking designs and even the goth style of the Threadbanger, but the Magnolia had some features that made me choose it over the TB-30. The weight is about 15 pounds and can be carried with a built-in top handle. No case comes with the Magnolia; you can choose to add a hard case top, but you also might use a padded tote if you go to sewing classes or events.
Features:
The best feature, and the one that had me choose the 7330 over the DC2010 was the auto start-stop. This is a way to sew without the foot pedal. I had started sewing and was sewing until recently with a knee-lever. The coordination of foot up and down while moving fabric if you are quilting is not as easy as either a knee-lever or no pedal or lever at all. It's one less movement to coordinate. To use the hands free, you choose a top speed with a speed push bar on the front, and press START. The machine ramps up to your chosen speed and you can move fabric (for freestyle quilting) or just pay attention to the fabric as the feed dogs move the piece through. There is a needle up-needle down button; it has memory meaning you can press needle-down and every time you stop, the needle remembers its start position (up or down.) For quilting, again, this is fabulous. If you are stitching a design, you can simply stop, have the needle drop down and you can pivot on the stitch. You can handle this by hand on any machine, even a treadle, but you have to REMEMBER to drop the needle before pivoting, The needle memory and foot-free operation were what I really wanted most, along with good buttonhole variation, so this made the 7330 a top contender. There is also a needle threader; handy if you wear bifocals. There are 30 decorative and utility stitches (the DC2010 has 50, including heirloom stitches, fyi.) There are six buttonholes including standard dense, keyhole, stretch (for knits), hand-stitch look (like hand buttonhole stitch), laddered and rounded. The buttonhole uses a button sensor; plug a button into the back of the buttonhole foot, drop down the sensor lever and the hole will be the right size for your button. One feature on the Magnolia that was NOT on the TB30 Threadbanger (which is quite similar in all other respects) is a darning stitch that uses the buttonhole foot. While you can drop the feed dogs in both machines and darn freehand, this quick mending feature decided me against the nice decorative stitches and easier front panel of the Threadbanger. The machine will punch through 4 to 6 layers of tee shirt material (I tried this) but I am not sure how well this will do on layers of denim, even with a sturdier needle. Generally, machines such as the Magnolia cannot handle multiple layers of heavy canvas or denim but I have a "gut" Elna that can pound through nearly anything.
Negatives:
Few accessory feet come with the 7330. Only a satin stitch foot, regular presser foot, a zipper foot and a buttonhole foot. If you need a stitch-in-the-ditch guide foot, a hemmer, ruffler, walking foot or other fancy foot (piping or cording foot, pintuck) you have to pony up extra. The button sewing feature was a bit difficult to use compared to my Elna 1010. You push a button under the satin foot (has a space underneath), direct the needle to the left hole while using the zigzag stitch, adjust stitch width to the right to hit the right hole and then zig on slow for about 10 stitches. I found it almost impossible to position a small shirt button that had a more rounded rim than a standard flat shirt button. An open-toe foot may solve this. There are no fancy heirloom stitches beyond the useful blanket stitch and herringbone and a pretty leaf, star and scallop or two. No ladder stitch or eyelet or Parisian stitch. If you like heirloom sewing on linens, you have to move up to the DC2010 and give up the foot-free stitching, or go to the next level of machine with better feed system and--pay fifty percent more.
Summary:
For free quilting, home mending and standard home garment and decorative sewing, the Magnolia 7330 has a lot of bang for the buck. It is almost indistinguishable from the slightly more expensive TB30, and has features that are absent from the bottom of the Decor line 2010. For the price point, this is a great machine for average sewing and the foot-free features make this more efficient and easy to use.

"Janome 7330 Magnolia Sewing Machine" 2010-03-22
By Rosie Matula (New Jersey)
Got this machine after reading several reviews on sewing machines just trying to pick one that I thought would be great for me. I've had brother and singer machines before but always had some problem develop fairly shortly after getting it. Such as tension problems, loud when sewing, inconsistent length of stitches when sewing. The machines are all manual so I decided to try a computerized machine. This machine is defintiely quieter, is easier to use with it's one button push to get the stitch you want, and the stitching so far is consistant and smooth in my simple mending projects. I'm giving this machine a 4 star only because I want to use it on a bigger project before giving it a perfect score.

"Great machine for beginner sewer or quilter" 2010-02-24
By Amanda J. (Santa Clara, CA USA)
I bought this machine after doing a lot of research and I'm so happy I did! I sewed in high school but now 10 years later, I wanted to get into quilting. At first I set my budget at $200 but quickly realized that machines in that price range were not dependable. I didn't want a machine that would be more trouble than it was worth. The features I wanted were needle down, adjustable speed, and start/stop button. This machine has all 3. If I had a bigger budget, I would love a knee-lift, adjustable foot pressure, and thread cutter, but that will have to be for my "some day" machine. If your budget is $300-400, this is the machine for you!

"Great sturdy workhorse" 2010-02-19
By Darkenmoon (Chicago, IL)
I received this for Christmas and I love it. I would say my sewing skill is about intermediate. I wanted a machine that would be good for where I am currently, grow with me some, but also be affordable. After much research, this was the one I wanted. My mom surprised me with it. This was an upgrade from an old Singer Touch and Sew 600e. This machine won't ever be as sturdy as that baby, but it's a really nice replacement... and at any rate, I don't think any machine you'd buy these days would be that sturdy. However, this machine is AWESOME. The bobbin was easy to wind. It is easy to thread. It has memory of your needle position. This thing doesn't take fiddling and is extremely easy to work with. I like to make things like clothing, purses, little things like bags and eye pillows. I do a lot with my sewing machine and ask a lot. This machine really pulls through and does what I want without complaint or worry. I love all the marks on both sides of the food and needle to guide your fabric. It makes it SO easy. The fabric feeds very easily. One thing I found weird to get used to is that when you first press the peddle, the first few stitches go quite slow and then it will go up to speed. It's weird, but as I continue with it, I find it is also quite useful. I love this machine. I cannot stress enough how much I love it. It's fairly quiet. It's easy to set up. It's easy to use with a distinct lack of needing to fiddle with it. It's easy to select stitches and size of stitches. I really love this machine. I can't say that enough.

"Love it!" 2010-02-17
By A. J. Van Hal (ND, USA)
I purchased the Janome 7330 Magnolia sewing machine a couple months ago based on customers' reviews...in particular, the first review here caught my attention...I'm an experienced sewer, and this is my third machine...I'm very happy with it...it's very easy to thread...after reading the instructions about the various settings/buttons, I found it easy to operate. The stitches are nice; I didn't have to adjust the tension or anything. It comes with basic attachments/accessories, and there are quite a few additional accessories that can be purchased separately like a ruffler, darning foot, etc.

"adjustable binder foot" 2009-11-09
By Clever Designs (California)
Handy accessory to have for binding anything. The instructions are minimal though. I had to research the internet to find out exactly how to use this particular binder. The adjustable screw is very hard to use as it's very tight and close to the plate of the machine once it's attached. I practiced a lot before using it on the final item I was sewing. Over all, I like it and am glad to have it.

I love it and also is easy to use ..but I wished there are a variety of feet And specify the feet that we use.. Thank you

"Wish I had bought a new one" 2010-06-06
By Patricia Denney (Cedar City Utah USA)
I love this machine. The little lettering you can embroider with it, the lovely fancy stitches. It is easy to thread and sews well and I bought mine refurbished for $149 and it was false economy. For refurbished read used. The table I got with mine did not fit, the cover was filthy, non of the extras were included, the quilting foot, the 1/4 inch foot, the walking foot, the quilting guide or the eyelet punch. I have bought the extra feet which pushes up the price to $199. Walmart is selling this same machine but under the model number of SQ9000 with the front a pretty pink instead of blue and for $199 plus tax which makes it around $210. Less than $20 more but I would have had a perfect brand new machine and registered with Brother. Never again will I buy a 'refurbished' model even though I did finally get a replacement table and I cleaned the filthy cover.

"love it!" 2010-05-25
By Poodle_Mama (Baltimore, MD)
I love this machine! Light weight and more stitches a novice sewer, like myself, will ever need.Now if i just had the time to try all the stitches and embroidery.

My only complaints are that it does not handle layers of fabric well, even with a denim needle. I found if I put it on the lowest sewing speed it does much better. But I still sometimes get the Error message. The monogramming function is less then what I expected. The letters are small and too boxy.

The computerized stitching makes changing stitches a snap,and I have actually changed stitches while sewing the same project with no problems.It even tells you what foot you should be using,and automatically sets the width, and length. Or you can do it manually.The tension has yet to be a problem, it is easy to adjust. And the auto needle threader is great,once you get the knack of using it.

The XR9000 is great for a beginner like myself. The price for a refurbished one was within my budget, but If you can afford a new one in the box, go for it.

I wanted an embroidery machine originally, but they are so pricey.With the embroidery foot ,purchased separately, and a little practice, I think I'll be OK! Maybe I'll be able afford the Project Runway machine one day, the XR9000 is all the machine I need right now.

"TERRIBLE!" 2010-04-19

I bought this machine from a different site in February and with the snow I got it in March. Well by the second week it stopped working. The bobbion thread gets all tangles and locks up the motor. I called Brother and they were ZERO help. The worst part is that the machine broke in the middle of makign a crib set for my niece who will be born before my replacement arrives

"A couple of issues...." 2010-04-15
By Montana Ro (NW Montana)
I loved this machine at first. It was smooth, quiet, and I love the speed control for applique.

My issues are:

Straight line sewing seems to be a slight problem. I have to fight a little to keep my fabrics feeding thru straight. It doesn't matter which feet I use, I change feet, thread, and needles according to what the manual says for whatever I'm sewing. If I wear my quilting gloves for regular straight sewing it's a little easier. But I never had to do that with my old machine.

My second issue is skipped stitches. This just started happening a couple of weeks ago, and I have done everything the manual suggested. I have cleaned the bobbin case (it was pretty dusty), I have made sure my needle is inserted properly and the machine is threaded properly. I make sure I have the right needle, foot, etc for what I'm sewing. It still skips stitches, even on my applique now.

Today I am going back to my old singer. I live in the boonies and it is a full day to drive to and from a place that can service my machine. I am going to call brother customer service and hope they will be able to help, but I do not want to pay expensive shipping or repair charges for an inexpensive machine like this. I may end up donating it to my trash can and buying the more expensive machine I wanted in the first place.

Bummer!

"Really Great Workhorse" 2009-11-09
By Lonia (VA)
I got this machine for Xmas last year after reading hundreds of reviews for different machines. I definitely wanted a manual sewing machine (after hearing/reading about lots of problems with the computerized), one could go through some heavy materials- particularly fleece, and wasn't horribly fussy to deal with. In general, it's easy to use and works really well. It's easy to thread normally (I can't figure out the automatic threader). Sometimes, as with most manuals, the needle will skip. You really need to listen for problems with the bobbin and stop as soon as you hear it. Sometimes the bobbin doesn't catch quite right and it gets itself tangled in the casing. If this happens, you'll have to really pull gently to get your project to move up enough to carefully cut the threads out. Not a huge deal, just something to be aware of. The only real complaint I have about it is the underpass under the arm is much too small to do any enormous projects (like a bedspread). If you buy the case with this, as I did, be aware that the case does not snuggly fit the machine and the machine can bounce around and some of the delicate metal parts on the top can bend. This happened once when I put it on the floor of my car to transport it to a friend's house to do some work. The piece bent back easy enough.

"A solid machine for home sewing" 2008-08-02
By Laurel (New York, New York)
Though the Brother XL-3510 wasn't my first choice in a machine (purchased out of a limited selection from an online retailer using a "store credit only" return policy, even for defective machines), after a marathon weekend of sewing medieval garb, I have found this to be a solid machine that handles a wide range of projects effectively and efficiently. With a drop in bobbin (SA156 is the Brother part number--same as their sewing/embroidery machines) that is oriented a little too much towards the right handed (I'm a left handed person), it's much easier to manage than the Europro I returned to the online retailer that uses a steel bobbin and bobbin case from the side. Threading is easy as well, though left handed people will have problems for a few times until you get used to the nuances of the threading. There are about 3 or 4 places that I found the machine difficult to manage as a left handed person. Sadly, as strong as Brother is, for both the industrial and home sewing markets, they have forgotten that both left handed and right handed people use the machines!! I really like the way the stitch selector dial works. Just like a shift key on a computer, you just put the outer dial on the red SS1 for the red row of stitches or the green SS2 for the green row of stitches--it's very user friendly. Normal stitches are neither red nor green--for things like straight or zig zag. Everyday stuff like back-stitching is easy (easier than many models) and the machine doen't balk at you when you want to go through a few thicknesses of fabric like pleats. As with any machine, you might have to coax it a little by a tug or two on a stubborn section through the feeders, but I've never known a machine that always could feed anything without a little help now and again. All in all, thie machine passes the test. It works very nicely and should be a great addition to anyone's sewing room. I'm not an expert seamstress, but I've sewn to some degree since I was six and used many many machines along the way. This machine was a good buy--but for the future I will ALWAYS READ THE FINE PRINT before buying ANY MACHINE--it really DOES MATTER WHO YOU BUY FROM AND WHAT THE RETURN POLICY IS. READ THE RETURN POLICY--EVERY WORD--BEFORE YOU BUY ANYTHING--THIS IS EXTRA IMPORTANT FOR SEWING MACHINES.
This is a great machine. I didn't buy mine on amazon. I really wish I did.
