I just purchased this machine. The big question is how it handles denim, as I do a lot of altering to my jeans (taking in side seams, hems, etc.) Can anyone tell me what is the best stitch length and tension for heavier fabrics? Anybody have any trouble with this machine sewing easily through several layers of denim??

My story:
It was coming down the last couple weeks of school (Fashion Design Major) and I had 4 garments to finish and out of the blue my sewing machine broke! What was a girl with a deadline to do? Come on Amazon.com of course! Whenever I need a review I always come on here so I hunted down this here Singer Confidence. I have previously seen this on the Martha Stewart show and thought yeah.. probably too good to be true but nope! All the reviews on here gave me the green light to purchase it in a local fabric store and I couldn't have been happier about it!
This machine is incredible. I've sewed on industrial sewing machines and thought nothing could come close to the feel and smoothness that industrials have but this has proved my lil sewing heart wrong!
Once I took it out of the box I whipped out a slab of muslin to test out all the different stitches! They were all beautiful, easy easy easy to do and wow I really love the back-tack button! The buttonhole/buttons feature is really great and simple to use. I love how quick and easy winding/changing the bobbin is. I have nothing but great things to say about this machine! No cons whatsoever!
The main thing that is a highlight for me is that I was able to open this up and use it instantly without having to read the entire manual. I wound my bobbin, set my stitching length and off I went! It was such a relief to have done that because I had absolutely no time to waste!
I genuinely feel like anyone, extremely beginner or exceptionally advanced would LOVE this machine because bottom line it is an absolute dream to use. Very simple, great quality, great PRICE!, wonderful instructions if you need them, easy easy easy! easy! Just had to throw that last easy in there for good measure! :)
So long story short, I finished all my dresses for my final for school without any problems whatsoever. *Shimmy shakes*
So if you need a sewing machine that promises quality and truly give you confidence, this is the way to go.
Happy sewing!!!!!

I was sooo frustrated with my Singer Simple constantly jamming and having bobbin issues I almost gave up sewing. After about a year of off and on, I bought this on a black Friday sale for $199 at JoAnn's. LOVE IT! Just drop in the bobbin. I've done several projects, including sewing apparel and quilting, and it has never, ever jammed. I have had thread break once after almost doing a whole quilt (Coats thread) and never w/Gutermann.
I LOVE THIS MACHINE! It really did give me confidence, as I know the problem was not all me. Very quiet, smooth, and steady.

It works great NOW. I purchased this machine last month and had similar issues with the straight stitching. I had changed the foot from the original one that was on it. I had never seen a closed foot like that before so I put on the one I was familiar with that came with the accessories. I tried everything to get the stitches right, including changing the machine's needle, increasing the tension, decreasing the tension, and rethreading the machine. When I was just about to give up and throw it out the window, I put the original foot back on. That did the trick! It works fine now, and I have used stitches I've never used before, like the scallop stitch to decoratively hem a sundress and the overcast seam stitch which looks professional! I have been sewing on Singer machines for 42 years and was very hesitant to purchase one of these "new fangled" computerized models. Lots of plastic, but lots of fun! I'm enjoying playing with all the stitches! I will never give up my 30 year old machine and since I started giving sewing lessons to my daughter and her friend, now they can sew together. I would definitely recommend this machine - great price for great quality.

I purchased this product thru Amazon, since my local retailers carry only the low end sewing machines, which didn't seem to fare well in the product reviews I found online. Previously, I had been using a Singer Touch and Sew Model 775 purchased over 30 years ago and it has seen a lot of duty. There are also no repair centers close by, so when my old machine developed multiple problems, I decided to buy a basic machine that could straight sew, zigzag, and make easy buttonholes - but not the bottom of the line machines. I couldn't find a lot of reviews on the model 7467, but the ones I did find were positive, so this seemed like a good fit eventhough I wasn't interested in all the fancy stitches. Unfornately, the machine performed well only on zigzag - the straight stitch was horrible. I tried various needles, threads, and tension settings, but once I had tried sewing a little heavier weight fabric, I couldn't get a quality straight stitch regardless of the adjustments. I returned the machine to the vendor, who promptly refunded my money - but it was a $55 expense with return shipping, insurance and restocking. I know they don't make them like they used to, but this machine was a piece of junk. The vendor said this is the first complaint he had on this model, so maybe mine was just a lemon.

- Stitches are optimally set for length & width but you can adjust as needed
