Singer Long Life Light Bulb 10 Watt-120 Volt-Screw-In Base Review

Singer Long Life Light Bulb 10 Watt-120 Volt-Screw-In Base
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Button Magic just does not do as good a job as a needle and thread do. The plastic fasteners break and the buttons are very loose--one good yank (or an accidental catch on something) and the button comes out, often breaking the plastic "T" ends. Plus, the "T"s need to be pushed through the button holes, often requiring small pliers which can mangle/flatten the "T" tips. Better to just learn how to sew a button on, I say (type)!

This is a very poorly made product. I bought these snaps from Joann Fabrics and ended up discarding over half of them because they did not snap together. The posts were too small for the holes. And the ones that did snap together were loose-fitting.

Mighty Mendit Review

Mighty Mendit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I used this product to glue down some vinyl tile that would not stick, glued together loose ends of some strip insulation, and repaired an old wood toy. This glue did the job. I found it easy to use. You have to press with some force to get the glue out of the bottle, but the closure does keep the glue from sealing itself up, so the product stays fresh. The glue comes out in a thin stream, easy to work with, just be patient.

SewPro SP-402 QuickStitch Sewing Machine Review

SewPro SP-402 QuickStitch Sewing Machine
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
After considerable research, we decided to get this sewing machine for our 9-year old daughter. We feel this is the best low-cost sewing machine for the money. Although many of the components are plastic, the machine is sturdy and well made. It includes a foot-pedal, does not require batteries, and closely resembles the basic features and shape of a traditional $100+ sewing machine. I only give this item four stars because there is no light.
After helping our daughter select the proper thread and tension adjustment, she has made several hats, skirts, and so on. We have also found that no matter how cheap or expensive a sewing machine is, there are going to be problems if it is your first time at sewing. Many people don't realize that there is a fair amount of knowledge and skill required to make ANY sewing machine stitch properly. If you can't get your sewing machine to stitch properly it is most likely tension setting, thread selection, etc..

Hope this helps !

This product doesn't even deserve one star! I bought this for something simple and easy...what a BIG MISTAKE!! It's more trouble than it is worth! The hems don't hold up, it's a pain to finish a hem so it doesn't unthread on me, it's hard to control any real direction AND did I mention that it just plain SUCKS? I feel like I am all thumbs while trying to use it. It's now in the dumpster because I wouldn't even GIVE it away!!! Coming from the name Singer, I was a bit surprised of the bad quality :((

This machine does not work. I will be returning it to find a better "first" machine for my daughter. The stitiches do not hold, every instruction was followed to the letter. It is not worth even 4 cents, much less 14 dollars. I would have paid more for something that acutally works. I'll keep looking
