Singer Button Magic Review

Not sure what happened to the previous buyers unit but the one I have is awesome! I am a wholesaler and rec'd a few of these in stock so I opened one and kept for myself. Literally turns garments back to looking gorgeous! If you read the previous buyers comment you'll see that this is the second one she bought. Evidentally she liked it enough to buy it again except the second one she bought was evidentally from a terrible seller. I will say that the units are delicate so don't drop them or use them until they clog up so bad you can't unclog them. Having said all this, I really love this little slice of heaven.

BRATZ (REAL) Designed Sewing Machine Review

BRATZ (REAL) Designed Sewing Machine
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My daughter received this from her aunt. We followed the directions included in the package and found several problems with the item. (1) Once the machine is threaded (according to the directions) the thread feels so tight that it threatens breaking when you pull it through the needle... (2) The foot pedal pulls the fabric through the machine backwards.....(3) There seems to be nothing in the bottom portion of the machine which catches the thread to make a complete seam, in other words...the needle pulls the thread in and out of the fabric without leaving any thread connected to the fabric.
I am completely frustrated with this product and would love to hear that I am just using it incorrectly or that I have a malfunctioning machine. My daughter was VERY disappointed since she had looked so forward to "really" sewing on her own. Has anyone else had any experience with this product?

Musical - 4½ Inch Antique Portable Sewing Machine 'Buttons & Bows' Review

Musical - 4½ Inch Antique Portable Sewing Machine 'Buttons and Bows'
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this for my wife who is an avid seamstress. It turned out to be a nice little item that is exactly as described here. It plays a nice tune, Buttons and Bows, and has a semi-operating sewing machine that turns along with the tune. I did notice that the workmanship left a little to be desired. There were some minor scratches on the sewing machine and some of the screws that retain the music maker were over tightened and left an indentation in the wood. Not enough to really detract from the overall impression, but noticeable. Overall I give it four stars - a nice item, almost heirloom quality but for workmanship issues. Interestingly, the provider would not ship the item until I let them know that it was a music box and not a working sewing machine! Whatever! I like it. My wife likes it. You will like it too.

I bought this for my daughter who wanted to learn how to sew. It's ok for this purpose, but don't count on it for great sewing. The speed is very slow, the pedal is cheap plastic and can break easily. The size is easy to handle for quick-fix sewing. The bobbin case is flimsy and comes dislodged easily.

Sew Crafty Mini Sewing Machine: White Review

Sew Crafty Mini Sewing Machine: White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I should have known better when I found it on the shelf for $3.99. But I thought "What the heck, if it doesn't work I'm just out 4 bucks." I just wanted something small to add flair to my craft projects. First of all, I'm a beginner when it comes to sewing, but I'm a reasonably intelligent person and the instructions were worthless. The "thread rod" is about 1 inch too long and doesn't hold the bobbin tightly. The handwheel, which is supposed to raise the needle, lowers it. Nothing short of just brute force would raise that needle in order to thread it. And if you have sewn before, you know where this is leading. Since the needle wouldn't raise, once I lowered it and tried to actually sew something (after about 1/2 hour of trying to thread it) it just made one hole over and over again because the needle couldn't clear the paper. At this point, I removed my 4 double A batteries (because they are worth more than the machine) and tossed it in the trash. Not worth the box it was packaged in!

Brother LS 30 Sewing Machine (Refurb) Review

I for once had no prior sewing teachings. I quickly learned to use this machine and it has made many beautiful projects. I recommend the Brother LS-30 to anyone wanting to learn to sew. Easy to thread, although it's reburbish I have no complaints.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Brother LS 30 Sewing Machine (Refurb)

Stitch to your heart's content with this Brother sewing machine. LS-30 full-size sewing machine has 22 stitch functions to satisfy your every stitching need. Sewing machine is easy to use and loaded with features. Built-in free arm for sewing cuffs and sleeves Super easy bobbin winding system. 3 needle position selector. Built-in sewing light. Stitch length dial. Built-in accessory storage. Includes instruction book and foot pedal. 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!

This is an amazing little machine. The price was incredibly low. It really works and sews an excellent seam. My only complaint is that the light didn't work or it would have gotten 5 stars. The reviews I read indicated that the light didn't help much, so maybe I'm not missing too much. I bought it for my granddaughter (6 years old) so she could sew while I use my big machine, but plan to use it for minor seam mending instead of pulling out my big machine.

Kenmore Mini Ultra 3/4 Size Sewing Machine with 6 Stitches Plus Buttonhole Review

Kenmore Mini Ultra 3/4 Size Sewing Machine with 6 Stitches Plus Buttonhole
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
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.

I haven't used a sewing machine since I was 7..so naturally i was a little nervous about buying anything overly expensive or intricate. I am mostly just doing clothing touchups-resewing seems on my boyfriends pants. It's easily stored. The directions on setup were mostly clear. the b/w text was a little hard to read. All and all I am very happy with this product. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good machine thats easy to use.

Machine works as advertised. Definitely designed for light weight sewing jobs only as needle will get stuck on thicker garments. Repaired a couple of pants with no problem. The biggest challenge is the base threading. Have to jiggle the base bobbin a little before the base thread was being picked up. Also make sure you turn the handwheel following the arrow on the side for the uptake of the base thread.

Average Reviews:

I purchased this machine a few weeks ago and while using it the thread started bunching and getting caught in the bobbin area, I unjammed and checked the tension, it would work for about 1/2 the side of one pant leg and then get bunched again. I have taken the bobbin feeder area apart checked the tension read the VERY SHORT manual that doesnt give you much help...and tried basically everything I can think of including changing the needle...still keeps doing it!! ... oh yeah and the bobbin winder worked once and now it doesnt ever switch the power from the sewing part to the winding the bobbin when you slide the winder over.. so the needle goes up and down and the bobbin stays perfectly still!! ..if anyone has any clues about how to fix these issues please let me know

Worked fine until it needed to be re-threaded. The machine worked fine when it came out of the box, but we could not get it re-threaded despite having two sewing experts looks at it.
