Dritz Jean-A-Ma-Jig Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This item is an incredible one for using when sewing over a large hem or multiple layers of fabric. You simply life the presser foot right before you go over the hem, slip the Jean-A-Ma-Jig under the foot and push it up next to the hem. Then, you lower the foot, and sew away. It keeps the needle from bending while going over the fabric and you will avoid so many broken needles.

Pencil Point Protectors Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was disappointed to discover that the points of my regular pencils sharpened with a regular electric sharpener completely stick out of the end holes of these gadgets. They will work, however with the shorter points created by using the little hand-sharpener (which artists often do), or if your pencil is a bit thicker. Not the best design.

Factory-Reconditioned Singer 2517 Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This Singer is no good. I have attempted sewing with this several times, and have unfortunaly been able to make only ONE successful line of stiching. I have played around with this so many times thinking that "maybe this time it will work" but it hasn't. I tried contacting Singer and got back a standard email that did not have anything to do with my question. Also, the instruction book that claims to be easy to read, explains things in a difficult manner, and the pictures that go along with it are no help. Therefore, I give up, and am taking it back.

Capable of 17 stitch functions this Singer machine is simple to operate and makes it possible for even novices to enjoy creative sewing. Some of the convenience features include a top drop-in bobbin that's easy-in, easy-out; a easy threading system with automatic needle-thread tension; an electronically controlled foot pedal for smoothly maintaining or changing speeds; touch-and-wind handwheel declutching for fast, easy bobbin winding; push-button reverse sewing for neat seam-ends; and a three-needle position selector for attaching zippers and top stitching. The machine is quiet and ruggedly built, includes a sewing light and a built-in carrying handle, provides horizontal thread delivery for better stitches, and has a slide-off extension table for free-arm sewing. Real excitement comes from the 17 stitch functions provided, including, for example, embroidering, monogram, satin, and darning. A complete accessory package (various presser feet, friction-free spool holders, transparent bobbins, and needles for sewing different fabrics) is included. Invaluable is Singer's illustrated, step-by-step instruction booklet covering everything from the basics to zipper sewing to pattern stitching to free-arm sewing to highly detailed buttonhole sewing--and much, much more.Included accessories:Instruction manual (English, Spanish, French), pack of needles, 4 bobbins, feed cover, 2 spool caps, standard pressure foot and a box to keep accessories in.

White W-100 Mighty Mender Lightweight Portable Compact Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)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.

(More customer reviews)It worked, but not very well. I bought this to teach my grandaughter how to sew and in a year a two I was going to give it to her. But I had to send it back. The thread kept breaking and it was hard to thread. Also, it kept jamming up. It really wasn't a very good performing machine and very frustrating to use. No, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Sorry.

Brother XL3500T 73 Stitch Function Free Arm Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love this machine. Brother has made a solid, well built machine. It is mostly plastic on the body, but feels well built and sturdy. It is heavy feeling and doesnt feel cheap at all.
Threading it to start with was super simple but the automatic needle threader took some getting used to because I'd never seen one before. Now, that I have gotten use to it though, I can thread the sewing machine, start to finish in 10-15 seconds. Amazing.
I really love the drop in bobbin. It has a little plastic window so you can see the bobbin, use the plastic bobbins as well and you can keep an eye on your bobbin thead levels easily. Using metal bobbins blocks the view of the thread, but that is no fault of the machines.
Plenty of stitch options are included. Numerous bits and pieces are included but I have yet to need them. I use the extension Table extensively as I am a quilter and it comes loose pretty easily, unfortanately.
But all in all, that is my only real complaint. It runs quietly and pretty damn fast for my taste.
Highly Recommended!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Singer 57817 17 Stitch Function and Electronic Speed Control Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had this machine for years! I paid a lot more for it than Amazon is offering. So the price is just not an issue here. The main advantage of this machine is 1) It is Singer (the name says it all); 2) It has an automatic thread tension control (an invaluable feature for novices!); 3) It has 17 stitches (even the one for sewing on buttons, embroidery, and monogram); 4) It is very easy to operate, as a very detailed and easy to comprehend user manual is included; and 5) It is light-weight, compared to those bulky Kenmore and Bernina machines, it is is just a baby!
I would definitely recommend this machine to novices (especially for such a price) it is easy and cute, too.

Singer 7466 Electronic Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Love this! Sews beautifully, lots of great stitches, very easy to switch out the pressure foot. Only drawback I've found was the bobbin cover is easy to misplace. It pops off completely to put on a new bobbin. But I've just made of habit of putting it in the same spot when changing bobbins so I won't lose it. I really like the little cubby hole storage box on the front to store the extra feet. Very nice machine, and I'm very happy with it.

The Singer model 7466 is a fully electronic sewing machine. It has a full range of utility, decorative, quilting, heirloom and stretch stitches.

Factory-Reconditioned Singer 2662 62-Stitch-Function Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought a brand new Singer 2662 (not a factory re conditioned one). This was the only Singer 2662 I could find here. Anyhow, excellent machine; stitches easily; $158 at Wal-Mart; easy to use; easy to load bobbin; easy to thread; quiet; easy to operate; easy to select stitches; upholds it reputable name-Singer. This is the easiest machine you will ever use. I also have a Viking Husqvarna 6460 and this Singer is 1000 times easier!!!

Click Here to see more reviews about: Factory-Reconditioned Singer 2662 62-Stitch-Function Sewing Machine

The Singer Model 2662 is a 62-stitch function machine with many features to make your sewing projects so easy. With a 1-step buttonhole you will be able to make a whole row of identical buttonholes quickly. Two extra special features on the 2662 is the adjustable needle placement so that you can get your line of stitching exactly where you want it and the ability to lower the feed dogs (this prevents the machine from feeding the fabric through the sewing area giving you full control of stitch placement especially useful for creative stitching). The machine also features an automatic needle threader; a top drop in bobbin and easy bobbin winder; adjustable presser foot pressure (useful for heavier fabrics); a free arm; horizontal threading for smoother stitching; and adjustable stitch density (especially helpful for use on buttonholes on light or heavy weight fabrics). With the machine comes an instruction manual (in English, French, and Spanish) to show you how to get the most from your machine. The 62-stitch functions include everything from basic construction (straight stitching, stretch stitching, elastic application) to a little more advanced construction stitches (different overedge stitches, blind hem, button sewing) to several decorative stitches (crescent stitch, feather stitch, applique, monogramming). The machine also has a compartment for storing the accessories and there are a lot of accessories! You will receive a pack of needles, 4 bobbins, standard presser foot, buttonhole foot, zipper foot, rolled hem foot, blind hem foot, satin stitch foot, overcast foot, dust cover, small bottle of oil, 2 spool caps, 2 screwdrivers, seam ripper/lint brush. There is a limited 1 year warranty on Singer reconditioned sewing machines. For further assistance with your machine, you can contact Singer's Consumer Affairs Department at 1-800-474-6437 Monday - Friday, 8:00am - 4:00pm CST.

Brother XL3510 72-Stitch Function Free-Arm Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)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.

Singer Tradition 2250 Portable Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My wife needed a simple basic sewing machine to repair and make adjustments to our clothes. We decided on this model based on the low price and the Singer name. As we understand there are more Singer machines in service than all other brands together.
We found the DVD that came with the machine very helpful and between that and the owner's manual the setup was easy. Since then she is using it from time to time and, as it fulfills all our needs at an affordable price, we must give it a high rating.
We would have hated to pay more for a sewing machine with more features that we were not going to use. This is a good reliable machine that fulfills our need for simplicity and ease of operation.

Singer 7463 Confidence 30-Stitch Electronic Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The first one I got was in Jan '09. It lasted me until June, and I started having a lot of problems with it. It started making terrible noises, sounded awful, wouldn't sew straight, stitches were inconsistent, tension was messing up intermittently I had to stop using it for vacation, got back and it was worse than ever. I sent it in for service (it took 3 weeks) and they sent it back saying they had adjusted the tension and found nothing wrong. It worked quietly for about 10 minutes, and then started freaking out again. I took it back and they swapped it out for a new one . The new one started having problems with feeding the fabric and rattling by the second day. The pressure on the presser foot was off, and there was no way of adjusting it. No way to lower the feed dogs either. I ended up returning it for a refund.
I was really disappointed with the quality of this machine. I wanted it to work well, and it did... briefly. It seems Singer has really lowered the bar with their quality standards.

Brother XR-65T Sewing Machine With Quilting Table Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have never had so much trou ble with a sewing machine. To begin with, i cannot get the bobbin to wind smoothly if the bobbin thread doesnt wind smoothly you will encounter jams Also the handle of the machine sits over the thread spool It has a drop in bobbin which i love, but it is hard to thread it and keep it in place. It has a see through cover, a cheap piece of plastic that came off and was instantly lost! It is too lightweight and can fall over while you are sewing i am used to being able to open the front of the machine (where you thread it) but you have to get a screw driver to open it. Thus to clean it of lint etc you have to stop everything. maybe these have been discontinued..if so you can see why
