Singer Stitch Sew Quick Handheld Sewing Machine Review

Singer Stitch Sew Quick Handheld Sewing Machine
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This "equipment" is a sham! Why in the world would singer produce something this awful is beyond me. If anyone out there sews you know this is awful. I spent too long trying to thread it! You can't respool the bobbin on it, the needle doesn't rise up so you can stick a cloth under it!, you're so busy trying to make it work, you sew your fingers in the process! In short, you can't sew with it! DO NOT BUY!!!

Average Reviews:

I ordered this machine because the one I had only did forward and reverse and zig-zag and I have had it for 20 years and it still works very well,It to is a Brother. I started doing applique quilting and needed a machine that had more stitches so I ordered this machine. It was everything I had expected and it was a good price at $60.00. I priced a new one and found it was over a hundred dollars. This machine would be perfect even for a beginner. It is easy to use and can handle alot of different materials. I would highly recomend this machine.

Household Essentials 1398 16-by-32-Inch Sewing Center Review

Household Essentials 1398 16-by-32-Inch Sewing Center
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I ordered this not really expecting much for such a low price. Was I ever mistaken!!
This makes any table top a sewing center. It is well padded with very clear markings. Keeps my machine from sliding while sewing and reduces noise. The pockets are convenient for placing items in while working on a project.
It folds and fits in my sewing machine carrying case for easy storage and to take along to sewing/craft classes.
I was using a foldable compact ironing board to protect my table tops and corian counter tops. I can now rid my self of this space taking setup.
This setup makes for an compact, lightweight setup that transports and stores easily.
Not only a terrific solution for the fulltime RV seamstress and crafter, but also would work well in dorm rooms and small apartments.

Jam-packed with an assortment of organizational options, this 16-by-32-inch sewing center makes a wonderful addition to any crafting room or creative workspace. The unit's padded muslin construction and non-slip silicone backing serve to dampen machine noise and prevent sewing machines from "walking" across the counter or table during operation, while its handy grid--printed at 1-inch increments--enables effortless measurements while cutting or hemming. Even more, its roomy surface area offers plenty of space for both a sewing machine and an iron, making it easy to pre-press seams, iron collars, affix sizing, and mount iron-on patches without making multiple trips across the room to use a freestanding ironing board. Additional highlights include three detachable pockets for bobbins, thread, elastic banding, and other small notions; two scissor holders for keeping pinking shears or fabric scissors nearby; and a small waste bag--all of which hang neatly over the edge of a table or desk for out-of-the-way convenience. An indispensible tool for both novice and professional tailors, the sewing center measures approximately 16 by 32 by 1/2 inches.

Average Reviews:

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.

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!

Portable Mini 2-speed Sewing Machine with 100 Piece Kit Review

Portable Mini 2-speed Sewing Machine with 100 Piece Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a great sewing machine which was surprising considering how mini the thing is. I would say its a good purchase for a beginner (gift idea for children?) or for someone with sewing experience that needs something portable (battery operated).
The only negative thing I can say is that it won't do really thick materials because it won't fit under the arm. But since I didn't expect that considering the cost, I won't let it affect the 5-star rating.

Providing perfect stitch control, this mini sewing machine comes in handy for anything from silk to denim. The machine's user-friendly design offers a top drop-in bobbin for easy threading, automatic thread rewind, a simple on/off control button, and an over-sized button for setting the speed from low to high. Choose either the hand switch or the included foot pedal to start. The unit makes a nice gift for any craft enthusiast, novice or on-the-go sewer, or college student with an eye for fashion. Comes with a bonus 100-piece Sewing Kit. The mini sewing machine uses DC 6-volt power and measures approximately 7-2/3 by 4-1/2 by 8-2/7 inches.

Factory-Reconditioned Singer 2263.RF Simple 23-Stitch Mechanical Sewing Machine Review

Factory-Reconditioned Singer 2263.RF Simple 23-Stitch Mechanical Sewing Machine
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Bottom line, DO NOT PURCHASE SINGER MACHINES!!! This was given as a gift and it jams ALL the time!! I've done every adjustment suggested by singer and from experienced users. All have said that the new singers have so many problems, especially with jamming. We have yet to sew anything since we opened up the box, just google singer 2263 problems and you'll see for yourself... At the end of the day they should rename the company to wannabe singer. Truth of the matter is Singer went bankrupt and sold the company. So it's NOT the old school respectable and well built Singer our parents and grandparents grew up with. Below are some of the reviews on Walmarts site...
"this machine sews fine for about 3 inches until ALL OF A SUDDEN the fabric balls up underneath the fabric and the machine completely stops. I've tried pretty much everything and can't figure out how to make it work. i think it's the tension... but i thought this was a machine for BEGINNERS! i think it just wasn't built right because you can tell from looking at it that the parts don't align quite right.
this is NOT a machine for beginners... but from reading other reviews, it seems like even expert seamstresses can't fix the problem!"
"I bought this as a beginner sweing machine to learn to make a few summer dresses for my daughter. It worked fine the first day, and since then I have had nothing but problems. I have spent 2 days on this stupid machine trying to fix the tension and nothing works. PIECE.OF.JUNK. I wish I would have read the reviews first before impulse buying this Singer. If I could give this machine negative stars, I would. Now... To package it up and TAKE IT BACK!"
"UNBELIEVABLE!!
It looked good in the store and I have used Singer machines since the 1950s! I sew a lot and was trained by a master seamstress.
This machine tangled the threads and jammed within 2 hours out of the box. I had read the manual cover-to-cover and used the "trouble-shooting" page to try to fix it. then I thought, "WHY?!!" It wouldn't sew straight any more and had threads balled up under the fabric. Yuck! It is going back this afternoon!"
...and the comment continue on the link below

DO NOT BUY!!

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?

Easy Stitchers Table Top Sewing Machine Review

Average Reviews:

I can't even get this machine to work. It doesn't stay threaded for more than one second at a time. My mother (a veteran seamstress) tells me that it's because the material I'm trying to use (cotton jersey) is too difficult for the machine to work with. As it is the only material I was planning to use, I will be returning the machine.
