Singer 7640 Confidence 200-stitch Sewing Machine

I have had this machine for a month now and am very pleased. I have sewn medium weight cotton and thin knits with no problems.

I haven't had any problems with it at all. I am 100% satisfied and would recommend it to anyone interested in a nice machine, yet still affordable.

According to my sister, is the best machine of its type. With its versatile array of jobs make it the best she has ever seen for the price.

I hem, make repairs and embellish. My old sewing machine was purchased in 1969 for Mother's Day at Sears. It was a Kenmore. I spent many happy hours with that machine. Sewing for my daughter, myself and making pants for my son in parochial school. However after 50 years of loyalty and many happy hours creating it said uncle. I am one who services my machine regularly (probably why it lasted so long) . At 70 I may not get another 50 years personally, but I am hopeful my family will. I learned first to see on a treadle Singer sewing machine that belonged to my Nana. So Singer was my very first choice.

I'm impressed with this sewing machine. I actually was looking for a Brother Brand but at pandemic time, this was the only machine that I could find that met my needs. I had two machines at home but neither worked. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Having been used to a 30 year old Kenmore, repeated jams and broken needles, I found sewing a dreaded chore. My new Confidence 7640 is a pleasure to sew with. It automatically adapts to different thicknesses and has many computerized stitches that were not available to me on my old machine. The accessories make sewing buttonholes and zippers much easier. I have only used it a couple times since receiving it a few weeks ago and look forward to sewing more in the future. There are several videos on You-Tube that help walk you through the basics. The only inconvenience I found is the machine does not come with a manual - you need to go to the website to download or print a PDF.

I haven't had my new sewing machine long enough to rate it. I am learning to sew on a completely different machine (computerized machine) than what I am used to. I think I am going to like sewing with this machine once I get used to the bells and whistles on it.

This product is easy to use and wonderful the only issue i have is the jack where the foot pedal connector is does not make good contact. The foot pedal doesn't work good. Sometimes i have to fight it. This happened within the first 24 hours of having the machine. I did not contact customer service to replace bc of covid-19 it would have taken me even longer to get my machine. Its also probably sold out. I was very limited on choices.

I received this as a gift from my daughter in law. The machine worked beautifully for the first week but unfortunately the bobbin is set to lie flat underneath the tray, and it pops out of place easily. I couldn't reset it as the plate is screwed in and my arthritis prevents me from manipulating the screwdriver necessary to unscrew the plate. It seems ridiculous to me that it isn't easily teachable. I want to return the machine and my daughter in law has tried to contact Singer for a week straight now via email, phone and Twitter with no luck due to Covid 19. I put the machine back in the box now that I can't use it at all. I was really looking forward to sewing masks for my loved ones and using my machine for other projects during the lockdown. I'm in Florida and my family is in New York so no one can help me fix this.

I am Not Happy the bobbin keeps popping out and the thread breaking, I am trying to make masks for my grand daughter she is an RN machine is junk Not Happy
