SINGER® C5980Q Patchwork™ Plus Sewing Machine | 417 Stitch Applications | Built-In Lettering, Extension Table, Quilting & Sewing Ready

I use my machine daily! It is portable if I need to take it to my quilting group. It's VERY user friendly even for beginners. I have recommended it to fellow quilters looking for a new machine. I especially love the fancy stitches I can use for my quilt borders and hem. Great value for the price. No complaints. I love sewing on this machine.

So I love this machine! I had bought a bigger one Originally, and it had gotten cracked during delivery. So I returned it. I am so happy that I ended up with this one! Lighter weight and smaller and simple. I stepped up from a plain heavy duty one .

My sewing machine was only 6 months old (different Singer model) and my dog ran under my table and sent it sailing to the concrete floor, destroying the lower bobbin area and it didn't make sense to repair it compared to what it cost me to buy it. Someone I follow online recommends and uses this sewing machine for her sewing students so I thought I would try it. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this sewing machine so much!! It is so smooth and has the most consistent stitches! It is so easy to use and I can't wait to keep using it. And I'm no longer mad at my dog 😏

Love being able to have needle go down while chain stitching quilt pieces. Wish reverse button was the lowest. Don't need the two pull out plastics of switch on the bottom.

II'm very pleased with this machine. Although I didn't know that they no longer come with a printed manual. I am having a lot of triouble with Singer to obtain a pdf manual for downloading ! There are features that I can not accomplish without some information.

I love the ease of bobbin winding, the machine is quite and does not move all over my sewing station. I do have to adjust thread tension due to the fabrics I'm using. I love this machine

I just started using my sewing machine and it amazing! I haven't done much on it yet but learning to use it will come slowly.. I will give another review in 30 days.

The only thing I dislike about my machine is the lack of space when you remove the front piece that holds all the presser feet storage. Once you have clips on your fabric you can't rotate your project without the clips getting stuck due to no room to rotate your project around and sew. My moms Brother machine has tons of room to rotate my project around without popping the clips off. The taupe base gets in the way. I wish I would have researched better and also seen the model that has the thread cutting button. I probably should have returned it, but I didn't want to deal with sending it back.

I bought this machine a couple of weeks ago. It is well made and sturdy. So far it works pretty well. This is not a complete review as I have not been able to test all the functions and different stitches. It would be nice if the manual for this machine model was readily available. The cloth cover that comes with the machine is really flimsy and is soo big and loose in covering the machine. There is no cover for the extension table. It would have been nice if it came with the canvas cover like the patchwork 7285Q that covers both the machine and has a pouch where you can store the extension table. As this machine is also for quilting, a lot of thread is required. It would have been great to make the spool pin have the ability to accommodate the big quilting thread spools. I tried to put one on and it did not work out well ans it kept getting caught on the plastic. Despite these few things, I give it 4 stars. It is a work in progress and I will continue to learn this machine and give it more of a chance.

Good features. Multiple stitches. Lots of plastic. Not for heavy duty quilting.
