SINGER Heavy Duty Serger HD0450S with Accessories, 2-3-4 Thread Capability, 1300 stitches/min, 60% larger cutting knife, Metal Frame & LED Lights

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am obsessed with this sewing machine! It makes it so easy to stitch the clothing and even easy to carry around with the handle that comes on the machine!

I never worked with a serger. This is my first one. I was scared about threading it. After checking the online manual and watching some videos on YouTube, I was able to thread it correctly and it works very well now. This serger is not noisy at all. It works smoothly. I still have to learn how to use different stitches styles. But so far it is amazing me.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I am very satisfied with my overlock machine. I had no prior experience with this type of machine and found it very easy to use. I still have a bit of difficulty getting it to operate at the lower speed. Since I lack experience, I still can't position the fabric so that the seam ends up exactly where I want it. It would be good if there were a way to activate some sort of low-speed switch. Other than that, the machine is quite sturdy and works very well with both thin and thick fabrics, as well as knit. I wholeheartedly recommend this machine.

This is a great machine and an excellent brand as a gift to my wife, so good, that I got two kinds of the same brand. As a kid, my mother has them on her business, and still do use the brand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a heavy duty sewing machine but takes up very little space. I used cotton threads because it is what I had readily available. The machine was very easy to set up and the instructions on the machine are color coded to make sure each thread is in the correct place. My first attempt was successful although I did have to play around a with the dials to get it where I needed it. I would highly recommend this to experienced and beginners.

I've been using this pretty regular since I purchased it a few months ago. It's nice, has some good options. I like that they didn't send a manual because honestly I look up my solutions online anyway. What I miss from my old babylock machine though is it had a shortcut tool that helped you thread the threads and this new singer doesn't

Do not like the fact that good customer service is not important to anyone any more manuals should come with a product. Singer of all businesses should know that. Another problem I have with it is the free arm is very hard to get to, the button to push to take it off seems to be backwards or something. Other than that it is ok.

Difficult to use. Needs better instructions on threading.

They make it heavy so you think it's quality, but then they DO NOT even include an instruction manual rendering this into nothing, but a poorly shaped boat anchor. Look I'll be honest, I don't understand the picture instructions on the machine itself, I'm a learn-by-reading kind of guy and on top of it I don't own a computer or tablet, so trying to read all 166 pages of the PDF manual on a 2.75"x6" phone screen even zooming in is almost more torturous than trying to figure this hunk of garbage out. Does it make good stitches? No idea. Ease of use? Can't even start. Does it do nice seams? Couldn't tell you. What I can tell you is Singer likes to print a little flyer in 97 different languages talking about how one stitch doesn't make clothing but a whole chain of stitches makes a piece of art or whatever, and you are just one stitch in their plan to help save the planet by not including an instruction manual. so don't expect if you're a first-time owner of one of these even if you've used them at a friend's house or a family members house before, do not expect to purchase it and to be able to use it. so far I've only been able to find one YouTube short that kind of shows you what to do, and even in that the guy says this particular machine is insanely hard to get threaded in the first place.

I returned it because it was too complicated to thread. I don't have time to spend an hour trying to thread it every time. I usually like singer products but not this one. I also couldn't get the tension adjusted and I've used a serger for 50 years so I know what I was doing.
