Review by CAROLYN W
First the cons...would really have liked a proper manual from the stat rather than printing the online one and binding it with string! Not impressed with the build of the pedal,far flimsier than my 1970,s singer which I've just replaced and it's hard to sew slowly using a straight stitch. Now the pros... much easier to use than my old ones and so many universal attatchments can be used instead of the branded ones. A good range of stiches that are easily selected,can't imagine needing any more for my dressmaking. The build is solid and compares well to other modern machines ,though I've get to test heavyweight fabrics. For the price point it's a good buy and I will enjoy using it but in hindsight,having seen the Bernette academy with more accessories and extension table and the speed modifier I may wish I'd spent the extra and bought that. Time will tell.

I bought the Singer heavy duty 6335m as an upgrade from my M2405, as I have started to sew more clothes, especially jeans, and curtains, and my old machine couldn't handle the thicker materials. I'm really impressed with the choice of stretch stitches, and how well it handles thick denim and stretchy materials. Really love this machine! As for ordering and delivery, I placed my order Thursday afternoon and received it Friday evening.

My new Singer Tradition is wonderful, I love the simplicity and ease of use, it feels like an ‘old fashioned’ machine; a breath of fresh air in this digital computerized world. It does what I want, not what it thinks I’m trying to do. I absolutely love it.

After much deliberation I decided to buy this Singer to replace a much loved and much used old 1956 model 201K and am very pleased with it. It feels solid and super easy to thread, yet very quiet, and with the walking foot attachment solves a lot of issues I’d had sewing layers. Makes better straight seams, and with optional stitches, it’s a great workhorse machine. I love it- my old one will be purely decorative now!

Review by Phil S
Having broken the wife's old singer making something in leather, I had to replace it and ordered a 5523 heavy duty singer. ordered on thursday pm and arrived sat am.superb. Machine does everything I expected efficiently and quietly. bobbin fit is improved and threading now very easy. watch out for the foot pedal as very touchy if you want a slow feed in. Good product, brilliant service, 5 stars.

The basics are fairly easy to pick up. It's taking me a little while to feel comfortable and learn what this machine can do but I'm happy with the machine and glad I've bought it.
