Review by Susan Mills
Very pleased with the machine. It was delivered as promised in good condition. I haven't had the chance to use it yet but it looks as if is certainly going to be able to do all the things I need it for. My last machine was bought in 1972 so a few changes since then.

I'm very pleased with this machine. It is sewing nicely, and so far has coped with light weight stretch cotton. I like the fact that we can adjust the pressure foot. Lots of machines nowadays don't have this facility. I have an expensive computerized sewing machine with all the bells and whistles, but it doesn't manage light stretch material ( Keeps eating the fabric ) or go over bulky seams! ( jams ) I would recommend this machine for a beginner sewer. The free gift was good too. I haven't used the scissors yet but the sewing kit has all you need to start sewing.

I have only had this machine for a week so not had much chance to put it through its paces yet but so far I love it and wish I'd bought it months ago instead of struggling with my old antiquated machine. Very happy with singermachines.co.uk, they gave me very good and quick service.

Review by Janette Thompson
Arrived when they said it would (next day). It's everything that they say it is. It tackles heavy/thick seams no problem and is a lot lighter in weight than I thought it would be. I would definitely recommend this machine to anyone who sews, whatever their experience. It is so easy to use I can hardly believe it. The only critisism I have is that the foot pedal is very lightweight and is difficult to place on the floor due to the shortness of the electric cable. Apart from that it's fantastic. What more can I say?

A lot different to my previous machine which was an industrial Brother machine. Only had it a few days and so far so good. Have only used it to alter my clothes but does the job.

Review by Pam Simms
Although I've been sewing for years, all I need now is a lightweight basic machine, so when my 20 yr old Toyota gave up the ghost I chose this one. It arrived quickly and am delighted so far. It also sews heavier fabric, which is a must. I find the spool filling thread direction strange, but will get used to it. Came with set of scissors which are good quality.

Review by Philip Lavender
This is a great low budget sewing machine for those just starting to take up sewing, or if you are 'downsizing', and want a good basic selection of tools to use for occasional everyday sewing tasks without spending a lot of money for functions that you may never need/use. It is easy to use and, although it is a 'lightweight' machine, it is more than adequate and great value for money.

Review by Susan Winter
I'm so pleased that I picked this machine! It feels substantial and hard wearing. The instructions are easy to follow and the machine was easy to thread. It doesn't have an auto threader, but that's less to go wrong. The dials are intuitive and clearly labelled, there is a small accessory store which slides off for sewing of e.g. sleeves. A great buy, a good mid price workhorse.
