Singer Sewing Machine Reviews
Are Singer Sewing Machines worth the money? Which one is best? Read our reviews to find out. We look at features, warranty, pros & cons, consumer ratings, specifications, etc.
The Singer Sewing Company often needs no introduction as the name is synonymous with the sewing machine. This company already had offices in several countries in the mid 1800’s and by the late 1800’s controlled 80% of the worldwide sewing machine market. The company is named after “Isaac Merritt Singer” who invented the first practical sewing machine for domestic use. Over many years the machine evolved and features were added and refined. In 1975 Singer released the world’s first electronic sewing machine.

52.4 This review is really more of a heads-up for folks looking for an inexpensive, light machine for quick sewing work. The heads-up is this - think carefully before buying the Singer Quickfix sewing machine (sometimes spelled QuikFix). Yes it is lightweight and inexpensive but it surely has some issues and many owners don't like it.

88.7 Weve looked at a lot of Singer sewing machines in the past and while some get good reviews many get only average ratings from consumers. The Singer ONE is something of an exception in this regard and owners are giving it high praise. Owners like the fact that the unit is extremely easy to use, quiet and stylish. It does struggle with thicker materials though and the instruction manual could be better.

70.1 The Singer 3116 Simple is easy to use and it is not too expensive, however it has some issues. Owners complain that it is difficult to set the tension and that there is frequent thread jamming. Also, there are quite a few comments alluding to poor quality construction. Having said that, it is not the lowest rated Singer we have investigated and there are owners that really do like it. The 3116 has 18 built-in stitches and is fairly basic but it comes with a few bells and whistles.

58.6 The Singer 2932 sewing machine is fairly basic and it is also, unfortunately, the lowest consumer-rated Singer sewing machine we have looked at. It receives a wide range of owner ratings and while some really do like the machine, many others do not. On the positive side it is quite inexpensive and can often be found for under $150 and sometimes even as low as $120. However it has chronic issues with thread and materials jamming as well as the reverse stitch lever breaking.
