Review by Cardigal P
I did a massive amount of research online before replacing my 40 year old Singer machine with this one. It has all the features I wanted at a superb price. I phoned the company on a Saturday, got a live expert who gave good advice, and was promised free delivery on a 24 hour service. Good machine, great value for money and an amazing service, together with TWO free gifts. I'm going to order some extra presser feet from these people - they sure do deserve to get all my future business.

Delivery service was excellent, Opened the box to find already working machine, fantastic, no fiddling around! Clear instruction manual, very pleased i chose a singer! Would definable recommend singer ! Free £50 gift a little disappointing, the threads sent were not usable on my new overlocker, more of a travel pack. But well pleased with the scissors as they are razor sharp.

I like the 160 sewing machine. I like its simplicity to use. The fact that is lightweight. I miss some of the facilities on the more sophisticated machines. But I still think it is a nice machine. I have put one of my more expensive machines away and intend to use this one for my ordinary sewing.

Very pleased with this machine, I have had a singer machine for over 30 years now but sadly it deceased while in the middle of a project so needed an immediate replacement. Saw this one in Argos and found it £50 cheaper at singermachines and it was delivered next day!! I found it easy to use - the self threading needle a brilliant feature and the buttonhole attachment much improved on my old machine. Finished the project which was pretty much standard sewing and have now used it for heavy duty work and again it has done a good job. This is a good basic machine - the only negative thing so far, is it only comes with a dustcover but it fits in my old machine hard case so not a problem for me. However, does have a carry handle on the top which makes it very easy to move around.

I upgraded to this machine from one I'd had for 25 years. From the minute I started using it I felt I had just arrived from another planet!! Computerised. Automatic tension and needle threader - which I've yet to master! (not a lover of manuals - think I need to be shown) Great selection of stitches, press button reverse, an absolute joy to use. I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT.

Review by Emily Z
This is my first machine and I am really enjoying using it. It's the perfect weight and I'm getting on with it very well. The bobbin is really easy but the auto threader is much more difficult to use than threading by hand...if there is a knack of doing it I would love to know what it is. Its no biggy as I'm having a great time sewing -)) Emily

I am very happy with my purchase. As I do embroidery as well, now I can sew when I want without changing to my other machine all the time. Sue

Review by Berni A
I had already decided to buy a 7463 sewing machine and reading the reviews only confirmed my decision to buy it, and I'm glad I did. The instruction booklet is easy to follow. I found it really easy to use. Love the embroidery stitches, very quiet machine compared to my old one. Highly recommended.

Review by Louise Z
What can I say...? Firstly, was delivered in less than 24 hours which was very impressive. Am really happy with the machine, looks good, sturdy, straight forward and is ideal for me. Having not threaded a sewing machine since I was 11 at school, so 23 years later, had bobbin wound and was ready to go within 5 mins, the needle threaded in about 10 seconds. The instruction book is really helpful with good diagrams in which if you follow you can't go wrong. Am very happy and would definitely recommend.
