Review by Len W
100%I left it a week after receiving this machine to review it as i thought i would try a decent amount of practice before passing judgment. So far i have made one tote bag, one dress and one skirt, embroidered my partners logo on a few aprons, embroidered several flowers, words and a few free designs i found on the internet. This machine is fantastic. The stitch quality is great in the sew mode, its sturdy and simple to use, very simple to thread and has been intelligently designed to be useful and user friendly. The embroidery function is excellent. i have no prior experience of an embroidery machine but i cant imagine being any happier with a different machine. The software is very easy to use on my windows machine. Even my technophobic mother can use it with ease. I read several awful reviews of this Singer and i feel as though they must have bought a different machine entirely! Of course you do need to read the manual as all sewing machines are threaded differently, and have slightly different ways of working. But the manual is very easy to follow. If it carries on working as it does at the moment this is a sewing machine for life!

80%I have just unpacked the machine and it took me very little time to set up, very good instructions with good results. My machine before this was a Singer which I had when I was 11; Im now 45 and definitely deserve a new one! This was over 30 years ago and the price is about the same!

80%I have a Futura 250 and it is wonderful. I had to buy a new computer and it has Windows 7 and my embroidery software is not compatable. Does anyone know how to download the software for Windows 7? (STAFF - Check support site for the new software updates)

100%I have never learned to sew, but at the age of 60, decided that I wanted to see if I could teach myself, and I bought the singer, and am absolutely delighted with it. I have been delighted in the ease of use, and am getting quite confident with my machine. I would recommend it whole heartedly

100%I am extremely happy with my purchase of a new Singer sewing machine from your company. Your on-line product descriptions were clear and complete, ordering was very easy, and your free next-day delivery was wonderful. The sewing machine is exactly what I wanted, and the owners manual gives detailed explanations of features and instructions for use. It has been a pleasure to deal with you.

Review by Ehawlz X
80%So far, I am very happy with the product, despite my problems at first. I also like the whole look of the design, and it isnt terribly bulky, even sitting on my small desk, and once I got it all figured out, Ive found that it is easy to use, and makes my sewing much easier. I would recommend this product, especially since it was fairly inexpensive.

Review by Pamela Rogers
60%I am happy with my machine now that I have fathomed out the stitch defaults and possible alterations to same. My only beef is that the needle threader has ceased to function although it was working when the machine arrived. The hook seems to have disappeared and it resolutely refuses to thread the needle.

Review by Betty Hellard
100%I absolutely love this sewing machine. It can do it all from thin to bulky.I read some bad reviews on it and I cant find any thing what so ever wrong with this machine.I am an experienced seamstress,having worked for 34 years sewing.I love all the features on it, especially the needle threader. For the price you cant beat it. Maybe someone that was a beginner and didnt take time to watch the video or read the book posted those reviews,but for me I love this machine.
