SINGER MX60 Lightweight & Portable Sewing Machine with Accessory Kit & Foot Pedal | 57 Stitch Applications, LED Light & 4-step Buttonhole | Great for Crafts & Mending

Easy to use as most singer products are. Functions as advertised. Lightweight and built well. Got on a Black Friday sale so definitely worth the money. I will probably look for a case to make it easier to transport and not have to worry about damage as much. 10/10

I didn't expect much of this item, but so simple and easy after figure it out. Definitely value for money.Okay the manual came with kinda suck, but thier youtube is great!! Pleae check it out.

I have given Singer machines many chances. (4 too many chances but I'll explain that later).This machine seems like it should be beginner friendly, but I would warn beginners from buying it because when you're new to sewing, you might not know whether you're making a mistake or if the machine is just.. well bad.I have been sewing professionally for 10 years, I typically use a Juki Industrial machine, but if I need to travel, I bring a transportable home sewing machine. In this travel situation where I was visiting my long-distance partner, I decided rather than transporting my travel machine (an affordable but fantastic Brother cs7000i), instead, I'll buy a new machine with decent reviews that I can leave at their place. I found this Singer machine and though my gut told me, "don't buy a Singer, you have had issues with every single machine you have bought from them in the past"... I bought a Singer.You know the Singer Heavy Duty sewing machines many people seem to rave about? Not sure if I'm just incredibly unlucky, but I went through 3 of them, all of them having the same issue. Honestly, shame on me for giving the model so many chances.The stitches would jam up, the hand wheel would lock up, and the repair guy I would bring them to would tell me, there is some mechanical "timing issue". Every. single. time.(And I should add, take the "heavy duty" marketing with a grain of salt. Their Heavy Duty line is incomparable to an industrial so if you need "heavy duty" sewing, look into an industrial sewing machine)So this Singer model is now the 4th machine I have had to return. This time around I did not bother wasting my energy or my money by bringing it to a repair guy because I am done with this brand.Out of the box it gave me issues.Let me paint a picture: this machine is set up to be beginner friendly so rather than have the different wheels controlling stitch length/width (width for zig-zag stitches) you just turn a wheel with pictures of stitches to the one that aligns with your needs and that's it. Well, I wrongfully assumed the most basic, most necessary stitch on the machine would be functional, but I should have remembered, this is Singer.For the project I was working on, I needed a 2mm size straight stitch. So I select the smallest stitch on the wheel and everything seems to be fine but then the machine starts locking up. I can't turn the wheel.So I proceed to rethread everything (including the bobbin), and all seems okay until... you guessed it, it locks up...again. This happened over and over, and the only reason I kept trying to get the machine to work was that I was on a deadline. Well finally, after rethreading everything for the 5th time, I tried something different and turned the wheel to the biggest stitch and suddenly, it was working. I thought "huh maybe the gears got caught and it just needed to reset, let me try the smallest stitch again". The problem came back and it began locking up on me again.I realized, that out of the box, this sewing machine which should be able to perform straight stitches with ease (because it is the one you will be using all the time) literally could not do that one simple function.I got to thinking, "what if someone new to sewing bought this machine? What if they kept having the issues I was having, but because they haven't had 10+ years of experience sewing, they assume THEY'RE the problem and that they're making mistakes when really... they're working with a lemon?"So buyers and especially beginners beware, this machine might gaslight you into thinking you're bad at sewing when really, it's not a reliable machine. It might work fine some of the time, but with every model I've ever bought, it was only a matter of time before an issue arose (and suspiciously the same issue of the hand wheel locking so I'm guessing Singer in an attempt to cut costs somewhere has not made any real attempt at fixing this years-long defect in their affordable product line).If you're looking for an affordable sewing machine go with Brother, every home sewing machine I have bought or used made by Brother has been a workhorse and I've never returned a single one. If you have a bit more money, companies like Juki, Bernina, and Husqvarna Viking make great machines (but they do tend to be at a higher price point).Back in the 1800's the original owner of Singer made the brand one of the most famous sewing machines among home sewers through the use of extensive advertising and offering a product that actually delivered on it's promises. Now the company continues to rely on its household name to sell products, but don't be fooled.If you or someone you know had a Singer machine 30 years ago, they may have been just fine, but now their machines are unreliable and I would not recommend them.
