Heavy Duty 4452 High-Speed Sewing Machine with Accessory Kit | Strong Motor with Enhanced Piercing Power, 110 Stitch Applications, Full Metal Frame, 1-Step Buttonhole & LED Lights, Grey

This is not the first singer heavy duty I have owned. I have one that broke because of my own stupidity. And of course I broke it while I was in the middle of a project. So that one's in the shop and being the impatient person I am, I decided to buy a second one to finish my project. It's sews like a dream! The speed is spectacular, it's easy to thread, and it has enough stitches to keep me happy. I find I don't need a lot of stitches because I'm not into machine embroidery or anything like that. I basically sew garments, bags, etc and straight, zigzag, a couple of stretch stitches, and a few decorative stitches are all I need. This is a great machine if somebody wants to start out because it's inexpensive and it works very well.

I’ve had my machine for a while now and I’ve made quite a few projects with it. I am absolutely thrilled with how well it works. There are more than enough stitch functions for most sewists. This machine is mechanical instead of digital which means I can clean and maintain it on my own and not have to worry with electronics and circuits breaking down. Don’t be intimidated by the word “mechanical” if you’re new to sewing. Everything is as easy as turning a dial. Like most machines it works best if you remove the throat plate and clean and oil it after every project. It’s insanely simple and takes me about 5 minutes to do. You can find tutorials online, and other than the oil (which is cheap and lasts forever) this machine comes with all of the tools you need although I recommend buying a tiny screwdriver set if you sew a lot. I’ve even set the timing on this thing after a mishap with an aftermarket ruffled foot and was amazed at how simple it was to do. I also like that if you learn to listen to this machine it’s going to tell you waaay ahead of time if there’s a problem so you can take care of it before it jams. The only problem I’ve had with this machine is that if I use the upright spool pin the thread sometimes jumps and wraps around the pin and jams. I finally quit using that pin and either use a freestanding one I bought cheap or the horizontal pin that comes with the machine. I’ve been able to sew corsets with multiple layers of fabric and cording with no issues at all. It took me a few tries to get the buttonhole feature right (really make sure you have the lever all the way down, again, watch a few videos online) but buttonholes are now easy as pie. If you’re a more advanced sewer who loves all of the bells and whistles like push button thread cutters and super fancy features, this probably won’t be your fave unless you’re looking for a workhorse for more sturdy fabrics. But I assume that anyone that advanced is probably looking at machines that are 5 times more expensive and will require a pro to service once a year.

Love the ease of use high quality for a reasonable price . Was looking for Hemingway jeans works great.

Fantastic!! Truly Heavy Duty for a great price! I work with 1000D Fabrics, Molle Webbing, Velcro, and Eva Foam as Fabric Materials. This machine handles 4 Layers of Molle Webbing + 2 Layers of 1000D fabric with ease! Granted, I did already bend the stock needle that it came out-of-the-box with, but the included 100/16 Needle has proven more durable! I was debating between this or the 4411, but the 4452 has more accessories that's more affordable to purchase together with more stitch options. Although, I don't really plan to use a lot of different stitch options since I was also debating on an industrial machine that only has 1 stich option. I truly believe this is a "Heavy Duty" Sewing Machine, and the people who say 'don't buy into "Heavy Duty"' may just lack a bit more experience with different machines. I had a Viking Emerald 116, that the salesman said was good enough to be heavy duty but was not labeled "Heavy Duty," and although I used it for 3 years, it struggled with every project. My Viking finally broke, but I wish it broke sooner or just bought the SINGER Heavy Duty 4452 Machine at the beginning!

They say it has 50 percent more power.....than what....???? I wish they provided a kit that I could use to soup up this unit to get a bit more power, another 25% or more and I would pay anohter hundred. I like all the features otherwise and hope this unit will last like the kenmores and singers of the past. I also hope the unit is all metal gears, because the plastic one always broke within a couple of years. I ususually like the singer stitching and mostly the adjustments in the old machines. So far the thread looping is okay, works some of the time and top loading is more convenient. They should sell this machine with an optional carrying case and have aftermarket accessories to make the unit stronger and more convenient. I soup up my cars, so what not a sewing machine?

Tutto secondo descrizione, consiglio l'acquisto ottima macchina.

Esta máquina es excelente, tiene buena velocidad, no hace ruido, es apta para las agujas industriales, cose muy muy bien los jeans hasta el cuero , esa función que tiene es excelente , y claro es más o menos pesada pero por qué es máquina de las buenas

Good machine and quick to deliver, however, when I purchased the machine it did NOT state it was coming from USA, consequently arrived with USA Plug and NOT Australian - cost me $50 AUS for a power reducer from 240V to 110V.

Se siente de buena calidad, tiene muchas funciones que desconozco porque soy nuevo en esto, pero fácil de usar

Bought this for the wife for Christmas. She absolutely loves the machine and all the stitches she says very easy to use
