What customers say about "Features"

SINGER Promise 1408 Sewing Machine

The bobbin changing is very easy, the mechanism provided to thread the bobbin is also easy to use, and helps stitch things faster.
The quality of the build is good, and its heavy enough to stay stable on the table. The electric pedal is responsive and smooth.
Fairly small and light, portable. Comes with a light near the needle that makes it easier to see the work as we stitch.
Foot pedal is easy to use, and stitch speed maxes out at a reasonable, manageable level.
Only drawback I could find is lack of a decent dust cover. The one offered with the machine is made of filmsy material.

SINGER Tradition 2250

I am very pleased with the sewing machine, it is light to carry and able to do all sewing that i require. It is also cheaper than other retailers i have tried.
This machine is just what I wanted, easy to use, with easy instuctions, great!! Would recommend it to anyone, especially first time sewers.
Bought this for my good lady, has made quite a few garments with it and she is very well pleased with its performance and quality build. Would recommend to others.
Done a few things with it already. Mainly repair our clothes. Does the job every time and is very easy to use.
Multiple types of stitches available, easy to use and in line with old singer products.
