Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Loaded with user-friendly features, this versatile sewing machine makes it easy to sew with confidence. Choose from 30 stitch patterns, including two fully automatic one-step buttonholes, a hand-look quilt stitch, several decorative stitches, and a variety of construction stitches. Each stitch supplies a one-touch selector button and pre-programmed optimal settings for length and width that can be adjusted as desired. Even more, it comes with a Drop & Sew system with a top drop-in bobbin that holds the thread exactly where it's needed as users pull the thread toward the back of the machine along a threading path--no need to draw up the thread before beginning to sew like with other machines. For added convenience, the unit provides an automatic built-in needle threader (no more squinting or frustrating repeated attempts), 13 needle positions, and a free arm that makes easy work of pant legs, cuffs, and sleeves. Other highlights include a clear bobbin cover, horizontal thread delivery, automatic tension, a StayBright LED light to illuminate the working area, a heavy-duty metal frame, a carrying handle, and on-board accessory storage. Accessories include needles, bobbins, a buttonhole opener/brush, spool caps (mini, small, and large), an aux spool pin, a dust cover, and snap-on presser feet (a zipper foot, buttonhole foot, general-purpose foot, and a blindstitch-hem foot). The sewing machine measures 17-1/5 by 8 by 12-1/2 inches and carries a 25-year limited warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Maybe for the occasional mending..., September 5, 2009

By	taniamc - See all my reviews

This review is from: Singer 7463 Confidence 30-Stitch Electronic Sewing Machine (Kitchen)

The first one I got was in Jan '09. It lasted me until June, and I started having a lot of problems with it. It started making terrible noises, sounded awful, wouldn't sew straight, stitches were inconsistent, tension was messing up intermittently I had to stop using it for vacation, got back and it was worse than ever. I sent it in for service (it took 3 weeks) and they sent it back saying they had adjusted the tension and found nothing wrong. It worked quietly for about 10 minutes, and then started freaking out again. I took it back and they swapped it out for a new one . The new one started having problems with feeding the fabric and rattling by the second day. The pressure on the presser foot was off, and there was no way of adjusting it. No way to lower the feed dogs either. I ended up returning it for a refund.

I was really disappointed with the quality of this machine. I wanted it to work well, and it did... briefly. It seems Singer has really lowered the bar with their quality standards.

This is a remarkable machine especially for this price. it's good to see that Singer is still innovating and making sewing machines that are affordable yet full of useful features. The only thing to be aware of is that you need to buy the hard case cover separately.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly Manufactured, December 31, 2009

By	A. Aversa - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Singer 7463 Confidence 30-Stitch Electronic Sewing Machine (Kitchen)

Ever since this sewing machine was brand new, it has made rattling sounds and jams to a halt, signaling a beeping alarm, especially when hemming denim. Even an experienced sewing lady at Jo-Ann's was surprised that it did not sew through certain parts of denim hems. Now, after two months of okay sewing, the part that rotates around the bobbin has gone so completely out of alignment with the rest of the machine that when the needle goes down it hits rock bottom, bends like crazy laterally, and breaks the needle. This particular machine had the same problems that taniamc mentions in her review. Maybe the Singer 7442 or Brother XL2600I is higher quality.
