Singer Confidence 7470 Sewing Machine (Household Goods)

Customer Review

I have the machine for about two years and am quite happy with it. It does (mostly) what they should, provides plenty of decorative stitches and the most important accessories is already there. So far I had only a feet for concealed zippers and of course buy more momentum a bobbin.

Getting used to was the position of the presser foot that is not located on the back, but inside of me. Right-handed determined convenient because they no longer need to pass through, as left-hander just annoying for me.
It is possible with the machine several layers of solid material to sew (in my case three layers corduroy, two with Decovil reinforced), this is but to act with sense.
For Freiarmnutzung the extension table is removed. This is only possible with power, feeling and patience.
There are easy times small items in the accessory box lid. It's quite tricky there out again.
When setting the features the machine beeps, the sound can not be exhibit.
When buttonhole sewing is to make sure that the lever is really at the bottom, otherwise nothing happens. On my machine is about one centimeter above the operating position a short stop must be overcome.
The reverse stitch hooked quite frequently. I tried another machine of this type in the store because it was that way. So maybe a general problem.
Speaks the pedal not to.

Although here now are listed some negative points, it's a good machine. The thread can be threading quickly, the stitches are clean, straightforward cleaning. The manual worthy of the name.

Conclusion: For occasional small and large sewing she is well suited, who sew much, will probably choose Pfaff anyway.
