Great sewing machine
I was looking for a new sewing machine after leaving my Kenmore machine with my parents for my Mom to use.
I have had/used Kenmore brands in the past with no issues, so I started out searching for the next Kenmore. During my search the Singer stylist caught my attention. When comparing it to the Kenmore I was considering, it seems to offer a lot more stitch options than a Kenmore for the better price. So decided to give the Singer a try.
First impressions. It's quiet machine, it's small but sturdy. It does the stitches really well and so happy I don't have to worry about adjusting the tension control any more. I love the number of stitch options it offers and gives me the ability to be more creative.
It was very easy to start using, and the booklet has really good explanation to get you started.
The only set back I have so far is the foot press control. It's not as responsive/sensitive as the Kenmore I had before but its just something I will have to get used to.
Would be nice if it came with a solid cover instead of a plastic one.
Overall I would recommend it to anyone that is a starter or intermediate sewer.
