Wonderful Multistitch Singer Sewing Machine


I purchased a similar Singer Sewing machine 2 Christmases back for my older (34 y.o.) daughter. She loves her machine, learned to use it easily, and has used it every month since. My younger daughter wanted a Sewing machine this Christmas, so I tried to get as close to the other machine as possible. This is basically the same model. My old machine (a sturdy but difficult to use Swiss “Elna” machine that I bought used more than 30 yrs. ago) was on the blink, so I decided it was time to get a new machine for me also, while I could still find the model that my older daughter liked so much.


I really love the ease of use. I basically only straight stiched with the old machine, or used simple zigzags, but I have already tried most of the features with my new Singer 7442 sewing machine. All of them are very easy to use. The free arm is wonderful!! I have repaired a hole near the knee in a favorite pair of jeans already. There is no way that I could have done that with the other. I used the button stitch to sew several buttons onto my lab jackets. This is wonderful!! I hate sewing buttons by hand. I also like the automatic needle threader very much. My eyes are getting poor, and it is hard to see the needle to thread it.


The machine is intuitive for initially threading, and for most functions. I like that the optimum stitch size is programmed in, but that it is easily changed if needed. I also prefer having the stitches on the machine, over a LED display on the newer/ higher end models, where it might be harder to figure out what stitches are available. I learned how to use a blind hem stitch to take up a pair of pants: the instructions on the web site were clearer for this than in the manual. The manual was very good for everything else, and was clear about the care needed (minimal) for the machine.


I am very happy with my purchase: a reasonable price for a wonderful machine for all basic and intermediate sewing!!

Plug In and Sew!


I purchased this sewing machine just this week. Chose standard shipping (free) from Amazon, and received it in just 3 days!


The machine was waiting for me when I got home from work. I took it out of the box, set it up, and made a poodle skirt in no time flat. The machine practically sewed the skirt by itself. It was easy to thread both the machine and the bobbin. It was easy to understand and read the manual. My sewing experience is costumes for the kids, pillows, blankets, crafts. Not a beginner but certainly not advanced, either. There are fun choices of stitch patterns that can be easily selected by simply pushing a button. No advanced degree needed for this machine!


The week prior to purchasing this machine, I’d purchased the Singer Inspiration 4210. The Inspiration should be named “Perspiration”. It was not at all easy to interpret the manual, or to figure out what stitch was what from the confusing dial(s). The Inspiration 4210 operation was not smooth and semi-automatic like the 7442 model is.


I was very frustrated and disappointed, and returned the Inspiration to the store, then went back to the drawing board and did some more research. Found several on Amazon, decided on the Singer 7442–and I love it!
