Customer Reviews
This is not anything arrange to what SInger promised!I had high-priced hopes for this machine. When I bought this machine (four years ago) I thought it would be fantastic to own one machine that would do both sewing and needlepoint, and it's made by Singer! One of the reasons I THOUGHT this would be a great machine at the time is because it's updatable. Although it may be updatable, they have never created anything new for the implement and you would be just as well to buy the less expensive model that isn't updatable. Singer promised new and exiting changes and I'm sitting here with a machine that hasn't misrepresented since I bought it and still only does what it did when they first designed the machine. They haven't even added stitch fills which my very root Brother Embroidery machine had.
The two units (sewing machine and embroidery unit) are large and unwieldy and the sewing machine is very heavy. Also the machine is supposed to be able to do multiple hoopings for larger designs. I've never had a multi-lined item turn out like I had envisioned. It could be operator error, but I have done everything they suggested.
There is a huge erudition curve with both units, but Singer's Customer Support is great if/when you call needing assistance and can get through to a human.
There are some in the final analysis neat built in stitches, but when I use the built in embroidery stitches (done without the embroidery unit) the designs doubt the sanity and are hard to keep on track. I draw guidelines with an air erase pen, but the foot travels everywhere while creating the style, so it's difficult to figure out where the design is going.
On the plus side, I do like the automatic thread changer for when you are doing tapestry, but the automatic bobbin rewind in the embroidery mode sucks. When you get near the end of the bobbin, the ring wants to wind a new bobbin, but in order for it to do that, it has to go out to the right hand side of your project and stitch off the unused bobbin thread. NOT something you want to happen while stitching out on an expensive silk or any other project for that enigma. Also even though the automatic thread changer is supposed to allow you to walk away while your design stitches out, you still want to hang close because it only changes to the next color.
Also, you need throttle the machine way down in order to get it to embroider well and even then, you will sometimes have problems (birds nests on the bottom, tearing holes in your fabric).
They sold this unit as having an "spontaneous thread tensioner". I wouldn't call it that at all. You need to put in a sample piece of fabric and stitch out their nervousness "star". You have to manually adjust the thread tensions until you get the star to stitch out properly. (It's purposes easier to do it the old fashioned way, stitch a straight stitch and check for loops.) Most of the time I have to stitch out their lead about five or six "samples" before I get the tension right. And After I have the tension correct (according to their star) I sometimes still have problems with the motif tensions not being correct.
Something else I thought would be pretty neat, is they show their machine as being able to create a stitch that looks disburse a deliver quilting. Nothing in their manuals or instruction books show how to create this effect. I was told you need to use undisputed bobbin thread, and mess with the tension, but it isn't an automatic stitch like they lead you to fancy. I'm sure if you mess with the tension on any machine, you can eventually get it to the point it will make a "hand quilted" look stitch.
In end, I've pieced together multiple quilts with my machine and created quite a few embroidered projects but I handle Singer really dropped the ball with these units. Knowing what I know now, I would not buy this machine.

A spectacular embroidery adventureThe Singer Futura gizmo is everything it claims to be. It is computer operated and totally intuitive but you must be minimally computer savvy. You can buy a guaranteed used computer for very undersized money. The multiple stitch sewing functions and surger are, however, independent of the computer. I am an 82 year old manful and decided to do this as a hobby and discovered that sewing skills are not required for the embroidery function You will find that all malfunctions are worker errors so follow the instructions closely they are mostly pictorial with little text. The potentials of this Singer are such that if you don't get the supplementary software package (sometimes offered with the same machine price) you are missing out on the most creative part and you will be confined to the 3600 provided designs. Some of you may find this adequate especially since many more designs are promised through the internet. It is however the Autopunch software that gives you this great unconstraint. You can change any image into embroidery designs and therein is the power of this Singer. Being also a photographer I use Adobe Photoshop software to direct or alter the image which is what you may have to do to get Autopunch to make any sense of it; other software may apply. For fabric stabilizers try to use some closed spin stiff fabric. You can also try spray-on starch. To put designs on terry cloth you need to use the water soluble stabilizer on top otherwise the loops of the heart become entangled in your design making it look untidy. Save the torn away stabilizer and decline it in water and use it also as paint-on stabilizer. Start with single color designs until you get proficient at threading the vehicle which is what you will be doing a lot. I was fully operational in one week's time. Tailors or seamstresses not familiar with computers should yoke up with a computer savvy friend or family member (most of them are) and together you will share the great joy of automated embroidery.

Singer Sewing Machine Table (No Machine)
I inherited this Singer sewing machine table from my grandmother. She had it for years and had at one time used the sewing machine. Apparently it quit working, so she got rid of that part and just used it as a decorative table. She painted it brown, but it could be refinished - the wood underneath is nice. It has four drawers (2 on each side) and a flip out storage area in the middle. The iron legs are ornate and the singer logo is prominently displayed in the middle. All four wheels are intact and work.
I've been using it as a decorative table, but am wondering what, if anything, it is worth if I ever decide to sell it. Thanks!

Does anyone know anything about singer sewing machines?
Q: I have recently aquired what appears to be an antique singer sewing machine model # G7174698. I would appreciate any information anyone could share on this sewing machine.
A: You have a model 66 released on July 10,1919. There were 50,000 released that year alone. Made at the Elizabethport factory in Elizabeth, New Jersey.
I have a couple, and even though they are probably the most common old machines around they are very good and strong. In nice condition its worth less than a hundred dollars. Nice in a nice cabinet maybe a couple hundred. If its not so nice condition it may still be worth 50.00 if it works good.
Kind of cool aren't they. Have fun with it and learn how to work it.
Good luck.
