Customer Reviews
- Great machine!
I am very happy with this machine. It has 66 stitch functions (search google for an image "list" of these, like I did), 3 buttonhole options, and a twin-needle option. I have used about 10 of the decorative stitches already, and I'm incredibly impressed with how well the machine handles them. Singer Model 7467 Sewing Machine is quiet enough that I can have a conversation with my husband while he's 15 feet away, all without either of us raising our voices. It has a smooth feed and doesn't shake (like my last machine did, even in tip-top shape!). It is sleek-looking and it doesn't weigh much, so I can carry it without feeling as though my arm is going to break off. The reverse stitch is easy to use (the button is right by the needle, so you can hold it as you are feeding the fabric). Bobbins are simple to wind on this machine, and it even has a self-threading needle, but I prefer to thread by hand. I've had no problems here, it works beautifully, but I kind of think it's over-kill as I have no problems with threading my needle. However, I can see how this option may be very helpful to people with unsteady hands.

- Great machine!!!
It works great NOW. I purchased this machine last month and had similar issues with the straight stitching. I had changed the foot from the original one that was on it. I had never seen a closed foot like that before so I put on the one I was familiar with that came with the accessories. I tried everything to get the stitches right, including changing the machine's needle, increasing the tension, decreasing the tension, and rethreading the machine. When I was just about to give up and throw it out the window, I put the original foot back on. That did the trick! It works fine now, and I have used stitches I've never used before, like the scallop stitch to decoratively hem a sundress and the overcast seam stitch which looks professional! I have been sewing on Singer Model 7467 Sewing Machine for 42 years and was very hesitant to purchase one of these "new fangled" computerized models. Lots of plastic, but lots of fun! I'm enjoying playing with all the stitches! I will never give up my 30 year old machine and since I started giving sewing lessons to my daughter and her friend, now they can sew together. I would definitely recommend this machine - great price for great quality.

- Love it! Second machine.
I was sooo frustrated with my Singer Model 7467 Sewing Machine Simple constantly jamming and having bobbin issues I almost gave up sewing. After about a year of off and on, I bought this on a black Friday sale for $199 at JoAnn's. LOVE IT! Just drop in the bobbin. I've done several projects, including sewing apparel and quilting, and it has never, ever jammed. I have had thread break once after almost doing a whole quilt (Coats thread) and never.
