Customer Reviews
- Really love it and so glad I got it.
I just got Singer Sewing Machine Model 1507 today. The manual is super easy to understand. I'd never threaded a machine on my own before, but there is even a numbered guide right on the machine to tell you where the top thread goes. The guide on the machine plus the very simple instructions in the manual made threading the thing a breeze.  With the foot pedal, it's fairly easy to control the speed. I've read some reviews on similar machines (a Brother one, in particular, that I was also looking at) with complaints of it going from 0 to 100 with nothing in between. Not so with this one.
It's really quiet. Singer Sewing Machine Model 1507 is a little awkward having the top spool horizontal, but it works. It's a little heavier than I expected, but that makes it more sturdy. It has a little storage compartment that's really convenient and a nice way to keep everything in one place. It has a little lever for reverse sewing, which I really like. Comes with a neat little cover that has a slot at the top for the carrying handle.

- Serviceable, useful sewing machine
Singer Sewing Machine Model 1507 is a good all-purpose, low-cost household machine, although as a long-time Singer fan and former Singer sewing machine dealer, I don't care for the vertical bobbin design. It is compact and comes with its own sturdy, attractive cover that allows you to carry the machine by its handle, so don't bother ordering a hard-shell case for it. The free-arm and accessory compartment designs are carefully thought out.
