SINGER® Heavy Duty 500 Classic High Speed Sewing Machine + Accessory Kit

I am glad I decided to buy the Singer Classic HD500. Love it's retro look!More importantly, it is really easy to thread, and winding the bobbin was a breeze. I have not had problems with thread breaking like some have mentioned.. And the foot pedal works well and has a wide range from barely moving to high speed and it handles the fabric well at both speeds. This machine is much quieter than any others I have, too. While the outside body is plastic, the inside is metal and it is heavy so it stays put when sewing.Folks have mentioned the inconvenience of not having a full manual shipped with th

I’m a 65 year old male and learned how to sew from my mother as a young teenager, using her mother’s old Singer from the 1930s. That machine died a few years ago, and I recently started researching new machines. I settled on the Singer Classic HD500 because it is heavy duty, is not computerized and is simple to use, and the styling is reminiscent of those old machines.I used it today to raise the hem of some new Levi’s 501 jeans, and the machine had no problem with the heavy denim. The end of the machine slips off (it has a small storage compartment) so that the legs of pants can slip over the

I read mixed reviews and youtube videos about this machine , some negatives , some positives. But i still decided to buy it and try it out. I love it completely. Reading the reviews of various problems, i came to the conclusions, that it may be the users not using it correctly. You know a simple error will give you bad results. Tension, wrong needle, damaged needle, wrong threading and so on.... everytime i had a problem while testing it, i realized the problem was mine... there are many components to give a great stitch. A bit expensive, not sure why it's more expensive that the regular Singe

Love love love this machine. I have another Singer, heavy duty one. This one is so smooth and the needle threader actually works, bonus. It truly is a work horse. I have been able the finish 2 queen size quilts in no time. No clogging, no breaking thread, just sit and sew. A fabulous machine. I know which Singer I'll be buying from now on. No extra features to break down. Just a outstanding, simple machine.

UPDATE: 06/18/26: The warranty for this machine is USELESS! The timing for the one-step button hole function did not work right from the time I received the machine so was not even factory tested. I contacted Singer about the warranty and found the warranty mostly protects Singer, not the buyer. I was told my machine was still "under warranty" and that I could ship it to Singer who would then ship it elsewhere for repair, so God knows when I would ever see my machine again. Plus I would have to pack it myself and haul it to UPS or USPS, or FedX. This is extremely inefficient. I was told I coul

I’ve known how to sew since I was a little girl, but I haven’t taken it up seriously until now. I wanted a durable machine that has all of the basics and won’t confuse me. I also will be teaching my daughters to sew on this machine. This has been perfect! I’ve been able to work out any kinks on my own (without needing to YouTube solutions). I feel like it’s very user friendly, simple enough for beginners, but advanced enough for someone like me who’s advancing their skill.It’s no louder than the other sewing machines I’ve used, and the adjustable speed it good.

I had to return the first machine as it would only sew in reverse. I immediately reported the same machine and it's working great. It is louder than my other machines but it also has a stronger motor so it sews heavier fabrics. A good trade off.

Almost perfect.She is so quiet and smooth that she is a dream to use. I love the vintage vibe. (so does my daughter...she is buying one too)I got a screamin deal. This was paired with the iron.Here's what I am disappointed in.....This is a BLACK machine and they sent me a WHITE vertical thread post.Also, they put in a plastic bobbin. Plastic bobbins float when you use them. Singer knows this so they give you a piece of felt to offset it.I threw it away and bought metal bobbins.
