Customer Review

Yes, it is a perfect little machine
by Customer A1AHW31M5O2Y4H at January 16th, 2006
This is a fine, worthy machine for any capable seamster or seamstress or any beginner. I've been sewing for nearly 30 years. I've made tailored suits, topcoats, heavy-duty canvas equipment carriers, drapes, and upholstered old furniture with Singers using the old, gorgeous treadle model with its outrageously ornate gold-leaf Sphinx. The quality and reliability of Singer machines I've been used to and expected is apparent in this model. It is solidly made with enough functions for the needs of anyone with competence and skill. It is as "heavy-duty" as I was used to and has sewn several layers of thick canvas. The 6038 is by no means a "beginner" machine. Used with mature experience and patient skill, it is capable of any complex task.

Some of these reviews seem unrealistic in expectation or poorly informed and so perplex or amuse me. I agree with another reviewer, this is a "perfect little machine." For those reporting disappointment or failure of this model I'd urge to view the video and read the manual completely and thoroughly before concluding something doesn't work. Don't despair. It all works. If something doesn't work, read/view again for perhaps you missed a fine detail will which reveal the cause of your problem.

Sewing machines fascinated me and the old machines that first attracted me as a boy were products of steam-engine technology: metal devices rotating and oscillating in coordinated synchronicity performing a complex task. The technology maturing in development over 125 years is apparent in the heritage of this 6038. I admire this machine.
