Singer 4423 Heavy Duty 44-Stitch Sewing Machine

The feed dog and bobbin winder broke after just a few days of extremely limited use

Do NOY buy. Do nit expven accept as a gift. 60 years and three sewing machines. This is a piece of garbage. The bobbin mechanism never works. I disn and read the users manual every single time I dare to use this machine. Took me two ounces of chocolate to calm down today. I’d give it to Goidwill but I can’t subject anyone to this piece of junk. Spend the extra money and get a better machine.

I am so upset with this machine I bought it before Christmas then had no time I am finally trying it and it is a total piece of garbage DID NOT COME with a manual so cheap Now it's to late to return it Buyer beware

Love this machine for straight stitching. However, no instructions come with it - you can find a guide on line that will tell you how to thread it - otherwise you just keep trying different settings until you figure out what to do. Luckily I have sewn for a very long time, so it wasn’t terrible to figure out. Just wanted an easy to carry machine otherwise I wouldn’t have purchased it. (Purchased during Covid)

I love this sewing machine!

I bought the machine a few weeks ago and have used it a little bit. It seems sturdy enough, but what a lot of plastic! I sure wish it had come with a hard-copy paper manual. That would have been a fifth star.

I really love this machine, bought it about a month ago and have replaced my very expensive light weight Brother machine with it. Stiches are beautiful, very easy to use. It is everything I need in a machine!

I'm new to sewing, and this machine was consistently recommended to me as beginner friendly model. I've used the machine for about a month now and I agree this is great a machine for beginner's. Everything is laid out in a way that’s easy to understand. I've been able to figure out how to sew multiple projects and fabrics.

This machine is a cheap piece of garbage. I purchased my Singer Heavy Duty 4432 machine at the end of last year. I don't use a sewing machine often, but I needed to upgrade and assumed that this machine would be suitable for my purposes. This past week, a project came up that required some sewing and I was excited to finally put my machine to use. Literally the first time I went to fill the bobbin, a plastic piece inside the machine broke. I was forced to rig the bobbin to my electric drill just to get through the job. Now, when I go to look up the warranty, I discover that it's only good for 90 days on mechanical parts. This brand new machine that I've used exactly once has already broken and apparently, if I want to even bother to fix it, I'm on my own. Is this what Singer has come to? I always considered Singer to be a trusted brand that builds quality sewing machines, but if this is what I can expect, then this will be the last machine I buy from them.

I bought this machine and it showed up broken, the bobbin threader was broken off, the bags containing the other items were open already. Did they send me a previously returned machine?

Love my new machine! Great price point. The only problem I’m having is the threader. It worked the first time but now doesn’t seem to thread Thank you

I bought this a month ago. I like the machine but I was hoping Heavy Duty meant it would sew over the thick seam of jeans I have to shorten. After breaking a needle, I just finished sewing it by hand. Also, it would help very much to have the manual included. It’s much needed, but has been a hassle to try and get one online.

Bought the exact model my sister-in-law has I thought it was all metal like hers but it’s plastic. Bought the hard shell case to protect it but it’s just an empty shell with NO protection for the machine at all! It just flopped around! Had to use packaging from the shipping to keep machine stable in the case so what’s the point

This is a great workhorse of a machine. I don’t need anything fancy, but I need heavy duty for some of the things that I do and this really fits the bill. you can always rely on singer to give you the best machine. I’ve only had the machine a little over a week and it’s already had an issue with the thread going around the bobbin. I was able to resolve it, but I don’t know how, This is the reason for only four stars.

I bought my Singer 4423 three years ago and absolutely love it. It's perfect for making clothes, furnishings and craft projects. The heavy duty aspect is there when you need it, but it also works fine for lightweight projects. Super versatile and easy to use. Extra accessories are reasonably priced. Highly recommended if you don't need lots of fancy stitches.

Perfect stitch out of box. However, there is a very tight screw on face plate that will not untighten and the needle position doesnt work properly. Other than those issues I love the machine.

I am not a fancy sewer. I would say I am more of a crafter so I needed something that would run through layers of fabric etc . First time out I hemmed a pair of jeans. The machine went up and over the length hem fold with ease. I’m sold. I would have said 5 stars but I am having issues with the threader. It might be me but it worked great the first 5 times and now, not so much. The machine is perfect for what I need though and I would recommend it to a friend.

It worked well with one exception. The machine does not have a needle up/down button. The is not a show-stopper, except that it does not stop consistently in either the up or down position. Therefore, I constantly have to roll the the handwheel forward to pull the project from below the presser foot before cutting the thread. I would also prefer if the handle to raise the presser foot were turned 90 degrees to the right so it is easier to reach.

I love ❤️ my new Singer! Sews beautifully and I've had no troubles.

Easy to use. Very happy with this purchase. Better than my previous machine that kept jamming. I am a beginner user and so far have no problems.
