Singer 6800C Heavy Duty Sewing Machine

I really liked this machine! It was easy to use and the automatic thread snip + tie off features were great for me. I’ve only had the machine for a few months when the foot control stopped working. It would work here and there but then stopped. Seems like the socket is loose and messing with the connection. I thought, oh well I’ll just take it in for service under warranty since it’s 4 months old. I was wrong, the warranty is not so hassle free as advertised. You have to find a dealer & jump through hoops to prove purchase. I’m new to sewing and this was very sad for me so now I’m looking for a new machine because most repair shops charge 125+ even for a simple fix and have crazy long repair times. If this would have happened after a few years of owning, u would highly recommend this machine but since it is so new, I fear it’s an indication of machine quality lacking.

I just put this machine through the ultimate test. I made one of my multi layer denim handbags with it. It sewed beautifully. It's a keeper

Would be 5 but owner manual. If you want one you have to except cookies, why. I just want l /need a sewing, if i want more ill fix the web site again.

Had this machine for nearly 9 years. I sew with it daily, from crafts to clothes and quilting. It has handled every challenge like a pro. The only issue had so far is the thread guard on the take up lever, it allows the thread to jump track when stitching at the highest speed .

I waited so long to finally have my dream sewing machine. I love the ease of going from heavy to light fabrics. I’ve seen garments, crafts and all with ease. My only wish is that they t came with manual. Some of us are old school and like paper manuals.

Love the machine. The motor is powerful enough to sew through all the layers of a quilt. The buttonholes are consistent. Stitch length is even. It is intuitive to use. A great value for the price and a joy to use.

Met all of my expectations & more.

I bought this a few months ago. Amazing machine

I bought the Singer HD 6800C sewing machine for myself for Christmas. I wanted to buy this machine during the COVID shut down when my old machine broke but it was sold out. I ended up buying a Ja**me HD machine. It's a good machine for basic items but I needed one that could handle denim and also have a lot of stitches without having to hook up to a computer. This machine does that and more. It's super easy to use, seems to be very well built and the instructions are easy to follow. After having it for a month now, I would recommend. It sews really good and is definitely user friendly. The only thing I would say Singer could improve is to include a user manual. That is not included. It must be downloaded on the computer and printed off. No big deal but come on, included the manual.

I was attracted to the 6800c because of its advanced features. I’ll never use 98% of the programmed stitches. However, I love the programmable needle up/down feature. Also the automated thread cutter and stitch knot. Makes securing the beginning and ending of a stitch line so easy. The motor is powerful and pressed through leather and heavy material.

Very happy with my 6800C. Quick to learn how to use and it is able to handle all the different materials (cotton, denim in multiple layers) easily.

good quality

I am not disappointed! It is everything it appears to be in the add. Thanks for continuing to produce a reliable product as I remember my mother’s Singer when I was a little girl in 1965.

I am very happy with my purchase (HD6800C). I bought this model because it has the stitch speed option and I just love it! I love the price for what I get and can only say one thing I did not like is the color, sorry but wished it came in the new black. Everything else I think is great!

This is my 2nd sewing machine and my 2nd singer sewing machine. I am enjoying it very much. It has a lot of bells and whistles compared to my singer from 30 yrs ago and I'm putting it to the test. I feel this heavy duty machine will more than fill my needs of what I put my older machine through, Mardi Gras costumes, dance recital costumes, etc. Still getting used to it, but love it so far. Wouldn't trust any other brand.

I bought this machine for my daughter. I have had this same model for about 4 years and I love it! It’s a great machine.

It is a decent machine especially with all the stitch settings allowing for many different options to be used like the overcast stitch. However, this machine is very inconsistent since the bobbin is plastic and almost every time I sew I have to constantly test the stitches for about 10-20 minutes which is not the case for machines with metal bobbins and adjustable bobbin cases. Also, if you lose the foot pedal, you are done for as singer does not provide any replacements on the sight. I’ve bought the one they offer on the site and it turned out not being compatible with my machine even though they had the same input. Overall, if you’re one who sees a variety of projects, get a different machine. If you do simple things like intricate designs, this machine is good. If you’re a beginner, get a machine with a metal bobbin case, the brand should not matter as those are more effective and consistent in general.

Purchased a week ago because of the auto knot and cut the thread, while most of the functions I’ve used so far are good,I’m having issues with the very functions that made me purchase the machine. The auto thread cutter makes a very loud sound, cuts the thread intermittently and the fabric gets hung up in the bobbin compartment, I’m really not happy with what’s happening, I’ve also had issues with the tension…WOW…I have always depended on Singer but I’m not happy😞

Perfect machine for what we do.

I was looking for a machine to sew denim with ease. This machine does just that. It also sews through quilt sandwiches with grace and ease. The features are what makes the machine. I really like the drop feed and the tie off feature.
