Wow - don't they bother to check the products before signing their name?! Glad the new machine works well for her :)
Good take on the challenge - TFS!

How nice she likes to sew! Hello Kitty stuff is much better. My dd years and years ago loved Hello Kitty stuff. Singer's real machines aren't that hot either.
Thats too bad...though singer in general isn't what it used to be. The last singer machine I owned that I liked was like...one model up from the old treadle machine, lol. Glad you found a good replacement.
So sad....
I ended up getting my DD a basic starter machine for Hanukkah this year (a "real" one) because all the kid ones were either $$$ for a kid one or ... THIS :) I found a very inexpensive Sears model and she loves it.
I agree, why would Singer do that? Shame on them. And good for you to understand and get something workable before she decides against sewing forever!!
I have one for scrapbooking - the Sew Crafty from Provocraft - that is made that way. It is ok for papercrafting but only makes a straight stitch and does not go backward. Not being a very good sewer, it works good enough for papercrafting.
things sure aren't made like they used to be. That's to bad that it doesn't work - it is a cute little machine. But I'm glad you found her a better one.
what Singer was thinking when they put their name on this product??? This was the "sewing machine" Santa left for my dd... It is now packaged back up and on its way back to the store because it is a PIECE OF JUNK!!! For anyone who knows anything about sewing... There is no bobbin on this machine!!! It is a one thread stitch which comes unravelled SOOOO easily and requires you to manually stitch and lock the threads in hopes that they won't come unravelled. I (pretty experienced sewer) couldn't get it to work at all. My dd started crying when I told her it would have to be returned, but she is happily sewing on the replacement Hello Kitty one (much more $$$, but worth it to avoid the Frustration!)
