Walmart price is best in town. I purchased this machine because all the children's sewing machines had such bad reviews. As described below my husband made a finger guard for my granddaughter. Great price for a child's sewing machine and actually works. Walmart is the only place that I found the purple machine. The machine successfully performed all the stitches as listed. However, the 3 sizes of straight stitches are about 1.5 to 2.5 size (small to slightly over regular size stitches.) In other words it does not make straight large or basting stitches. This may be a problem if you are sewing on paper for crafting. The small stitches may perforate the paper so that it easily tears. The machine: 1) sews slow, which is what I wanted for my grandchild 2) uses standard needles (Style 2020) – contacted Singer 3) uses Class 15 bobbins (easy to find) (3 included) – contacted Singer 4) uses regular size spools of thread 5) foot pedal is the size of a computer mouse 6) has 4 small rubber feet to help hold machine in place 7) adjustable upper thread tension 8) no “bobbin case” therefore, no bobbin tension adjustment 9) cannot adjust stitch length (other than the 3 choices of straight stitches) 10) cannot adjust stitch width. Does not have a finger guard for our granddaughter & could not find one for a low shank machine. My husband made one out of a large picture hanger (the type that are L shaped with a curl at the top and a small nail that goes through the hanger.) Used hole end to go around the shaft and attached it with the pressure foot screw. Cut off the excess around the shaft, bent the L section around the needle and shaft, and back at the front of the foot. Tilted it down which touched just inside the front edge of the foot . Then bent end of L back slightly from the front edge of the foot to allow thread to pass under it.
i'm sorry guys, but i love this machine! i bought this little machine to make some tube sock rice warmers for my cat rescuer friend. i also needed to make fleece covers for the rice filled socks so she could wash them. well, i thought i'd try this little machine. i haven't had a BIT of trouble out of it. ok, the reverse stitch button doesn't work but i can live with that. otherwise, i haven't had any trouble from it. i LOVE the fact that it runs on batteries and those last a long time. i've made about 20 of the tube sock warmers plus covers, and have also made a couple of bigger items along the same line. the only problem i had was the sewing the tops of the tube socks. it ate the material. so i just put a piece of paper over the sock and sewed it through the paper. no drama! i also was able to rewind the bobbin with no drama either. everything has been smooth and has worked great. i can even take it to mom and dad's and simply set it on the kitchen table and mend up some of their clothing! i simply love this machine! i'm sorry everyone has had such trouble with theirs, but i wouldn't trade the little guy for the world! i know it won't last forever, but for the price, i'm surprised i've made as many of these items as i have. i have a feeling i'll be able to make a whole bunch more as well! :-D
I have no experience with sewing machines, so I wanted to start with something small.. Before buying it, I did my research and I was surprised to see that many people had problems with this product. So I decided to take the risk, and I'm glad I did it. So far I love it, This little cutie works wonderful, so far I have fix the hem on 4 jeans and 3 skirts.. and thats with no previous sewing experience.
I read a ton of reviews on this little purple masterpiece before buying it and I was skeptical b/c of some of the bad reviews. I was happy to find out that these reviews were wrong. I have had that machine for almost a year now and it's time for me to step it up into the big leagues with a more expensive machine. This thing is PERFECT for beginners or simple sew jobs. I used it for stretch cotton leg warmers and it worked like a charm every time. The wheel on the side does fall off a lot but how hard is it to put it back on? EASY! The bottom line is that you are paying UNDER $50 for a sewing machine... don't expect the thing to make you a couture dress for fashion week.. but, you can expect it to fix any wardrobe malfunctions, small projects, sew together fabric and fulfill all your simple sewing needs. I never write reviews but I had to for this one. If you're looking to get into sewing or have some clothes at home that need repair.. this is the way to go! I first bought a Singer hand-held sewing machine and instantly took it back the next day b/c it fell apart in my hands... but this one.... this one was great to get me started! I hope this helps!! Happy Crafting!
First off, it's purple! My granddaughter loves it. It is a real sewing machine, not a chain-lock one.. A foot pedal is included BUT don't expect it to last. Luckily there is a switch on the machine to run it but it can get tricky when you have to reverse the stitch. My Granddaughter (she's 5 yrs old) and I (sewing for 35 yrs) had a great day sewing with this and will have many more...
The first machine I bought was amazing! I was thoroughly surprised what a great machine this is! I didn't use it for just simple sewing. I made 2 full gowns, boning and all, a full sized quilt, and much more... unfortunately, I pushed it further than anyone should push ANY sewing machine because I was desperate and pressed for time and killed it. Sad that I had ruined a good thing, I bought a new one expecting to pick up where I left off. I was wrong. The second machine I bought is TERRIBLE!!! Nothing but frustration. I don't understand how one machine can be so fantastic and another of the same kind be so awful. The thread cutter is even dull on this one... I said I would recommend it because maybe you will get one of the great ones... lol.
I bought this nice looking sewing machine for home stuff, nothing fancy. Unfortunatelly, there's somehting wrong with the timing, basically it is very fragile. I had it replaced and guess what, it did it again! Now, I can't sew and I can't change it. It was good while it lasted. Check for the problem, it is all over the Internet.
it is a piece of junk..it looks cute but as far as sowing , it is really bad.. it stoped working right after i started working on it..it is not sowing anymore.. i will return it back tomorrow and get the $100 one.. don't waste ur money plz.
My husband bought me one of these for a gift. I was very excited and opened it right away to test it out. Well every other stitch it stopped working, so we took it back and exchanged it, no problem right?... not I opened the SECOND machine and started to use it and it won't stitch. And yes I know how to sew, and have been for 10+ years. So do no buy
As soon as I saw it I had to investigate. While the bright purple was very attentiongetting the pixie turned out to be a dud when i got it home. I played with the display model in the store. Seemed very easy to thread, the way to go is on the machine itself. The bobbin case was very accesible and it had a small storage drawer. It was not plugged in, so i could not test it out on the sampler that comes with the machine. As soon as i got it home i plugged it all in, threaded and had the bobbin in the appropriate place and tried to sew through the sampler that came with it. At first it would sew the thread into the cloth, but it would easily pull out because the needle wasnt picking up the bobbin thread. Also it was making a horrible grating sound as the needle would go all the way down. Like it was hitting something as it went down. I fussed with it for hours before i threw in the towel and took it back the next day. i guess you get what you pay for.
