6800C Heavy Duty Sewing Machine
Product details
Web ID: 19775898Not so heavy duty
I've tried the machine on a number of projects, but when it came down to doing a commission to re upholster 4 chairs, it failed. The material was vinyl and it could handle the seams, but when it came to the top stitching the stitches were inconsistent. The needle would vibrate wildly at the extra layer and catch in loops on yhe bottom, as I tried to remove the knots at the bobbin, it took off on it's own sewing without touching the foot. I'm lucky it didn't sew through my finger. The customer was not pleased with the finish on the tops stitching. I removed it several times & re-sewed it costing lots of extra time. I may not get paid for all that work because of this. Yes, I adjusted the tension & ran a test on scrap vinyl. I was sent home with 2 of the chairs to re-do again. I'm very disappointed with this machine.

Good Machine but Foot Control Issues
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

Serious work force
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 .

Go from light to heavy seeing with ease
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.

Thrilled to be back with Singer
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.
