Singer 7462 is a best buy!!!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
For the new or experienced sewer, this is a wonderful electronic machine with great features, but not a huge price. Better quality than the Singer 7442 (made for the discount market)–pay the extra $20.00 for the 7462 and get a much better quality sewing machine. I still have my Singer 237 from the late 1960’s, and I plan to keep the new Singer 7462 machine for 30 years–or until my eyes or body give out!!! Currently, the machine can be purchased on EBAY for $199.00 total with no shipping costs and no taxes through June 30, 2006. During June, the Singer 7462 comes with a free $40.00 quilting package of special sewing feet and attachments.

Breaks after a few months!
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
i’ve had this machine for about 7 months, and i’ve had tons of problems with birdnesting and the bobbin.
the “auto-tension” feature is hardly automatic. the “auto” setting is only good for 2 layers of light- to moderate-weight fabrics. forget trying to sew boucle or more than 2 layers of denim with this machine. stick to broadcloth and thinner denims. of course, you can only sew these fabrics if the bobbin works.
the bobbin cradle (where you lay the top-loading bobbin) broke yesterday afternoon, and now i’ve gotta buy a replacement. i was sewing two layers of boucle with mild thread, and the machine jammed. i thought, “well, that’s normal for this machine,” and went about un-jamming it. when i went back to sew, it did it again, something that hardly happens for another 10 minutes. after a disassembly of the bobbin area, i determined a piece on the bobbin cradle had broken off. “great,” i thought, “now i need to buy a replacement cradle.”
this machine is not worth the money. if you want something that breaks, go with a lesser model and save some money. replacement parts aren’t cheap on this, either, since it’s a relatively new model. my ‘78 Singer tears through thicker fabrics with light and heavy threads like nobody’s business, but this newer model breaks its own parts within 7 months of being set up. my advice: stay away from Model 7462.

disappointed customer
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
I Ordered singer sewing machine 7462 and recieved 7444. I contacted the retailer who informed me they did not have 7462 available and instead sent me the upgade. No matter how hard I tried, I could not see how 7444 was an upgrade to 7462.

It’s okay
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I purchased this sewing machine almost 2 years ago. At the time I could not find any helpful reviews online and so purchased it since I needed a new, good sewing machine.
It has served it’s purpose. It sews. But I have never had success with any of the decorative stitches. They don’t come out the way they are supposed to and so I dont do them (which is bad because one of the features is all the stitches). It is loud and clunky. No amount of cleaning and oiling will change that. One annoying thing is if you do take your foot off the presser foot and want to continue sewing sometimes it won’t allow you to continue so you have to press it again.
Also sometimes I have major problems changing the stitch length/width. I’ll have to slide it back and forth a few times before it registers and beeps.

could be better…lots better

After reading a lot of on line reviews, I got this machine in September 2007. Funny that at the time I could hardly find many negative reviews and the ones I did find were people who had a beef with Singer or a weird fluke that made their machine break. So I took the plunge. I’d had another Singer that lasted a good 10 years with sporadic use. I’m certainly no seamstress. This was more or less for easy projects and simple sewing. It was easy to get started on the machine. The buttons for the various stitches are great. The horizontal placement of the thread seemed like a great idea. The instruction book was clear. It is easy to perform maintenance on the machine as the screws are easily accessible. That’s about where my joy ends and my complaints begin.
First, the lighting stinks. Second, it’s LOUD. If you get to pumping away at a long line of stitching, it’s like a jackhammer. Then there’s the godforsaken foot pedal. Irritating? You bet! It seems to either go slow or super fast and is clunky and unnatural. I have to use a bare foot to be able to grasp it with my toes to massage it to go a decent speed without jerking into super speed. Trying to get it to maintain a comfortable speed is hard work. If you step on the pedal and remove your foot, and then try to step on it again again right away, the pedal fails to work at all if you haven’t allowed the needle unit to stop. It can be super annoying.
The last complaint I will voice is the fact that I am having one heck of a time getting thread that agrees with the machine. Yes, I’ve cleaned the machine. Yes, I’ve oiled the machine. Yes, I’ve adjusted the tension up or down. Yes, I’ve changed needles…bought good thread…am using “Singer” products…sacrificed a goat and did a rain dance…but the thread is forever clumping around the top of the needle and snapping off. No matter what I do thus far, I can’t seem to solve that problem.
All in all, I am frustrated with this machine. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. You know that saying “you get what you pay for”? Well, if only that were true in this case! I haven’t even gotten what I paid for!
