Now....before anyone says anything, I bought this machine with my own money, and zero sponsorships from Singer sewing company.
I only heard about the pitfalls of this machine after I bought it, and only mentioned a few things in the video as to why I bought it.
Your machine may be better than this one, but most modern domestic machines thread in the same way, which is what I'm trying to showcase, not this specific brand and model.
In fact, you'll notice that I semi de-badged this machine.
With that said, I think some of you out there may find this video helpful, with even non-Singer branded machines.
As for reviews, you know a sewing machine is sturdy by the feel and "drive" of it in a way. This specific make and model feels about as cheaply made as the Singer Esteem II that was given to me, that you may have seen in other videos.
I also have a Singer branded serger that "does the job"
However, if I had the space, and money to get industrial machines, I probably would, but being in an apartment, I can't afford that kind of space, so home sewing machines will have to do.
The one that really feels the most sturdy, is my vintage 1937 Singer 99k machine. It still needs a bit of repair, and looking at the springs to get the tension discs to de-tension when I lift the presser foot, but it still works all the same.
