Singer Sewing Machine

I have a singer in 3500 trying to load the b2obbin can't get it then so I move one of the fasteners Fasteners of the housing the housing fell out I don't know how to get it back in can you show me a picture of the position?

The bobbin simply will not catch. Period. You can do everything you’re told and the bobbin will not catch no matter what. The machine is fine, average machine, but the bobbin mechanism is so terrible it’s just not worth it. It’s an old fashioned bobbin mechanism, just get a better machine.

I purchased this machine as a beginner and I really like it. I made a pair of pajama pants with a fun print. The sewing machine cover that came with it is a bit of joke, though. I don’t see why they even mentioned it, it’s like tissue paper.

I got this a few months ago and have started using it very regularly. Once you get the hang of it, the machine works well overall. However, the bobbin winder does not work. I can never wind a bobbin full, I need to stop at about 3 quarters or it will be too loose and get tangled. I’ve watched multiple videos and tried all the tricks and nothing works. Very disappointed as it is a feature that requires use regularly.

Having grown up in Germany, I held Singer in high regard. Their name evoked a sense of quality and reliability, almost synonymous with craftsmanship. So, naturally, I decided to purchase a Singer machine for my family. Imagine my shock—and disappointment—when the machine arrived in a dysfunctional state. It was so poorly constructed that we had no choice but to return it just hours after unboxing it. A brand I had trusted implicitly had failed spectacularly.

This is my second singer sewing machine. The first one lasted 40 years! It works very well. In a month of use I’ve already made 12 clothing items. Two thoughts about this machine:1) I do not like not having a booklet for the instructuon manual. I love that you’re saving trees, but this is one type of item when it’s really useful to have a tangible item in which to make notes. Which would help with item number 2) The instructions for how to make a buttonhole need to be re-written. There is no way I would have figured out to pull that magic handle down AND push it back without going to the video. No one could figure out how to write that?

This is a total piece of crap, do not buy. I have had this for over a year and I've spent more time fixing and completely rethreading this machine then I have actually used it to sew. I will be in the middle of a project, finish the piece I am working, take a break then when I comeback all of a sudden it's skipping stiches, breaking the thread or more often than not getting jammed which requires 5+ minutes to untangle and completely rethread all without it being touched. Don't be fooled by the "auto threader" either... because it's not. I spent the first 2 hours when I received this trying to figure out what I was doing wrong because the thread wouldn't go through the needle. What I quickly found was that not only do you have to have the needle raised to a very precise height that even if you are 1/100 of a turn of the knob off the thread grabber won't go through the needle, but my brand new machine came with the thread grabber bent so even if I did everything right it wouldn't go through. If all that isn't bad enough, did I mention it gets jammed constantly for no good reason? If you think this is user error I assure you it is not as I practically have all of the Youtube tutorials for the M3500 made by Singer themselves memorized bc I have watched them so many times wondering what I am doing wrong and when I have borrowed other peoples non-singer machines (I can't say which bc it's against review guidelines), I have had no issues.

I got this machine as a gift recently, when I pressed the presser foot to sew the speed is too fast even when i try to press it gently I can't get a continous slow sewing motion. I watched the videos by singer on YouTube for how to set up and get started sewing and I noticed their machine was running much slower and the could do a continuous slow motion. Now my machine sits in a box the corner because it way to fast and I can't get it adjusted please help!!!!!

I've been trying to return this machine for 2 weeks. I ordered this for its ease of use and what I received was a used machine. All I wanted was an exchange but I think this is going to be a refund only st this point.

I purchased this model because it has the self threading feature. It doesn’t work. Very disappointing
