Good machine, no directions
I like the machine. I wasn't thrilled with where the reverse knob is. I was very disappointed that no directions came with it. You have to go online. I don't always have access.

Singer Tradition
I purchased this from JoAnns on the recommendation of a sales associate. I used it once in the first 30 days to make sure it operated properly. I guess 15 minutes wasn't enough of a trial.
I began the project I purchased it for 3 months and 2 weeks after purchase. From the first stitch the white thread was turning black and it discolored my fabric. The stiches looked white and black. I took the bobbin out and inspected and it was operating fine, but there was grease in the core outside of the bobbin. This came out black when wiped with a cloth. I wiped and rethreaded and still the same. This occurred three more times until the bobbin started to jam and the thread was knotted. Then the tension became tight and I couldn't change it.
I've sewn for 40 years always on used machines and never had issues like I've experienced with this machine. I emailed and called Singer and they said I'm two weeks past the warranty - are you kidding me? I asked to speak to a manger and was promised a call back and haven't heard anything. The original email I rec'd instructed me on how to trouble shoot - basically thread the machine, etc. Please - I've done all that. There doesn't appear to be a service center anywhere in Florida. So, what to do now - toss it? What a huge disappointment and customer service is horrible. You all should stand by your machine and replace or something to make me whole. Should I not expect this to last more than 90 days? You'd think Singer would be better - but I guess not.

Easy machine!
I bought this Singer 2277 sewing machine about 2 weeks ago and just finished a couple projects. The machine is user friendly and is simple to use from start to finish. The auto threader is a lifesaver and there are 100 stitch applications to choose from with adjustable lengths and widths. The price is easy and affordable. I wish I would have bought this machine years ago! I already have more sewing projects lined up and I can't wait to get started!

Easy to use for all levels of experience.
I bought this brand for myself years ago, I still use it and very satisfied with it. I made my granddaughter's dresses on it.
When I noticed the very old Singer I had given my daughter was no longer working, I took her to Joann's and we got the same kind. It is simple and can do just about anything the bigger and more expensive ones can.
I highly recommend this machine for beginners and experienced people.

Simple and Great Sewing Machine
I received this as a Christmas gift from my husband. I set up was easy and it worked right away. Lots of tutorials on line to help with the learning curve. Highly recommend this machine for anyone but it is great for beginners.

so difficult
I never could imagine that a sewing machine could be this horrible to thread the bobbin and get this thing to sew normally. I am constantly struggling to keep the bobboin working and then fighting the machine to get teh thread thru again

Gift
We bought this for our 9 yr old granddaughter. I have a sewing machine to give her after she masters this one. I feel it’s important to start on a machine that works, does basic and will not frustrate her due to it being under powered.

SINGER 2277 Tradition Mechanical Sewing Machine
SINGER 2277 Tradition Mechanical Sewing Machine was my choice of sewing machines when my 58 year old Kenmore sewing machine stopped working during a project . The SINGER 2277 is easy to operate & works very smoothly. Even though the machine does not come with an instruction manual there are instructions for threading the machine & bobbins. I' m very happy with this machine & was able to finish all my Christmas gift projects without a problem. I'm so impressed with this machine that I even suggested to my neice as a gift for her 16 year old daughter.

Singer sewing machine
Love the sewing machine I bought. The only thing I don’t like is where the bobbin is - I like to see how much thread I have left.

Best Sewing Machine ever.
This sewing maching is great. My brother sewing machine up and died and i had committed to making a costume for our Christmas production. I read up on this Singer Machine and purchased ut at Joanns. I could not be happier. So glad this is the one I bought. It even threads the needle!

Returned
I was not happy with this machine at all. The foot pedal cord is too short; it reached the floor, but could not be placed in a position that would allow me to sew comfortably. I've been sewing most of my life, so two outstanding issues: 1) Winding the bobbin took me about 10 minutes, once the bobbin was in the bobbin case, it would not come out! I had to put the tip of my seam ripper into one of the holes on the bobbin to get it out. (I admit I have issues with my hands, but have never had this problem before.) The fly wheel got stuck once during the hour I was testing it. At that point, I was done with it, so packed it up and returned it.

To start it was impossible to get out of the Styrofoam and I immediately noticed the cords are too short. Pretty much everything on this machine can pitch fingers, the bobbin is put in the most inaccessible place possible, I still can't tell how to get the pressure foot up unless you're supposed to manually stick your fingers under it and lift it every time you want to...I don't know, sew? Nothing in the manual about it as far as I can tell. Because of the pressure foot situation, I can't really use it but I'm keeping it in hopes I can figure it out which is why I said two stars instead of one.

Do not like this machine. Bottom thread is terrible and part components are cheaply made. Wish I could return it!

Great sewing machine for beginners, small to medium projects and everyday home use.
Great sewing machine for beginners, and for small to medium sewing projects, or just everyday use. Easy to setup, and easy to understand directions for use. Easy thread guide on machine. So many useful tools provided with purchase. Overall 10/10 highly recommended for anyone looking to purchase a sewing machine.

Easy machine!
It works simply and well, although it’s louder than my last machine which I’d had for 30 years. Probably need to oil it but I’m surprised a new machine would need that. Otherwise it works great and I’m very pleased.

extension table
LOVE my machine but cannot find extension table for flat quilting. or even a large table to fit my machine. I have several machines All Singer and I am now moving into a flat surface to go faster. I have several tables to spread out my cloth, machine sits high or shakes from table I have now. Ready to upgrade in Florida :) Thank You Sandy

Disappointed
Although it worked to finish my project when my machine broke down, it frequently jammed and broke three needles in the first week! The needle threader does not work. The thread needs to be guided by hand to fill a bobbin or it develops big loose loops of thread hanging from it and cannot be used. This machine is adequate for simple sewing but I know I will struggle with it on future projects.
