Easy to use once you get to see what this machine can do. However, the manual which comes with the machine, does not really answer any general questions. For instance, when I was ready to sew a sample fabric, I noticed that the needle was positioned to my left instead of in the middle. (The machine has a dial to set the needle position at either left, middle or right) Referring to the manual did not help me with how to return the needle position to middle. I had the stitch dialed in for "normal" stitch thinking that the position would move, but it did not. However, when I changed the dial to make another stitch, the needle position finally moved for that specific stitch. Another concern I have is what stitch I'm to use for overlocking and the manual does not answer that question either. Therefore, I am confused on the machine's operation so I'm just sewing my projects where the needle position sits, on the left side. Other than that, the machine works great! Read full review

I truly hesitate to write reviews at all, especially negative, but.... this machine (4411,4423, etc.) all seem to have the same problem, the plastic parts in the bobbin case will not hold up to the speed and power of this machine... it's quite sad as the speed and power are wonderful... it will go through anything... even heavy leather, but what good is it if I have to dissect the bobbin case every hour to nurse the machine into working again??? very sad ... I have been on the phone to Singer....to no avail... I switched to Janome.

I had purchased a Singer Curvy back in March and had nthing but trouble with it. The upper tension was verey, very difficult to adjust. It had to be adjusted every time I sat down to sew, even on the same project. Singer company thought the timing might have been off as well...on a brand new machine? So I sent it back and started searching for another "simpler" machine. I have found it in the Singer 4423. It sewed beautifully the very first time. It is a fairly heavy machine and sems pretty durable. The threading of the upper thread makes it pretty obvious that the thread is in correctly...no sawing the thread through the tension discs here. I love that I can drop the feed dogs on this machine. I am not an industrial sewer but I am looking forward to having many hassle free projects in the coming years. I did find it cheaper on sale after it arrived but I am content.Read full review

Overall, I am happy with this machine. Some days I seem to be plagued with problems, others not so much. The needle threader seems to have gotten out of whack, and only works some times. I have had several bobbin jams for some reason, that I do not understand. It definitely seems like it is built ruggedly, and has many nice features.

Some parts of the sewing machine were not assembled properly, so I had to partially take it apart and reassemble it before using the machine. Otherwise, everything came nicely. All accessories were in tact, and the seller was nice enough to send two bobbins charged with white thread. The machine itself is very powerful, and works well with multiple layers of knits.
