Singer Confidence 7470

Pros
  • Computerized
  • 173 stitches
  • Included alphabet
  • Simple bobbin-loading
Cons
  • Heavy
  • Needle threading can be tricky

The Singer Confidence gets good reviews from intermediate sewers, who praise for its extensive array of features such as hand-look quilt stitches, special stretch stitches and especially its block-style alphabet for simple monogramming. Owners also praise the easy bobbin system and overall consistent sewing performance. Some owners like the needle threading but others complain it isn't that great. Most owners agree that this is a heavy machine. If you're on a budget, a less feature-laden but still excellent machine is the Brother CS6000i (*Est. $190), which is electronic but not computerized. And for the same money, the Brother PC-420 PRW Project Runway Limited Edition (*Est. $500) has more features, including 10 different buttonhole styles.

We didn't find professional reviews for the Singer Confidence 7470, but many owners weigh in at Joann.com and Amazon.com, giving feedback on features, performance, ease of use and long-term durability and reliability.
