SINGER® Simple™ 3223Y Sewing Machine, Yellow Color

I got this little machine for my 10 year old granddaughter and it has been great. Just the right size for her to learn how to sew. It's very easy to thread.

This is my first very own sewing machine and the directions were easy to follow and the machine even easier to use. I only had an issue figuring out how to set up the bobbin but i got it within minutes thanks to the Singer Youtube.com tutorials. I am extremely happy with this purchase.

I bought this Singer sewing machine three weeks ago, and since then I have sewn a button-front shirt, altered a pair of khakis and a pair of jeans (including sewing through a thick double-folded hem), and sewn three T-shirts. This Singer performed flawlessly on all these projects, and is so easy to use. I much prefer it to computerized sewing machines, with all their beeping and losing all your stitch settings if you have to turn off the machine for awhile. I like that this Singer Simple 3223 uses a standard Class 15 bobbin, which is very easy to find in stores. I think it's easy to thread--I don't need an automatic needle threader. I like the wide variety of 23 stitches on the machine and the automatic buttonholer. I like that it came with with a zipper foot, buttonhole foot, and button sewing foot. I do wish that it had come with an extra spool pin for twin needle sewing, but I made one from a wooden dowel, so that's okay. The machine was a very good value, and does everything I need in a sewing machine which is mostly sewing clothes.

My 8 year old daughter seemed to pick up how to use this sewing machine very easily. She absolutely loves it and uses it a lot.

After years without sewing i had to practically learn how to sew again. This machine was so different it actually was hard to get going. My old model was a Singer about 1965 and for me was a snap. I had a hard time getting everything to work and if it had not been for the video that came with it i would probably have taken it back. Once I got it going it was OK. The threading of the needle was hard to get right but a good idea since I'm much older with not as sharp sight as years ago.
