Product Information

All settings are easily accessible and provide precise control to the operator, which is exactly what you want from a sewing machine. It is only a cover which sits on the top of the machine and allows you to access the handle of the machine to move it around. Speaking as a person from the UK, I've read a lot of good things about the Kenmore machines on this forum.

pounds, this isn't the lightest sewing machine on the market, although it's a whole lot lighter than the machines of yesteryear.i had originally planned on getting the Janome HD3000 but it isnt sold in the UK so does anyone know of/have experience with any alternatives. Having started sewing on a very simple Singer machine, I was over the moon when I upgraded to my Pfaff Ambition 630 3. The bobbin winder is hit and miss, I think this is due again to the positioning of the spool laying on it's side.

The 525S also has an auto-declutch bobbin winder and is supplied with a two speed foot controller and a hard cover. Personally, the act of sewing has completely changed my relationship with clothing and how I wear them. The top slider controls the width of the stitch, while the lower slider is used for adjusting the length. If you're working at a bar type height, or a table that is slightly taller than normal, the cord won’t be long enough.

Overall it is an outstanding machine for someone who needs a machine that can do really heavy duty work but also a machine that can do other work as well as regular hobby or home use.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or something needs to be adjusted on it, but it doesn't work.I’m needing something that is metal geared, can hold up to fairly thick leather, whilst still being effective and neat with silk chiffon, and that can be easily put away on a shelf and is fairly quiet as I will be in a dorm room for the first year. If there are several users (or potential users) in your family, this machine will make an excellent choice. You can also wipe the head clean with a soft dry cloth as required, or use a damp cloth whenever it's necessary.
