Sew with Confidence:
After reading all the reviews here, I decided to buy the Singer Confidence 7470. I am new at sewing, yet I took a risk on a pricey machine. I'm so glad I did. I love it. It gives me great confidence (no pun intended) in my ability to sew. I did have a slight problem: not being able to get the feed dog back up again.

love this machine!:
I love this machine! The drop-in bobbin is easy and the decorative stitches are fun. Great value.
I like it!:
I have had this machine for about a month. I have made a quilt, 4 shirts, and 3 sets of curtains with it. I am a sewing novice. I spent some time on my mother's machine as a kid, it was unfortunate as it broke a lot, and now I'm really learning how to do it through quilting and sewing classes. Pros:

Drop in bobbin! I will never go back.
Easy to select stitches. (however,do read the manual before doing
twin needle work!)
