Singer 3323S Talent Review

pros

  • Feature rich for a basic mechanical.
  • Storage for the included feet is well designed and convenient.
  • One Amazon reviewer praised the manual!

cons

  • Not clear how well it does on denim and really heavy duty jobs.
  • Foot pedal is light weight and not easy to adjust speed.

bottomline
This machine is pretty,so it also makes a great gift. The Talent comes packed with all the basics plus some very nice extra features and accessories. For under $200, this model is perfect for both beginners and those wanting to expand from basics to some fancier functions. Since it's mechanical, there is no chip to burn out and no LCD to go blank. The Talent is one Singer's workhorse mechanical sewing machines.

It's pretty. A walking foot with an edge cutter foot is included, for overcasting and trimming seams. One Amazon reviewer praised the manual. Not even Singer usually has good user manuals. Very steady even stitching.

alert Dislikes

There are differing reports about how well the machine does on multiple layers of denim and other heavy duty jobs. Other than that, there isn't much to dislike about this machine.

Summary

A basic machine with more options than the 1409 Promise, including 1-hole buttonhole function and top drop-in bobbin. It's rare to find a 1-hole buttonhole function on a basic mechanical machine. If you want a good mechanical machine with more than just the absolute basics but not tons of options you'll never use, this one is a top choice.
