Whatever model you decide on, you'll want these features: If you have a limited budget, a well-cared-for vintage machine is a great solution!
Plan to spend at least $200 for a decent new machine. Now you’re in almost $200 on a machine that is not your friend. It costs $80 to have a machine tuned up/serviced. It has the absolute cheapest parts that won’t last and it is so clunky that it makes you feel like you’re constantly doing something wrong. This advice is based on my (and my colleagues) experience with countless models of sewing machines, test driving new models and drying the tears of students stuck with "bargain" machines.Ī lower-end $90 new machine is always trouble.
I have absolutely nothing to gain financially from recommending certain models or steering you away from others. But there are still some new machines that are high quality, affordable and built to last. In general, this is not the golden age of well-built, reliable machines and electronics.
