- Can this cheap mini sewing machine sew through 8 layers of denim? It has 12 stitches, button hole foot, and can backstitch. Is it worth $50? Here are my first impressions on this little sewing machine.

LET ME TELL YOU GIRL !! I BOUGHT A SEWING MACHINE FOR 20 BUCKS AT A YARD SALE AND TOOK IT TO GET SERVICED AND OILED AND THE SERVICE MAN TOLD ME I ACTUALLY GOT A 200 DOLLAR SEWING MACHINE THAT WILL DO EVERYTHING AND ITS HEAVY DUTY !! I WAS TICKLED I GOT MORE THAN I PAID FOR !!
That's awesome!! I live for stories like this!
I always think used is the way to go with a small budget. Preferably used & vintage. You get a lot more bang for your buck.
@@lestranged RIGHT!! AND I NEEDED A NEW SEWING MACHINEBUT DIDNTWANT TO SPEND THE HIGH PRICE AND GLAD I FOUND THIS ONE LOL
how much do u pay to service n oil n cleaning ? a lady friend at my volunteer place did give me her grandmother old vintage kenmore machine too. i did clean it n took what i know n could but am so lose with oiling it as no user manual n i search online n no infor of the same model to be found... so just wondering how much u pay?
Hi, my needle broke, do you know the name and size so I can order more please? I’m struggling to find it
I have the same machine and same color I have made a few clothing and many other things using this machine.
That's great to know. Thanks! 👍🏽
@Beverly Martin Official ... would you suggest trying to sew faux leather with this machine? Have you tried it before?
@@pansycole2112 I haven't yet tried it with this machine but I do plan on it, in the next few weeks.
@@pansycole2112 I’m a beginning, and I’ve never used a sewing machine.... would this be a good one to get
@@joannamcneil18 I have a machine in storage on never used it. I wouldn't be able to help you with that answer.
I have this sewing since 2 years. I appreciate it 👍. It's very simple to use.
ummm excuse me. can it sew learher too??
Is good and worth it please
@@sakurahuntress no.
Hey! Do you still have it? it functions??
It's in my shopping cart and I think I'm ready to just take the leap! Oh and I've never even touched a sewing machine in my life.. 🤣
You can do it! 👍🏾
How are you doing with it? I’m considering this one.
How did it go
This is a good demonstration and and you covered every thing that is on that machine. I appreciate you. Our young girls and boys need to know that there is a product that they can use and they will feel like a grown-up! Good job!
Thank you!! 😊💕
This is so awesome. A mini version that's affordable and actually works
I need a sewing machine that is not too heavy because I am disabled. In the last few years, I've lost a lot of strength (I have Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy) so my standard-sized sewing machines have become near impossible for me to carry from the closet to the table, etc. I have a lot of experience sewing, and so am not in need of a "beginner" sewing machine, but for light-duty sewing - I think this could work for me. I clicked the link and saw that there are quite a few of these same models being sold by different sellers under different brand names - each one with sometimes drastic differences in feedback ratings. This one has only one review and it's one star (it says they think they got a defective one). But your review here makes me feel like it would be worth trying - and I worry about risking the purchase of any of the others. I appreciate this review and going thru what this machine is and is not capable of - thanks!
Thank you for including a strength test! I've had much more expensive machines that couldn't handle that much denim. Exactly what I needed to know :)
I bought my sewing machine on the goodwill website, paid 20$ for the actual machine and 30$ for the delivery (because it's very heavy), but honestly i'm so happy i went with a good proper used machine rather than try to buy a new one. the one i got is a old nelco machine, it's made all out of metal, it's in really good condition other than needing a clean and stuff, and i've been learning how to sew on it with so much pleasure! love it so much, it's made in japan and has all the things i need! definitely an affordable option for someone who wants a heavier duty machine
I love how you teach! I'm in my 50's and have not sewn since high school when my mom made me make all my jumpers for cheerleading camp... Ha... long time ago. I'm thinking this will be great for me to re-learn on and learn how to do alterations. :) Thanks!
Thank you!! 😊 I'm so glad it was helpful!
Jules good luck. U got this
just wanted to get back into light sewing again and you made my day I put this sewing machine in my cart and enjoyed your lesson thanks
Your review was precisely what I needed to decide if I was going to get one of these, thank you so much!!!
I just bought this little machine to take to our home overseas. It is just what I needed. Mine came with dressmakers shears, and a sewing kit as well as the button hole foot and threads that you showed. It was only $69 Canadian and seems to be well worth the money. Thanks for doing a critique.
Hi, my needle broke, do you know the name and size so I can order more please? I’m struggling to find it
@@bluea4052 You can buy any needle. Even Walmart sells them. A universal needle or a 14 would be good.
Thank youuu so much for this, especially for breaking down the stitch settings! Super helpful for sewing machine beginners like myself ❤️ I just got the same machine :D
Its always good to see a review on things Angelina ! I'm sure some will find this machine useful to them, thanks for sharing.
I bought that machine a few months ago. I always take this to our caravan holidays and even when my adult children needs help with sewing in their own homes. It works with all the presserfoot i bought as well. It does denim and even light fabrics for stores without problems. It's one of my 5 sewingmachines and i love "sewing to go". Love seeing your vid's, greetings from germany
That's really great to know! Thanks!
I like this 1 most out of all the ones you’ve tried so far! 💕 thanks for trying this for us
I'm a big DIY person and need to sew some moving blankets to felt for acoustic properties to make a curtain. Just watching a few of your videos I'm hooked and subscribed!
Am so excited happy now my mam getting me this sewing machine for my birthday next Thursday I love custom my clothes and making face coverings
Love it! I didn't even think that far ahead!
Thank you for this. I know all this information you're presenting on various products helps a lot of people! :)
I just ordered one from Amazon on sale for $39. I actually have a normal sized Brother sewing machine at home but I go away with the family every summer and I find myself missing to sew at least a few times and I do have a little crafts room out there. This is going to be perfect!! Thank you so much for posting this demo.
As always, you are HONEST! I love the content of this video and I like this little machine too. I liked how you tried doing the button hole, yet would've loved to have seen the zigzag stitches however I won't complain. CONGRATULATIONS again! You made my morning so far! Can't wait to see the next episode!!💗💗
Thanks so much!! 😁💕
Thank you for Sharing your video. It is very helpful to me with sewing that kind of material.
it has a thread cutter, look! 4:32 thank you for video, i decided to buy this one.
Thanks. Great video. I just bought this machine and I had no idea ‼️😁
ok. i'll go click the buy button now! Thanks!!
I am so glad it was a yes from a professional because I am a beginner with that machine. lol.
Thank you so much for these videos. I love your channel 💜🙏🏽
that is perfect for a child. Then when the child wants to learn more you can get a bigger yet simple machine..then if they continue give em a bigger one. :)
This could work for me starting out getting repairs and basic DIY done.
Thank you for this review❤️ you helped a lot. This is my first sewing machine ever😊
Thanks for your reviews. Very informative. You rock!
I love the mini sewing machine I have one of the other purple ones you got
Thank you for this review! It's so nice to find people taking a serious look at these mini machines, and giving them a genuine test and review.
I've been considering the possibility of looking into something like this (I've seen little mini sewing machines at my local 99-Cent&More store, and got curious), because I'm in a tiny flat with not much room to keep a sewing machine, but my hand-stitching is so terrible I actively avoid even supposedly simple things like hemming. I think this might be just the right size for someone in my circumstances, doing the basic things I'd need it to do.
Miss Angelina, Thank You Very Much.
Yeah girrrl you got my machine! It really is the easiest machine and it gets the job done it could do some heavy duty "****!" 😂 PG! You know what I mean! I just learned how to thread the bobbin and how to thread the machine. The one thing that I don't understand is when you turn the on switch there is no way for it to stop selling except for turning it off so the foot pedal is definitely the way to go! Oh my goodness that's a thread cutter! 🤯🧐😄
Great video & love your energy. Wanting to make some faux leather gloves so was really good to see you try this on layers of denim so I'm sure it would work on faux leather. Been looking at the cheaper mini machines but think I'd rather pay a bit more to have the reverse feature & the different stitch patterns is a plus 👍
I've only ever hand stitched & was overwhelmed by choices AND very limited budget! I appreciate all your info so much!
I'm looking to repurpose DIYs for my small kids (low or no cost) clothing, bedding, toys, etc. Any ideas, resources, tips are so welcome. Thanks!
Finally saw your video using that sewing machine with denim jeans
Thank you so much you helped me to make a Decision
I've been looking through so many videos about this machine and yours finally gave me some answers. I was pretty frustrated with the fact that only the front part of the seam looks good and I thought maybe I was doing something wrong. Because I've tried every tension number on that wheel and it still looked off.
At least now I know that I'm not doing anything wrong and it's just the machine... Which kind of sucks. Because I'm usually sewing on lighter material, not jeans. And it makes things much more complicated because I have to sew them with the nice looking stitch up...
If you have a tip for that, I'd love to hear it.
Thanks for the information. I actually got this for sewing on paper. Haven't tried it yet. Got this machine for 29.95 @Aldi
OMGGGG I BOUGHT THIS SEWING MACHINE FOR MY BIRTHDAY GIFT AND MY GRANDMOTHER JUST GIVE ME HER VINTAGE SEWING MACHINE!!! HER SEWING MACHINE WORKS VERY WELL THAN MY SEWING MACHINE;)
Yes, vintage machines are so good!
Terrific overview. So far, I am loving my baby sewing machine. I can pick it up with one finger!
are you satisfied with this machine? any major problems? thank you.
@@bojankojic108 Yes, so long as I am not expecting it to be a solid more expensive machine. For instance, only a small spool of thread can be fitted in the spool holder.
@@Hadassah28 thank you for fast and good reply 🙏
To me light sewing. I didn't have the machine long, because I sew a lot and thick material. It's nice for beginners. This machine was a backup machine.
i hope you'll have a mini series using just budget sewing machines
very helpful miss
I just spent $50 to put a Singer 6600c (I think that's the right number) on layaway. But, I think that was the best way for me to go. I'm not a novice, just trying to get back into sewing.
Recommendations for beginners ❤❤
❤
I'll stick to my good old pfaff. Agree with better finding a second hand one but this one does look cute
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this one, I got the same thing for my T-Shirt branding tag stitches. By the way for the button Hole making thing (track 7:42), I would help a lot if you change the Presser Foot to the one included in the package (The plastic Presser foot?), it's for the button hole template so that your button hole will be perfectly straight.
i never got one as l buy mine used n i think the girl sold me 20$ cause she lose that foot n the top thread cover cup too but that do not have big impact to my sewing ... i diy a top thread cover from a contact lenses cap i keep n burn a hole in the middle so i can put it into the top thread spool n work perfectly
@@purplelavender3618 thanks for the reply. glad to know that. As long as it's working fine, it's still a great machine over-all.
@@FreakyChumy yep totally true
Yes I've got this machine and wasn't sure what stitches 5 and 6 were for, thank you.
Looks like blind hem
Thank you.
Thank you
I just ordered this from Amazon as a gift for my non sewing daughter in law who has expressed a desire to learn. I'm going to try it out before I gift it to her. But one thing. This does have a buttonhole foot. So why not try it with that foot? Honestly I have 2 other machines with fancy stitches and I never use those stitches. EVer. So this has all you need really. If I like this I'm getting one for myself. Easier to lift and move around. Thank you for your video.
Just ordered it thank you
How is it
Just got one from Poshmark for $27. Thank you the great video. Subscribed 🙂
Welcome to the BlueprintDIY family! 🤗
thank you... I just want a little machine for craft projects and to go to a sewing club. I see ukuleles in the background; strum us a tune. I play ukulele, just a beginner. I have all of the different sized Ukes, baritone is my fav.
Good!
I am impressed with that thing…it does deliver a lot for 50 bucks. Is a used workhorse preferable? Depends. It’s always a gamble.
I would like to know how it works on sheer curtain material and cotton for masks.
Many thanks for the video. I have just purchased this item. I am using stitch type 1. However, not finding the stitch tight enough. Any suggestions? Is this a thing to do with tension? Currently using tension 4.
I just bought that for only 8 dollars here in philliphines😁👌
thanks for the review. how do you think this machine would handle like veil material?
Thank you so much for your video. I’ve been wanting so bad to purchase a sewing machine to make some simple items (like Kimonos and various types of vests); I didn’t know where to start, and It’s been a long time since I used a sewing machine (high school over 20 yrs ago). Also, my main concern was how to thread /use the bobbin😓😬. I think I’m going to tackle it and purchase that mini machine before I get a more expensive one. Thank you so much 😊 for sharing, I I just started watching your videos as of yesterday, after I saw you on TV. I cannot wait to see your another videos😄💫. I like how you speak in the video like you talking to me and let me know I can do this 😏 💪🏾Thank you thank you thank you. Peace & happiness to you and & your family.👋🏽🙏🏽
Hi Linda! 👋🏽 Welcome to the BlueprintDIY family! 🤗💕 I'm so glad that you're going to get back into sewing. And YES you can do this! I took a 10 year break myself, but it's been really fun getting back into it.
Girl! No! You need to start at a thrift store! $20 make sure it has the machine( duhh) a foot pedal , a power cord, the bobbin has a cover plate, and inside has the thing you put the bobbin into before you put it in the machine, make sure the machine is holding a needle or has a spot for it, and has a presser foot. Don’t waste your money on that tiny thing. I lost muy baby lock I scored on Craig’s list and wanted another machine, and my grandma bought me an old banger and clanker( sounds like an old steam train) from the thrift store. At first I thought “ This will do until I can buy a newer nicer machine” and then I took in an old pair of jeans that were too big and realized; it blasted threw close to 11 layers of denim like a hot knife threw butter. My old $350 baby lock would loose steam on 5 layers and tangle up the bobbin thread. I’m telling you some old lady who made quilts and knew her shit gets to old to sew every day and her machine ends up at the thrift store. That is the machine you want. And any problem you have TH-cam has a video tutorial for.
@@BlueprintDIY Wow! You made my day☺️🙏🏽🌟I’m more motivated than ever. And watching your videos is giving me the strength to know I could do this. Thank you for the text.
@@amberfrazier575 😂 thank you for keeping it 💯. I have in storage an old Singer sewing machine (the one with the pedal and you need to pull the machine up to the top of the desk). I haven’t used it in over 20 years… Maybe I’ll see if it still work.
Thank you Amber ☺️🙏🏽 peace & happiness to you.
@@linda_ladyleo133 my mom left me hers! I LOVE IT! It’s the one she taught me to sew on!!!!!
This does buttonholes the same way as my vintage Elna, 4 steps. I actually like that process because I feel like it gives me more control. But mine has the zigzag way tighter like a satin stitch almost. I do feel like this looks more versatile than the other mini 'toy' machines you have tested and just the sound it makes when running sounds more "solid" if that makes sense? Like the motor is more powerful?
Hi! Are numbers 5 and 6 the kind of seam that goes on the edge of the fabric to prevent it from fraying?
I got the same mashine, was my first one 🤪
i was just looking at a sewing machine for my daughter they cost 35 pounds here thats about 46 dollars and thought is it too cheap and will it do as a beginner and something she could use when she gets better at it .
but your review was very helpful so thank you very much 😉🙏
I just got this machine to replace my old singer. I sew mostly repairs of our own clothes or dog collars for my two dogs. Sadly rhe needle bends when going through two layers of dog collar webbing. But it DOES sew great through denim!
Im curious to see if my singer needles fit
I just bought this machine on poshmark $40. 🥰
I agree with your comments on the zigzag not being great. I mostly make my outfits in stretch fabric for Drag, and I NEED that zigzag to work better. It served me well learning the basics, but I’m now ready to invest in something that’s going to frustrate me less with getting the finish I want.
if u can get a kenmore machine as those have the best zigzag stitch. a lady i know at volunteer just given me her mom vintage kenmore n the zigzag stitches r great. only i do not like the weight as is a brick but heavy dusty machine last ages i been told.
I think I will get one because I am scared of sewing machines and, I am fairly sure I might break it especially if its expensive. I have the mini, one type of stitch one but I tend to handsew everything so have hardly used it. However, theres a couple of things I really want to try and this looks just about my level of machine expertise lol (thats zero!) I subbed and liked but I really wanted to know what needles fit this...just in case!
I found this portable at a Goodwill today for $20 . I checked Amazon and Walmart and the average price is $50+ plus it's brand new plus came with lots of thread, extra Needless etc.. can't wait to try using your tutorial. Thanks Angela 👍🥰🥰
You buy this machine in $20??
Nice content
Thank you!! 😊
Thank youu
Just got mines today,I have a problem with threading the needle,I can’t find the whole on the needle,can you do a video on threading the needle,this my first time using a sewing machine lol?
We got this same machine at Aldi for $20, it really worked good for a few months, but then it started sewing really wierd and the thread kept flying out.
Awesome, question though the button holes how do you open them without cutting through the stitches?
Also I found a Singer Fashion Mate 533 yea an oldie but goodie... For less than $8 at Goodwill. I tried it and it ran so did I, with it to the cashier lol. I've used this monster, for couple weeks now but want the parts feet and such that can be used with it I'm bored lol I found an old singer cabinet for $5 that I managed to get it to fit into and glad because when I'd go full sew it would slide across my table towards me (the legs are worn so the screws are showing making it slide) I haven't sewn really since highschool and I'm 59 so it's all new to me again.
I'm now looking to find a different machine that'll do more but this is also heavy duty so maybe it can do more too 🤔
I’ve never Sewed a day in my life and don’t want to spend a ton until I see if I can learn to sew lol . Which machine do you recommend for a complete newbie who’s afraid of sewing my fingers 😂😅
I attached a blade to it in order to use it as a hacked overlocker
should i buy this new machine or a used brother ls2000
i am a beginner
adn dont know how to stitch
Does it work without NEPA light?
Like does it uses battery?
I have just got this machine and I am trying to some shearing, which stitch pattern would be best for it on this machine? Would it be number 3? Pretty new to sewing and all the information is a little overwhelming!
hey love what you sharing with us on your channel ! I've been wanting to buy this particular machine but i'm quite not sure what materials can be used on it ? materials like silk, georgette, rib fabric......
Those fabrics should be fine. I'd be worried about too many layers of thicker fabrics.
Thank you for your review . I bought this twice and both times it jammed and stopped working. I wanted to love it but I guess I got two lemons. It’s an adorable machine.
I just got a lemon, same problem as you. Gonna to return it
I used to have a sewing machine like that though i bought it for around $24 equivalent in my countrys currency. I sold it after 2 months of using it because i decided to upgrade to a brother sewing machine since i felt it has way more features than that model also its more sturdy because my sewing machine like that has thread jams a lot also for me its not that strong since my needle broke a lot
What number of tension will I use to adjust my jeans pants.
Hi, can the hem of a t-shirt be sewn with this sewing machine?
My thread is to tight when I try to sew and it's always breaking
2 questions, How do I raise the presser foot and how do I sew a button with 6 holes in it
What do you please do a video tutorial on how to use the buttonhole foot on this machine
What number do the thread should be on for the tension
Hm, I may get this instead of the other one. The other only have 1 type of stitch but this has more plus the accessories like the other one.
try the Vevor machine 12 stitches
I've only done 4-step buttonholes and I'm terrible at them, so I pretty much avoid sewing anything that requires a buttonhole.
I just bought this machine and I'm trying desperately to get the bobbin to work. The needle will not pick up the bobbin thread. I'm in frustrated tears trying to figure this out!
I bought this exact same sewing machine in 2020 and i watched this video in 2020......... Its 2022 I'm just now actually using it I know how to sew sleeves back on and the shirt together but im finding it hard to lettuce hem. I also feel so scared to cut something up even though its old. I've been practicing with the same shirt lol. I think i'm discouraging myself because i wish i would've invested in a better sewing machine. But because im a beginner i choose this one. Yesterday was my first time actually sewing.
i need help can u confirm is the metal bobbin call a class 15. am a beginner sewer when i look into the user manual only say pls only use metal bobbin for this machine so that it will work correct ...etc 2nd question is do we need to oil it n if so can u make a video on that too. i buy this after viewing your video but now after using this r the two questions i have n need help to confirm thanks.
