Review: Good value and great for beginners - I began sewing in my early teens and for many years used a great 60's-vintage White sewing machine that was built like a tank. I tired of sewing in the 90's and gave my machine away along with all of my accessories. But every time in the 20 years since, when I've had to hem pants, mend a seam, sew on a button, I've thought "I wish I had a sewing machine". After spending over an hour mending a seam on my husband's shirt the other night, I decided to finally buy a machine. I didn't want anything fancy or costly, and spent several days doing lots of research. I decided on the Singer 2259 Tradition based on price and the Singer name. My new machine was delivered today; so far, after having spent several hours running through all the features and stitches, I feel completely satisfied with this purchase. This machine was a breeze to set up and is simple to use. I watched the video on desertcart regarding threading and loading the bobbin and adjusting the tension, which was very helpful, since I'm used to a drop-in bobbin, and this one is side-loaded. The machine is quiet, relatively light-weight with an attached handle, making it easy to set up and take down. (Although it comes with a dust cover, I also purchased the case.) I'm happy with the variety of stitches offered, although I haven't tried the buttonhole feature yet. I think this would be the perfect machine for a child (or any beginner) to get started with. The only negative so far is that the outside of the box says an instructional DVD is included, but one was not included with mine. However, I've found enough videos on the Singer website, desertcart, and youtube to answer any of my questions. Although it's early yet, all-in-all, I'm happy I made the decision to purchase this machine - it seems a very good value for the price. I'm giving it 4 stars since it is still too new to give it 5. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: I've now had this machine for 3 months and I've upgraded it to 5 stars. I've had absolutely no problems with it, and I use it a lot. Since I bought it, I've taken up quilting and it's performing great, sewing through multiple layers like a breeze. The stitches are perfect. I've since purchased a few accessories needed for quilting, such as a walking foot, and I continue to be impressed with this little machine.

Thats all I need it for. For hemming dress pants and jeans.** A: Yes, this would hem pants just fine. Remember you would not be able to go through a huge number of layers of denim so if you have very heavy denim and thick seams, there could be an issue. But not for dress pants or normal jeans. If you change needles to suit the fabric, you will have better results. For example, there are denim needles (heavier gauge to punch through the thick fabric) and ball-point needles to sew effectively through knits. If you can run a test of your hemming stitch through similar fabric first, you will get a good result by adjusting tension to get a decent stitch. If the pants are very good ones, use a fresh needle and very good quality thread. (I like Guterman or Mettler.) **Q: reviews for singer 2277** A: This machine is compact, yet powerful. It delivers all the basic needs of a larger machine in a small, affordable Singer **Q: does this machine have a reverse stitch** A: Yes, this machine does have a reverse stitch and it works well. **Q: Does this come with an automatic bobbin threader?** A: Depends on what you consider automatic. This machine lets you put the bobbin on top and then you attach the thread to it and then you use the foot pedal to feed thread on to the bobbin. Then you put the bobbin in the machine for use. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value and great for beginners *by E***H on May 11, 2014* I began sewing in my early teens and for many years used a great 60's-vintage White sewing machine that was built like a tank.

Longtime seamstress was seriously impressed! Great basic machine. *by D***S on December 22, 2015* I have a very expensive, heavy duty machine, but it needed service last month and since it was so close to the holidays, I needed a back up while my machine was in the shop. This was an AMAZING choice! I have seen the same machine in in the store for about $125-150, but on Amazon I got it for less than $85 when I purchased it (and free shipping with Prime). I have sewn my whole life, well, for about 45 years of it so far. When I was 5, I was taught to sew on an industrial sewing machine (because that was all my grandmother owned...and she owned a whole room full of them), so I have quite a bit of experience with sewing machines. For the money, this one is very impressive. The bobbin housing is all metal (not the case in most lower priced machines) and the machine works very well -- and I put it through the ringer, believe me! It's a simple machine, not a ton of flashy stitches, but all the basic ones you need. All the parts (needles, bobbins, feet) are all pretty basic and you can pick them up just about anywhere. And, when it's fast, it is FAST! That being said, the pedal is easy to control for slower, more controlled sewing as well. The only thing that is funky is the placement of the reverse stitch lever, but I got used to it. I am reviewing this after I put several hundred hours on this machine (I got it close tot he holidays and right before a big craft show I did....not to mention keeping up with orders in my Etsy shop). The machine is still running well and sewing great. I have had some issues with the reverse lever lately, but in this short time I have had the machine, I have probably used it more than most people would use it in a year or two. So, consider that fact when I run down the pros and cons. In the short time I have had it, I have probably subjected it to a couple years worth of wear and tear. Pros: - Very well made - It's FAST! but also easy to control the speed when you need to sew slower. - All metal bobbin casing and mechanism - stitches include stretch stitches and all basic stitches needed. - Amazing price Cons: - reverse stitch placement is weird: right above the needle area rather than near the wheel where it normally is - only very basic stitches, but this might not a con to most who just need a basic sewing machine - the machine is very light (which would seem like a "pro," but when you are sewing at a fast speed, the machine will kind of "inch" across the table because it's so light). - after about 200+ hours, the reverse lever is starting to get sticky and hard to press down. All in all, this was an amazing machine for the price. Honestly, these days, any machine under $300ish is really a "throwaway" machine - meaning that it costs more to service than to replace. Remember when we used to have our TVs and VCRs repaired? Now we just replace them (well, not the VCRs, but you know what I mean ;) ). But it's the same with sewing machines. I just paid $150 to service my $600 machine. I wouldn't ever take a machine such as this in for service, because it would cost more than replacing it. It kind of sucks, but that's the price we pay for cheap goods I guess. All that being said, if you are looking for a basic machine to sew some things for your family once in a while, this is perfect. If you are more of a professional and are looking for a "back up" or low cost portable machine, this is also perfect. I have recommended it to a number of my friends and I am now recommending it here in my review. I did NOT get this item at a discount for review, I purchased it at full price on Amazon for my own personal use. *personal purchase ## Frequently Bought Together - SINGER 2259 Tradition Easy-to-Use Free-Arm 19-Stitch Sewing Machine - Elite Range Professional Sewing Kit - Portable Sewing Accessories Bag - Includes Full Size Tailor Scissors --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1399540-singer-tradition-2259-portable-sewing-machine-including-19-built-in](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1399540-singer-tradition-2259-portable-sewing-machine-including-19-built-in) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
