Singer 8280

An electromechanical sewing machine is more suitable for learning, repairing clothes and sewing simple things. Allows you to work with different types of fabric, but especially dense ones may not be mastered. The model offers a small number of types of stitches - only 7, including a straight line with the needle located in the center or in an extreme position, hidden, decorative (shell and crescent) and zigzag.

For switching, a convenient rotary control with clear symbols is used. The loop is performed in semi-automatic mode for 4 switching and without turning the fabric. The presser foot pressure is adjustable for optimal results when sewing both light and heavy fabrics and the stitch length is adjustable (up to 4 mm), but the width is adjustable only for the zigzag stitch. The height of the presser foot is also adjusted, but by a maximum of 9 mm, which may not be enough when sewing buttons on dense materials.

Singer 8280 received a reliable metal frame, a simple but reliable rocking shuttle, a reverse function for sewing in different directions and a sleeve platform, which is useful when working with narrow product details like sleeves. Also, for the convenience of the user, there is a special knife for trimming threads, eliminating the need to use scissors, and a backlight. The package includes several feet (universal, for sewing in zippers and for sewing on buttons), needles, bobbins, a darning plate, a stitching guide, spool clips, etc.
