Singer 9960

Reputation proven over the years

The name of the sewing machine "Singer" is well known even to those who have nothing to do with sewing, since more than one generation of needlewomen has been brought up on the devices of the American company.

Appearance and characteristics

The design of the model is not much different from popular computerized sewing machines: a massive body made of high-strength plastic, a classic design, a panel with control buttons and a bright display for tracking the set sewing parameters. The advantages of the design solution should immediately include the presence of a sleeve platform that allows you to work with such inconvenient delay elements as legs and sleeves.

Lines for every whim

A sewing device with a horizontal shuttle type can delight not only amateurs, but also experienced craftsmen, since the presence of 700 varieties of stitches will make the most incredible ideas come true. The machine is also rich in the presence of loops — 12 pcs, which are performed at lightning speed in automatic mode, and for gourmet embroidery, a system for embroidering letters (three Latin alphabets and Russian) is presented.

A handy feature is pedalless sewing, which you may not use if you are an adherent of the classic sewing process.

Equipment and accessories

The complete set of the sewing machine is impressive, because with the help of 12 feet presented, you can perform complex but useful operations, such as sewing in a cord, topstitching, quickly sewing on a button, making a blind stitch or carefully inserting a zipper. And thanks to the “quick change foot” function, all manipulations will not take much time.

The Singer 9960 sewing machine can become both a good teacher for a beginner seamstress and help in the implementation of the design ideas of a professional mini-studio, but the choice of threads will have to be done very carefully, since the model treats cheap spools with disdain, reducing the quality of the stitching.
