The sewing machine Prelude 1408 is the ideal choice for beginners and those who want a reliable and easy-to-use machine. With the ability to sew on various fabrics and thicknesses, this machine offers great flexibility in the art of sewing. It is equipped with several basic features, such as the selection of different sewing programs, thread tension adjustment, and the ability to sew at two speeds.
Specifications are collected from official manufacturer websites. Please verify the specifications before proceeding with your final purchase. If you notice any problem you can report it here.
For beginners, it is good enough as long as the flaw I describe does not stand out, making it almost useless. I have a big problem with the needle getting bent. Specifically, the position of the needle hits easily on the iron bottom and bends. The first time I returned it (within a month), and a new one came from the box. After a while, the same problem occurred... now I only use it for straight stitching and gradually, to prevent bending. Not satisfied at all. Maybe I will take it to a technician in the area, but it's a shame.
I sew for years I got it because I wanted a smaller machine because my old one is too heavy and bulky, I chose it based on reviews okay for singer I expected a slightly better longer lever longer presser foot because I end up sewing manually also I noticed a couple of times it doesn't pull the fabric well during stitching but okay now I'm taking it for a walk
We got it for amateur use and it seems to do its job well. For simple things, of course, we have it. You need to get additional needles for thicker clothes and oil.
I consider it a very decent home sewing machine, especially for its price! I emphasize home use, because it means that it is best for areas with multiple layers of fabric to stop the motor and work manually with the wheel for greater control, as the needle can find resistance and break with the motor.
Here are some things that I consider positive about the machine:
1. It easily fills the bobbins.
2. The thread passes easily to be ready for sewing.
3. The instructions are quite descriptive.
4. The thread tension and stitch length are adjustable to the changes we make with the two corresponding levers.
5. It is quite quiet during sewing, it did not skip any stitches in the first 3 months of use, and it is small/lightweight for storage.
6. It includes different types of feet and needles, and we can also purchase others for more specialized uses.
Here are some things that I think could be improved:
1. The cable could be longer, especially from the pedal to the machine. In the office where I use it, it barely reaches.
2. The wheel on the right is of much smaller diameter compared to previous models, making manual use particularly tiring, which is common in home machines.
3. To switch to reverse stitching, there is a lever, but it has a spring return (it is not a switch), which means it returns to forward stitching if we take our hand off it. This creates some handling issues, as pressing the lever occupies one hand, and we are forced to sew only with the other. For example, if we want to do reverse stitching on multiple layers of fabric, and therefore probably manually with the wheel, it is practically impossible because one hand will be on the lever and the other on the wheel. Previous models had a lever/switch that stayed in the position of reverse stitching, but the company for its own reasons (economic, safe use, infrequent use of reverse stitching?) eliminated it.
4. I think there were poor choices for the position and material of the white plastic lever for lifting the presser foot. Regarding the position, when the foot is lowered, the lever is facing downwards (its edge is only 3 centimeters away from the sewing base), and it is on the right side of the foot, which means there is a high chance of hitting it with the right hand while sewing, as well as when placing or changing direction on a bulky fabric (the lever often gets caught in the fabric). Regarding the material, in combination with the position, there is a risk of the lever breaking due to its plastic material. Previous models had the lever placed directly behind the presser foot, positioned higher and more discreetly, on the body of the machine.
5. I am afraid that the whole plastic construction of the machine will not withstand the test of time, for example, how many opening and closing cycles can the plastic box that hides the bobbin and the storage space endure... But what can we do about it, since we live in the plastic era...
6. Placing the bobbin underneath is a bit, just a bit difficult, or at least it troubles me a little. Perhaps they could have made it easier, especially considering that it is also aimed at (mainly) older users.
Just bought it. I have no experience with sewing machines. I watch videos on YouTube and it seems super easy. I will come back with the results.
It is the classic case where you pay, you get... I classify it as a very good sewing machine for someone who wants to engage in amateur sewing (hemming pants, sewing patches on uniforms, patching holes). It requires great attention when the needle passes over thick seams, such as in jeans. It is good to stop using the foot pedal there and handle it manually from the right, from the round button and ALWAYS with the thickest needle.
Easy to use, satisfactory needles, two-year warranty, all good.
Okay guys! It's not professional, but it gets the job done! You should always know the matching of the right needle size, fabric thickness, and threads so you don't count broken needles and threads and chewed fabric!!! These are the basic rules of sewing!!!
Good kids, but not for many things. When I rarely sew jeans on the hem, I leave the point where the thick seam folds because the machine can't handle it and struggles and stops. If I insist, it breaks my needles. Take it easy.
As a beginner, I am very satisfied. I don't know if it will cover me when I advance in sewing. However, it is user-friendly and worth its money.
Small but high-quality and easy to use. Rich in accessories that make it capable of almost everything. After a year of use, absolute satisfaction and exceptional service.
I have it for 2 years and it's amazing! For beginners like me, it is excellent and easy to use. With the help of the company Singer's YouTube videos, you learn how it works. If you want, you can make an appointment with a company representative to guide you. They come to your house for free. For its price, it is a very good choice!
One stitch and one in the service. I am furious. I will break it in the end to calm down.
