Review by Irene Wightman
I'm an OAP and sewed all my life, various machines incl Industrials when space permitted so can be picky when it comes to my sewing machine. Bought a very well known brand 5yrs ago, from different supplier, worst purchase ever. Have spent last 2 yrs looking for new machine but frightened in case I chose another bad buy. Silver 25-3 - expected to find fault or something I didn't like but no to both. Instruction book in English and easy to understand. This machine runs smoothly and quietly, not too heavy. Dials for changing stitch width, length and type of stitch very easy. Pressure foot control perfect for feeding through material, nothing worse than being able to pull material this way and that while foot is down, nightmare when doing curves believe you me. This machine has ability to reduce/increase pressure on foot depending on thickness/thinness of material. Auto threader good, thread cutter on head of machine excellent, no more starting to sew again for thread to come out of needle because you've not left enough thread spare. I was prepared to pay more for a machine but due to personal preference I prefer a 4 step buttonhole and dearer machines have a 1 step. In my opinion this is a good machine and excellent value for money.

Review by Kate Padwick
I am still exploring this machine but so far I am extremely impressed. I do have to refer to the manual quite a lot but I've had a 20 year break from sewing and things have moved on a lot in that time! The best thing so far has been the automatic needle threader. Sometimes the simplest things have the most impact! I was able to set the machine up and practice basic stitchs within a few minutes of unpacking. The machine feels sturdy but isn't too heavy and comes with a smart hard case, so much better than the soft one on my old machine. Service from Sewing Machine Sales was excellent. I placed my order late on a Friday afternoon. My banking site crashed so I rang to check everything had gone through ok. The gentleman I spoke to was very friendly and helpful and reassured me that all was ok. He apologised that I had missed the next working day deadline but despite this my machine arrived on Monday. Couldn't ask for more.

Review by Jill Lee
Very pleased with this machine, especially the needle threader, makes it so much easier to use. My son has made a thick, fur lined denim jacket with it and it managed the thickness very well except for the button holes. Four thicknesses of denim plus the lining was just too much for the button holer but everything was fine.

Received my machine yesterday. Was looking to replace my old Singer, and after much research I chose the Janome Atelier 3. I am very happy and wish I had ordered it ages ago. It sews beautifully, am looking forward to making many quilts with it. Your customer service is fabulous. Thank you so much, I shall be back to order a sewing table soon.

Review by Singer P
This is the first sewing machine I ever bought. I have done loads of research prior purchase and I have to say it did pay off. I really like my Singer 4411 sewing machine very easy to use. There could be more info in terms of tension settings but apart from that everything else is seems straight forward.
