Additional Features & Benefits

Top Loading Jam-Proof Bobbin System with Clear Cover
This mechanism incorporates a magnet-type vertical axis rotating hook that ensures smooth, quiet, thread jam-resistant sewing. The bobbin case floats above the hook, precluding thread jams. The bobbin loads from the top, so it is easy to insert the bobbin. The clear cover makes it easy to monitor the bobbin thread supply.

Snap-On Presser Feet
Change from one presser foot to another effortlessly with snap-on feet. No need for screwdrivers to change feet.

On-Board Storage
Storage of accessories in the Removable Extension Table means accessories are always handy.

Audible Tone
An audible tone confirms pattern and function selection.

Auto Tie-Off Function for Straight Stitch
Tie-off straight stitches with just a push of a button. Reinforcing the beginning and end of the seam prevents unraveling.

Tacking Stitch with Auto Tie-Off Function for Decorative Stitches
Tie-off decorative stitches, at the beginning and end of the sequence, with just a push of a button.

Automatic Reverse
Push the conveniently located Automatic Reverse Button to sew stitches in reverse.

6mm Stitch Width
Most stitches can be set for a maximum width of 6mm. When sewing decorative stitches or satin stitches, the wide stitches are bolder and more pronounced.

Six-Second Threading
Thread the machine in six seconds. Just follow the arrows on the machine, and you are threaded in a snap.

Sewing Speed
With a maximum sewing speed of 750 stitches-per-minute, projects can be sewn quickly.

Automatic Presser Foot Pressure
The amount of pressure exerted on the fabric by the presser foot against the feed dogs is automatic. Sew from the lightest weight tricots to the heaviest denim, without making presser foot adjustments.

Automatic Bobbin Winding Clutch
Needle bar automatically disengages when winding the bobbin, making bobbin winding safer because the needle won’t move up and down.

Bobbin Winder Stop
Bobbin will automatically stop turning when the bobbin is completely filled. Never worry about overfilling a bobbin again.

Extra-High Presser Foot Lifter
There are two heights to the presser foot lifter. The second height offers more clearance, which is needed when placing multiple layers of bulky fabric under the presser foot.

Six-Segment Feeding System
This is a specially designed feed dog that ensures that the fabric is picked up and supported from the front of the presser foot to the rear. This makes for much more accurate feeding.

Heavy Duty Metal Frame
The rigid internal skeleton support holds all the mechanisms in alignment for overall durability and skip-free sewing.

Built-In Stretch Stitches
These are specially designed stitches that add strength and flexibility to seams. Ideal for sewing on knits and other stretch fabrics.

Adjustable Stitch Length and Width
Optimal settings for length and width are automatically selected when choosing a stitch. They can be overridden to personalize length and width choice.

Center Zigzag Taper
When tapering with the zigzag stitch, the stitch tapers to the center, not the left or right. This provides a more attractive look when tapering into or out of a point.

Twin Needle Capability
When using a twin needle (optional), selected stitches can be adjusted for twin needle sewing by reducing the stitch width. Twin needle stitching creates two parallel rows, adding a decorative touch.

13 Needle Positions
Needle position can be changed for individual projects, such as inserting zippers or cording and topstitching.

Optimum Power Control
A control system that senses when additional power is required to maintain speed through thick or changing fabric thickness. This feature is most useful when sewing through multiple fabric layers including denim.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome sewing machine for the first time sewer :), July 15, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: SINGER Factory Serviced 7256 Fashion Mate Computerized Sewing Machine (Misc.)
I'm a first time sewing machine owner, and I'm loving it. I've been hand-sewing, and always wanted a sewing machine that is versatile and economical. This machine came like a brand-new machine with a complete packaging.

* Very easy to use (I love how easy it is to make bobbins on this one)
* Love the stretch fabric stitching options
* Super easy to change the stitching - just change the number and everything else will change automatically
* Auto needle threader is super convenient - though you have to make sure that the tiny hook is actually going into the needle hole in order to thread; otherwise, it won't thread
* You can control sewing speed with the foot pedal.

So far, I have no major issues with this machine except a couple of minor problems.
* Thread tend to get ripped in the middle of sewing, but I think it might be due to the fact that the thread I used might be a flimsy one.
* The fabric tend to get caught on the plate,... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Machine, August 9, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: SINGER Factory Serviced 7256 Fashion Mate Computerized Sewing Machine (Misc.)
This is a quality machine at a great price! Singer is a great brand, and this machine hasn't exhibited any problems in the month that I've been using it. It threads very easily for both the top thread and the bobbin, and the features are very intuitive. The stitch patterns are unique, adding lots of personality and a variety of uses to the garment. I couldn't tell it was "factory serviced;" it seems just like new!
