The is the third machine I have bought in recent years and I have to say, by far the best, no bells and whistles, no programming, just straightforward serviceability. It is fast for a domestic, feels sturdy and my first project was sewn without issues, in furnishing fabric, at some stages 5 layers thick. Would recommend without reservation.

You’re in safe hands with our experiencecd team based at our showroom. We have been in the sewing industry for over 25 years and have supplied Singer to 100,000s of customers right across the UK.
Sadly, as most high streets no longer have a sewing shop, we do our best to give you as close to the in-store experience as possible when buying a machine online: specialist advice from our sewing team on sewing machines and accessories, plus a package built just for you with the very best deal.

Description
The Heavy Duty range isn't just for tough jobs - it's genuinely a better all-round machine. A more powerful motor, more metal components and a dual pulley needle drive mean you can sew silk one minute and denim, leather or upholstery the next. No real drawbacks to going heavy duty. The new 2027 model adds a dual pulley system for maximum torque and needle penetration.
What the Singer Sewing Outlet experts say:
"The 5511 is a brilliant new addition to the Heavy Duty range for those that want a no hassle machine and only use the basic stitch patterns. 60% stronger than a standard machine, 30% faster, and built to last. All our heavy duty machines can sew the same thickness of material, so when you go up the range you are simply adding more stitch patterns and features, so this is ideal for those who just generally sew straight stitch and zig zag."

I am over the moon 🌓 with the machine. I work on Upholsterey projects. The machine has glided through sowing work; Including upholstery Linen fabric for dining chairs. Upholstery velvet , Kilim heavy chenille fabric for cushion covers. I have used triple thickness for piping work. Fabulous 💖 I am very wary that I want to look after the machine and carnt wait to get a service engineer { after covid19) to show me how to carry out proper maintenance.

Really liking my new sewing machine. The only minor issue for me was the speed, it was way too fast for my taste. Luckily, I found a video tutorial on how to adjust the pedal speed, and now it works great!

Really pleased with my Heavy Duty 5511 Singer Sewing Machine. Have not used it a lot at the moment as I am very busy with my large garden. However, looking forward to the autumn and winter when I can devote more time to my sewing. It's not as heavy as my 60 year old Singer 237, which it replaces, (so that's a bonus) but just as easy to use.

It's perfect, I've not played with it much as been too busy but made a couple of lavender bags. My old singer sewing machine was my mum's hand machine so this is fantastic. Now I plan to start making my own clothes using patterns, something I have wanted to do. Oh by the way, the bobbin winding is great and threading is very easy. Very pleased with my machine.

I had a singer sewing machine many years ago, this new one hasn’t changed much so was easy to pick up again I like the simplicity of the machine, it dyes the job intended
Sarah F. 5/5 Verified
The items arrived to time and were exactly as dezcribed. I have caught up with all of the families outstanding running repairs ( shortening hems, securing frayed seams etc.)and will be trying on new projects imminently. The only disappointment was I had expected a free carry case but received alternative accessories instead.
Sharon D. 5/5 Verified
Lovely machine, so easy to set up. Didn't need the instruction booklet at all, even though I've printed it off. Smooth operation, purrs quietly as you sew. Perfect stitches which is a novelty for me as I spent years making do with my ancient machine. It's fabulous and the company are excellent to deal with too.

I had bought a different brand before this as the hype got me but I was sorely disappointed and vey upset with it's performance, I do quite a it of sewing making various bags for sale on crafting sites to make ends meet and to keep me sane and it hasn't struggled with anything so far, fingers crossed, it is easy to use, lightweight to move around, transitions from various fabrics with ease, haven't worked much with leather which will be the big test but I printed off the full instructions and will follow them word for word for leather.

Easy to set up and use by two beginner machinists.
Nichola C. 5/5 Verified
Took a bit of time and changing of settings to get it to sew straight but now all set up it works very well. Got this to replace a 40 year old machine that gave up the ghost half way through a project. The spare feet, needles and spools will come in handy. 4 star instead of 5 because it wasn't ready straight out of the box .
