Why a Kenmore 158 is a good first machine
A Kenmore model 158 is a excellent choice for a first sewing machine because they are durable, all-metal workhorses that can handle a wide variety of fabrics, especially heavy-duty ones. They are often simple to use, reliable, and easy to service, making them ideal for learning the basics without being overly complex.
* Durability: Made with all-metal parts, precision machined metal gearing, these machines are built to last. No plastic gears that can break over time or start to wear and affect the sewing precision of a machine.
* Made in Japan with precision parts and strict quality control.
* Power and Performance: They have powerful motors that allow them to sew through multiple layers of fabric, like denim, with strong, consistent stitches.
* Spare parts, like the motor drive belt, are readily available.
* Simplicity: While they can do many stitches with the help of cams, many models offer the essential straight and zigzag stitches for all your basic projects, making them easy to learn on.
* Repairability: Because they are older, all-metal machines, they are often easier for a home user to oil and service themselves, and parts are generally available online.
* Versatility: With the addition of different cams (depending on the model), you can create a wide range of decorative stitches, expanding your creative options.
