The differences that matter
- 50 vs 200 stitches → how many options you have before you outgrow the machine
- 5 vs 8 buttonhole types → the Singer covers more buttonhole variants
- Automatic thread cutter on the Singer → no scissors at the end of a seam
- 4.6 kg vs 6.3 kg → what it weighs to move around
