I have been sewing for many years, and this Singer is the easiest machine to thread. I don't mind changing thread colors at all. from Target.com I have been sewing for several years, and I got the Singer model 5050 for Christmas 3 years ago. I love it! from Target.com I am sure this is a fine machine, but unfortunately I did not receive a new but a used machine with yellowish discolorations and dirty spots on the panel, thread on the bobbin and the cover of the bobbin case was not functioning properly. I promptly returned the unit and got a refund. While Singer is selling this model also refurbished this was supposed to be a new machine. from Amazon.com The Singer 5050 provides an excellent mid-range sewing machine at a low-end price.

Although not automatically threading like many top-of-the-line machines, the 5050 is incredibly easy to thread--moreso than even the underpowered little handheld stitchers advertised on TV. The thread tension and stitch widths are easily adjustable, providing for accurate, strong seams that don't snag or snap the thread during sewing.

The 5050 includes 50 different stitch functions (made from 32 stitches), can do 4-step buttonholes with ease, and can be used to do darning, embroidery, and all manner of decorative stitches.

Accessories included are a second pattern module (for an alternate 25 stitch functions), zipper, button, blindstitch, and special-purpose presser feet, an assortment of needles, a friction-free plate for embroidery, and spare bobbins.

from Amazon.com it is easy to use and does a great job. from Target.com i have been sewing for many years, and this singer is the easiest machine to thread. from Target.com it is easy to set up and jump into sewing with. from Amazon.com it threads easy and has all the decorative stitches i need. from Amazon.com the singer 5050 provides an excellent mid-range sewing machine at a low-end price.although not automatically threading like many top-of-the-line machines, the 5050 is incredibly easy to from Amazon.com oh yeah threadng this was easy until the piece that holds the thread fell off one day while i was sewing...this is clearly a poorly put together machine. from Target.com
