I decided it was  time to trade in my old workhorse embroidery machine for a top of the line Singer Quantum XL6000. I had been drooling over it for some time, It has state-of-the-art, upgradeable features.  Some of the featuers I was drooling over included the . Must-have features of an automatic...

My husband bought for me a brand new Singer XL 6000.  I spent a lot of time trying to learn how to use the machine using the manual and working with it.  After using it only briefly for embroidery I ran into problems.  First of all the automatic thread exchanger does not take into account that the... review »

I've had my XL 6000 for 18 months now, and totally love it! The embroidery is beautiful, and it sews like a dream. I bought this machine to replace separate sewing and embroidery machines. I love the large embroidery field on the Singer, and the fact that it comes with 3 sizes of hoops, including one small enough to hoop hats and socks. It actually threads the needle, from the top of the machine through the eye of the needle, automatically. The thread exchanger allows you to "stage" or set up your next thread color in your embroidery design, it cuts the current thread, re-winds it onto the spool,... review »

The SINGER© XL 6000 sewing and embroidery machine is truly the ultimate in sewing. Use the thread exchanger and embroider with continuous thread changes. Make borders with ease using the continuous hoop which is included. Instructions are now a pop up on the screen and much easier to find and understand. When you run out of bobbin thread the SINGER© XL6000 sewing machine will rewind the bobbin right off a spool and thread automatically and continue to sew. No other house hold embroidery machine has these great features plus a large hoop, the ability to do multi-hooping, built-in embroidery, lettering...

The Singer Quantum XL 6000 has is ALL.

Automatic bobbin winder when using embroidery module, no more fumbling to find and fill your bobbins.

Fully automatic machine threading, from top bobbin thread through needle

Easy bobbin winder when regular sewing

Thread cutter, at end of seams, no more wasted thread or endless bits of thread

More and more tooooooo many to mention

Great support from SInger, Talk to us web site

Take a look and see

I'M in LOVE

This machine gave me no trouble at all making Christmas presents for 18 people this season.  The only drawback was when I was trying to sew with a 300 weight fleece.  I was sewing a hat that required 3 layers to go through and that is difficult for any machine but I did it.  The trick was to go very slowly.

the Singer XL6000 is not very user friendly in comparison to the Brother4000D.  Auto bobbin winder can be problematic, but the ability to skip every other threading is a plus.

I have the XL6000 Singer sewing and embroidery machine . I have had it worked on twice for thread wraping around the bobbin case.Ihave found the tread from the automatic bobbin does not always cut the thread  If you watch the spool to see if the thread is moving when the machine starts back ,cut the machine off and cut the thread. You can remove a small amount of thread with a small blade and tweezers.When your bobbin gives out you will have to rethread, a little inconvenence but will save $200.I am calling singer today to report this problem.

I worked for Singer a few yrs ago and purchased because of price and versabilty.  At first I loved it.  But first I had trouble with the bobbin winder and had to get fixed. There must of been close to a full spool of thread wrapped up in it.  Then it would just stop moving.   I got fixed for about 200 bucks it worked about a month then the same thing happened again.  I do also have a 1000 and love it.

I purchased the Quantum XL6000 machine in March  2008 and love it. I had trouble in the beginning getting it to work with Vista. I ordered a new cable to connect the computer to the machine and no problem since. Sews out beautiful designs and love the endless bobbin. True the manual is not user friendly but with some time and practice I figured it out. Would love to find some videos. The machine is a very strong machine, does not seem like a plastic box as some of the others I tried. October to December the machine was use almost daily, I made gifts for everyone on my Christmas list, no problem....

This machine is very pricey but it would be ok if it was more simpler to use.  I agree that it is not the easy  machine to use it took me and 2 other friends to get the machine to make design or an mommagram.  singer is one of the oldest machine company and they should make a machine that is less complicate.  They should also have some machines that do designs for less money.  We live in  time that everyone is getting back to do it yourself times.  they should make it that some new comer to sewing can pick up on their product to make a living or have fun making personel items for family...
