I'm watching HSN this morning and they're presenting the Singer CG-590 Commercal Grade sewing machine. I've not been too happy with some of the things I've bought from HSN before and I was wondering if anyone has this machine or knows anything about it and what you have to say about it. Is it really heavy duty and reliable?

They don't sell them here in the UK, so I can't tell from personalexperience. However, I'd probably be more tempted by this:
Is a low end machine in a heavy metal body so they claim it is commercial grade. Poor choice of machines

Ron is the expert and hardly needs any second motions.
But i second what Ron said if you do not already know what an expert Ron is.
I looked at one of those machines and just like Ron says it looks like the insides of some plastic singer machine and they puy it inside the shell of a tank with a hammer metal paint finish to give the illusion of an industrial like machine. I am sure you will find nothing on the box or literature that hints at industrial. The "commercial" marketing moniker is suppose to conjure that idea in your head. It did have me hooked until i looked at one up close.
run away waste your money on a useful machine.

Thank you so much for the feedback on this machine. As a matter of fact, I'm relieved to hear it or my lack of self control would have led me to purchase it because it looked sooo good.
You da best!!
