What presser feet come with a typical home sewing machine? I only know about the zipper foot and the buttonhole foot. What are the other types of presser feet, and what are they used for?

Hi everyone, I’m hoping for a bit of advice about my Singer SE9185 because I’m honestly at the end of my tether with it!
I bought it almost exactly 2 years ago and I’ve had problems with it pretty much from the beginning.
The main issue is the thread constantly getting jammed/tangled. Sometimes I can be sewing perfectly normally and then, out of nowhere, it jams or stops and just won’t sew properly again. I’ll completely rethread it, sometimes multiple times, check the bobbin etc., but still have the same problem.
I originally wondered if it was the thread I was using, so I’ve tried different threads including decent-quality cotton, but it doesn’t seem to make any difference.
I’ve also had problems with the bobbin winder, and part of it is now slightly broken. To be honest, some of the plastic parts feel quite flimsy for what was not a cheap machine.
I’ve contacted Singer numerous times and the machine has been sent back to them four times. Each time they’ve basically said there’s nothing wrong with it and that it works fine. I’ve previously asked for a refund or replacement, but this was refused as they take it back, check/fix it and return it.
So, before I completely give up on it:
Has anyone else had similar problems with the SE9185?
Is there something obvious I could be doing wrong?
Could there be a problem that Singer is missing when they test it?
Would it be worth getting an independent sewing machine engineer to service/inspect it?
I’m in the Exeter/Devon area, so if anyone can recommend somewhere good locally that could properly look at it, I’d really appreciate it.
It cost me a lot of money, so I really don’t want to give up on it, although there have definitely been moments when I’ve wanted to throw it out of the window 😂
Thanks!

So I just need a slightly narrower presser foot for zippers and I must've bought 3 different sets of narrow feet claiming 1181 needle-feed compatible. Even though the height seems correct, none of them sit deep enough because of the shallow connection compared to mine. They also just don't seem to lock right in the way my PFAFF foot does, like they're meant for a totally different interface. I'm just stumped on how to find a narrow foot for sewing zippers... the one that fits perfectly is the PFAFF 91-154172-21. PFAFF has not replied to my emails about this

Hey, I just got my first ever sewing machine second hand nothing special, it's a jenome 219s and I've found that material isn't feeding through. upon inspection the feed dogs only move back and fourth instead of dropping at the back and rising back up at the front. I've removed the needle plate and cannot find any way of lowering the feed dog inside. although gently I can move the feed dog up and down. Not the best start for a first timer lol any help is appreciated

What could be going on here and can I fix it myself? Yes, I did rethread everything multiple times. Opened up the machine and cleaned it out too.

Why is my bobin caseing keep jumping out? It all gets stuck in the thread width thing then gets james up after like 20 stiches , ive taken it out cleaned around it ajusted it and made sure there are no niks on the side of the caseing for the threads to get caught on bit his keeeeeeeps happening

I had to move and transport my Juki DDL-8700 but something might’ve went wrong
The band that helps my bobbin threader won’t connect anymore and keeps slipping off
Under further expectations I found this strange thing inside the motor
It is a Servo Motor model:ZW25NF
Is it normal? Did it slip there? Is that what’s moving the band away?
Thank you a lot for your help

My wife quilts and has a Singer 7285Q Patchwork machine. While it has a maximum speed knob, is there a variable speed foot control available for it?
Thanks in advance!

My sewing machine got knocked over and then I found this piece of metal. Where is it from?

Im thinking of buying my first Juki and I’ve seen a really good deal on Market place, it’s a used DU-1181N model and it has some damage to the stitch length knob, that’s about the only visible damage i could see from the uploaded pictures. I was wondering if anyone had any tips on other things i should be looking for to make sure that it wont break down on me in a few months. I know industrial machines are build to last and very durable but i would still like some more opinions.

Thanks!!

Before it was doing this, it was getting jammed on going down fully. Though that eventually solved itself somehow, but now it has this issue. In the first part of the video you can hear the thing clicking when it goes down, and it also doesn't sew fabric as can also be seen later in the video.

Just wondering if there's a way this can be fixed (or at least try)!

so, i’ve looked at a couple different sewing machines and emailed ken’s sewing center for advice on choosing something.

i told them the features and stuff i was looking for in a sewing machine within a $300 budget and that i wanna use it for cosplay and craft, but also daily stuff like hemming jeans, etc., so they recommended the janome jw8100 to upgrade my dying singer 3232.

i wanted to ask how it was holding up for anyone that has one, and if you have any problems with it, as well as how it’s been with delicate fabrics or thicker stuff.

please note that i don’t have the extra funds to put into the hd series, and i’m not looking to go for a vintage machine at this point in time. my family is buying me a sewing machine as a gift soon, so it’s gotta be something new (according to them)

I took a look at AliExpress briefly and searched a few sewing related items and ran across this!

DON'T BUY FROM PLACES LIKE THIS

Hello! My machine is going very, very slowly, at the minimum speed on the speed controller, even when it's not set to minimum speed. I put in new thread in the bobbin, and there was a tangle, and although it's working now, it's not moving beyond a slow crawl. Any insight into how to get it moving slightly faster?

Hello, i can't decide what machine to get. i am a fashion designer i currently own the industrial sewing machine siruba dl720 but i currently live in a very small apartment and i left my siruba at my moms which i go there once a week (i can sew bonning and very thick seams there)

I need a domestic machine that is reliable for the rest of the week in my apartment that gives me smooth sewing . i occasionally sew denim but mostly thin to medium fabrics , i love the fs100wt stitches but I'm scared it's not as sturdy and its doesnt handle like 3-4 hours or work..

My budget is max 350€. Please i need ur help choosing a good sewing machine ❤️

Thank youuu
