The 6199 Brilliance is a computerised machine: the stitches are stored in its electronics and chosen electronically rather than by turning a mechanical dial. Stitch width and length are adjustable, so the same stitch can be tuned for a light blouse fabric or a denser cotton. A top speed of 750 RPM is enough for long straight seams, while still leaving a beginner in control around curves and corners.
The 100 stitches give you choice for everyday seams, edge finishing and decorative detail. All six buttonholes are sewn in one step: the machine completes the buttonhole in a single cycle and you never have to turn the fabric. You can match the buttonhole style to the garment and the button, for example a narrow one on a shirt and a sturdier one on a coat, with no extra attachments.
The machine uses a vertical shuttle, with the bobbin loaded from the front into a bobbin case. The automatic needle threader passes the thread through the eye of the needle in one movement, so changing thread does not mean hunting for glasses or good light. The more often you switch thread colours, the more time it saves, and threading the needle is exactly where beginners usually lose patience first.
Included are an all-purpose foot, zipper foot, buttonhole foot, blind hem foot, button sewing foot, overcasting foot, invisible zipper foot and roller foot, plus a shank. The box also holds a pack of needles, bobbins, thread spool caps, an auxiliary spool pin, a spool pin felt, a darning plate, a needle plate screwdriver and a seam ripper with lint brush. The extension table supports larger pieces such as curtains and tablecloths, and the hard-sided dust cover protects the machine in storage.
The 6199 Brilliance suits anyone who wants a computerised machine with a wide set of feet straight out of the box: a beginner learning to make clothes, and a home sewer who regularly needs invisible zips, buttons, overcast edges and hems. At 7.5 kg it sits steadily on the table, and the hard cover means it can go onto a shelf without dust getting into the mechanism.

Yes. The automatic needle threader, one-step buttonholes and electronic stitch selection cut down on setting up. With eight feet in the box you can insert a zip, sew on a button and do a blind hem without extra attachments.
All-purpose, zipper, buttonhole, blind hem, button sewing, overcasting, invisible zipper and roller foot, plus a shank.
The extension table enlarges the work surface around the needle, so large, heavy pieces such as curtains do not drag the fabric away from the needle. The hard-sided dust cover protects the machine while it stands on a shelf or in a cupboard.
Singer does not place this model in its Heavy Duty series and does not specify a maximum material thickness. For thicker fabrics use a needle made for dense material and a lower speed.
