About this machine

The SINGER Simple 3223 is a mechanical domestic sewing machine with 23 built-in basic, stretch and decorative stitches, a four-step buttonhole, adjustable stitch length and a front-loading Class 15 transparent bobbin system. SINGER also documents a 15.2 cm needle-to-tower sewing space, extra-high presser-foot lifter and heavy-duty metal frame.

Simple 3223 is a mechanical MA-group machine

SINGER's current machine-type page places Simple 3223 in the MA mechanical group.

The bobbin claim is unusually clear

SINGER's live product page explicitly says to use Class 15 transparent bobbins and lists three Class 15 bobbins in the included accessories. This exact-model evidence is stronger than guessing from a generic Simple-series parts list.

3223 color variants

SINGER's current page links 3223Y, 3223G and 3223R color versions alongside the base 3223.
