Please check our prices, and these facts, before considering gimmick advertising.

Simkins Sewing Machines has been in the Kingston area for 148 years, selling and servicing top quality sewing machines!


Domestic Sewing Machines are NOT industrial strength. To be industrial strength, they have to be driven by a 1/3 horsepower motor or more.


We sell Sewing Machines all the time for $199.00 and you do not need the Ad to get the price.


No machine has Stitch Functions.  The machine may have straight, zigzag, blind hem, Mending and Buttonhole. these are stitches.


Functions are additional sewing jobs that a stitch can do. for example, Zig Zag can be used to Applique, Monogram, Satin Stitch, Button sew, Buttonhole, Bartack stitch, etc But it is still a zig zag!


We at V.B Simkins Sewing Machines Do not believe in Gimmick Selling. We rely on our good name in the sales and service of sewing machines in eastern Ontario, and Our Service is number one!
