8452.10.00.10 - Valued not over $20 each

This HTS subheading specifically classifies household-type sewing machines that have a declared value not exceeding $20.00 each. This economic criterion is the sole distinguishing factor for items falling under this category, encompassing a broad range of domestic sewing machines intended for personal or home use, provided they meet the specified value threshold.

The primary distinction between this subheading and its sibling, 8452.10.00.90 ("Other"), lies exclusively in the per-unit value. While both subheadings pertain to household-type sewing machines, 8452.10.00.90 covers those valued at more than $20.00 each. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the declared customs value of the individual sewing machine.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. All items meeting the criteria of being a household-type sewing machine and valued at $20.00 or less will be classified here. Examples would include very basic, entry-level domestic sewing machines designed for simple tasks, often manufactured with cost-effectiveness as a primary consideration.
