I have a black & a white FW. When I got each one, I took them apart and cleaned them myself. Oiled and greased them. Tightened the belt if needed. Cleaned the bobbin area. It wasn't hard at all. They both purr like kittens. I don't use them very often, but they run beautiful

All great suggestions! Another good resource is Nova Montgomery (http://www.novamontgomery.com/singer...-the-month.htm). I took her class last year and it was excellent. Have fun and enjoy your new baby. Betty

Congratulations. I just spent 3 days sewing with one of ours at a quilt retreat. So much nicer than trying to work with big machine because space was tight. The stitches were as nice as theirs or better.
