I finally saw a full picture of the new 160 model that is black like Singer's vintage machines. The text description was sparse. I could not tell if it, since they produced it in black, was made of metal or plastic. Has anyone seen one in person and is it a metal or plastic head? I could not find anything about how much it weighs. Libber

I went to the Singer site & couldn't find it. I would love to know more also. I hope someone else that knows will get us some info.

I haven't seen or heard anything about the new Singer, but personally speaking I wouldn't buy a new Singer, an old one, yes.

the pictures look shiney and pretty...but I have to agree that I wouldn't buy a new singer either.
