I got frustrated from needing a quick repair or alteration, and have to change from quilting throat plate cover, thread, bobbin. So I have been searching for a second machine. All I really needed to do what straight or zig-zag stiching of different lengths. I found a Singer 6211 for $20, and it sews great! I don't know how old this baby is; will have to do some searching on the Singer web site

Good for u! I wanted the same and ended up with 5!!!

Looks late 80's early 90's. Like a 6234 (with 17 stitches) I have but would happily give away. Also have an old Montgomery Wards machine someone gave me, to give away.

You are very lucky. Happy sewing!

2 are better than 1....
