I have a 127. It is sitting in parts right now, and I've never used it. I also have a 66 with the Red Eye decals in a treadle, which I've used to piece 1 lap quilt top. If I had to choose 1, I'd stick with the 66. You can find replacement bobbins for both, but I've seen metal 66 bobbins even at Wal-Mart, so it would be easier to find those. But who knows, if the 127 were all together and running perfectly, that might be what made me happy!
