Well, I got it today. I paid $150.00. In hindsight, I could probably have gotten it for less. The photos posted on craigslist were very good photos. It is a well used machine and very dirty. It belonged to the wife's grandmother. It has all of the manuals and all of the attachments and it has a knee controller, which I will remove. There are so many attachments that I have no clue what they do. I recognized the zipper foot and I think it has a ruffler. The other ones are a big mystery to me.

I'll have to start boning up on cleaning a machine with that finish. It's starting to look kind of yucky.

Very nice! I absolutely love using a knee controller, you should give it a chance. If you don't like it, no need to remove it, just slip the controller out of the bracket and push the lever up out of the way.

I don't know.

In high school, back in the olden days, the machines had knee controllers. I was used to a foot controller. I hated those darn things. Besides, we made really ugly clothes.
