jennb, Ah Yes! I looked back and can see this machine was discussed in June. Quite an amusing discussion too! :-)

If he has had that up before April he was probably hoping some hubby would get it for his wife for St. Pats day.

I have sold one like it for more. I think those are a nice machine. Check to make sure everything turns and moves. Bobbin winder, reverse - all knobs and levers, etc. Take plenty of time looking it over.

thanks i will be sure and pay attention before i pay for it. do these have alot of plastic parts?

I can't remember but not many plastic parts if they do - heavy machine - I have a few of those around right now and every one of them is similar but work a bit different... as far as I know they are pretty good machines - not new enough to be junk. I've only cleaned them - I haven't sewn much with them - I should test them out a bit and see how I like them. I must have a good dozen Kenmore zz machines right now. Too bad you don't live close... I have one that has knobs sorta like that - you have to know what you are doing to make it do what you want it to - my sister had it all figured out and then she went back to Mesa and I forgot how she showed me... I think I need some manuals.
