I don't think the machine itself is that ugly but the cabinet it is in sure is.

I own one of these beauties. It was my DGMs. I call it my shark skin and it can do anything you ask of it. Pretty isn't everything.

I have always kind of liked the "Godzilla" finish and that one sure was a better deal than the first 301 Singer that I have spotted in my lookings. I was checking out at the local antique Mall yesterday with my half gallon Blue Ball jar that I use as cabinet top ornaments, filled with beans, when I looked up, for some reason and there way up high on top of some cabinet was a shiny black Singer 301. I almost heard celestial music. The only one that I have searched for, for several years. Price on it is $340. I foolishly asked if he didn't want to trade for one of my black Featherweights, but he just snickered and said he didn't think so.

One like it in our local SA White with same finish and dark cabinet. $300.00 (cough,cough). Heavy not attachments does have power cord and knee pedal.

I like it. If I were nearby, that would have already gone home with me. froggyintexas

That's a serious looking machine. No frivolous stitching with that one. Cabinet leaves a bit to be desired, though

I learned to sew on my mom's Singer 66 crinkle finished machine and I really like the crinkle finishes. And I like this machine's simple lines. $50 is a bit much for my budget but I agree with others, I sure do like the looks of this machine.

My grandmother had one of these and I loved it. It was really a work horse and never gave her any problems.

The cabinet looks very similar to the dressers in my mom's bedroom! Kind of makes me nostalgic - she's had them since before I was born. But no more old machines until I fix the two that I have!!
