I had never seen one either until I was searching on eBay for a featherweight. The Elna "grasshopper" is sometimes listed as a featherweight and that is where I saw it. Then, I did some research and found that some preferred it to the Singer. The ad had a video with the machine sewing and it was very smooth and quiet. I was guessing by how it looked that it had more room under the light than a featherweight and I had to have one. The one drawback is that parts are harder to find if needed. Everyone has Singer parts!
