Billy or someone can you explain that last statement? What made the 201 so special? Does the 201 say 201 on the arm so if I find one I will know it is a 201?

The 201 is the smoothest machine that Singer ever made! I use my model 15 for FMQ and the feed dogs drop on it also. I love to FMQ on a treadle you have lots of control and can take your time if you want to.
