Great Buy!! I love singer sewing machines. I have collected afew. I got one in a nice cabinet at goodwill on 1/2 day off sale for 45.00 it sews like new. That is what I like about singers plus I like the cast iron metal they have a sound of there very own. I sew on a Janome custom embroidery 9500 and a Janome mid arm 1600. I'm still undecided on which long arm I want in the future.
