What a bummer, I hated when I had to get another identical machine when after a year the motor burned up. Good thing I was still working and the next night I bought another on line with free shippping. It took 3 months and $380.00 to get the motor and have it installed. I do love these machines and everything about them. Some people on this board have found an old machine for not much money at all. If you have a Goodwill or Salvation Army stores close by, you may want to check them often.
Good luck. Happy hand sewing until you get another or get that one repaired.
