I agree with everyone - use it and enjoy it - just make sure your wiring is good. Look for worn areas or cuts in the wires, check for softening of the wires and follow the wiring to the lamp while you are checking and look for cracking or flaking. If you find any of the above, rewire it. It is pretty straight forward to do yourself or pay your neighborhood mister fix-it a few bucks to do it for you.
There is nothing better than sewing on a machine that is as solid and precise as a vintage machine.
I have a computerized embroidery/sewing machine. It has never sewn a quilt. All my piecing is done on vintage machines.
