The Singer 99 sews a fine stitch as do the majority of the old Singer straight stitchers. I have a nice one that will soon be powered by hand crank for my grand daughters. I bought my 99K at the local antique consignment store for $75 haggled down from $110 as there was no footpedal or cords, its in very good condition. It came with a 220 volt singer motor, it came off as soon as I got it home. I tried the hand crank from my Singer 201k & it works perfectly. I'm quite sure that it was originally a hand cranked machine as the case top fits perfectly with the hand crank still attached to the machine.
