Yes, I'd like to find a 301 just to have one and try it out. If you see a brown old timey type suitcase, look inside! I'd never have guessed there'd be a sewing machine inside!
The 301 in our class was heavier and bigger than the FW's, but not real heavy like most old Singers. I think the difference in weight between the FW and 301 is less than 5 lbs.

Nancy Here is one with suitcase that someone is asking $175. Too cute! And bit high in price for me.
