Mine was a Kenmore that my parents bought used & gave to me for Christmas when I was 20. It is in a cabinet & folds down. It has lots of stitches, no free arm & weighs a ton! I still love the overcast stitch & the buttonhole on it. I need to check it out, but I think it was made in the mid 60's. I still have it-just can't part with it, but haven't used it much lately & it needs to be serviced. I wish it had an odometer becuase I would love to know how many miles I sewed on that machine!
