Riccar machines are really well made!! That is a very nice machine to have and one that is not seen often. I will be the first to say that the Japanese 15's were way better than the Singer 15. The tolerances were a lot closer and you never had the clunky noises from the hook assembly having a sloppy fit. I love my Japanese 15 and it is my go to machine for all of my FMQ!!
