I always take my machine to get it serviced.The owner who did the work thought i needed a new needle threader,10 bucks.WELL,i told him there was nothing wrong with it.He just put the old one back on and to this day it's still working.Now I'm having trouble with the machine,well it is over 20 years old and my best friend.Connie in CO
PS don't let that dealer get away with anything!!!!!
