I am so glad to hear that others have this 'obsession' too. I have about 10 or 11 now. I am going to find a home for some of them in September. I need to destash my fabric, clean up my sewing supplies and sell some of these machines. I bought them for my grandchildren but so far, only the boys wanted to sew, or at least, they used to. I love the old Singer's, they are so beautiful and sew so good. Oh well....
