JLM is correct that you can do a ton of neat things with the attachments. I don't have one but I even hear that there is a zig zag attachment.
I sewed on mine for 6 hours straight on Saturday guild sew-in with no problems other then having to refill bobbins.
If you decide to sell it, you will not have a problem finding a buyer.
yes there is a zig zag attachment, it actually holds the fabric and moves it back and forth (sp) I have one and i do not recommed using it as is really stresses the machine. a short run in a class is ok but for any longer area i use my BERNINA 1630 or if it is an edge my serger. IMO you should hang on to that FEATHERWEIGHT with both hands !!!!!!
