Nanamoms, so sorry for your experience. A few months ago I bought my first 301A. As a matter of course, I asked her if she had sewn on it.. yes, she told me of all of the items she had made for her grandkids.
Well, when I started to sew on it, the needle kept falling out. She had it in the machine backwards. Now, how could she have sewn with it if she didn't know the correct way to put the needle in?
I would have purchased it even if she hadn't sewn on it. So, I was left wondering why she felt she had to lie! :roll:
