It's all in the personal experience. I have an Alpha Sew that I bought a few years back when I first discovered "The" FW. It is nothing but a piece of ill-machined junk. Others like them, but I would not take money for another one.
As for the limited edition Singer. I'd prefer to play with one and then voice my opinion but with just a quick glance I'd pass.

This little machine is a workhorse and amazingly the only thing plastic on it is the case. Everything else is metal.
interesting info for sure...wonder why they made a cheap looking plastic case for it..when the ALPHA sew replica is metal??
