This is the same Featherweight that you have that the Singer engineers finally got right just rebodied to fit the anniversary. But if you look closely and think about the 222K then you will pick up on a few other neat innovations. I have seen the estimated production figures and they are really low, and this machine will be hand built at the Singer plant and not subbed out so the quality will be outstanding. I love this machine because it is user friendly and is also handicap friendly so it does not discriminate folks that have problems with their hands and are unable to use other machines.
Say what you want but I will be dropping the $1200 for a pair and loving every minute of it.

Is it metal like the FW 75? I wish it had some of the stitches that the FW 75 has.
