Actually, I am talking about the Annversary Singer - sorry that I got that detail wrong. I wouldn't buy a reproduction machine either - I do have a featherweight and love it. I was talking about that new Singer that looks Vintage but with very modern buttons - it is the Anniversary edition and was on HSN - just wondered if anyone has one and if they like it. I realize that Singers are what they used to be - but I was thinking that model might be a good gift for a person who does some sewing but not a lot.
