Nancy, I wanted a LBOW, too, as Annie is a mocha, but when I went without Annie for almost two weeks because the SM guy had as much trouble as I did getting the plug back together, I gave up and bought the first one that I could win in my price range. They can share the attachments and Annie is slated for a paint job, though if I have back surgery, I doubt that I'll be lifting machines, even a light one. The White Rotary weighs in at 39 pounds. There is no needle in it so I can't compare. I'll have to find the needle/machine site. I can put in 15X1 and see what happens. I'll try to get a picture tomorrow. A family member has been diagnosed with kidney cancer and I'm the only caretaker, so I have been sitting in ICU and have to travel next week. [ATTACH=CONFIG]345566[/ATTACH]
