I LOVE my 128's they do not seem to realize how small they are, Personally I am using one of mine at the moment to sew a weird old Haver Sack, out of 10 oz canvas painters tarp.. and I am using a salvaged leather couch as binding.
Tough compact, NICE stitches and a little Funky, what more could you want ? ( well ok reverse, lightweight, and smoother.. and maybe a Zigzag stitch...) but I am certain that my machine will be useable long after I no longer am.
