I bought the same machine and cabinet only not painted at the Salvation Army for $8 last summer and it is a super good machine. Great stitches and she is a work horse. I replaced a zipper in a Carhart coat and it was like a hot knife thru butter. Then I repaired a seam in my favorite T shirt and no adjustments were necessary. It has the knee bar instead of a foot pedal and I love it -no more chasing the lost pedal. You will love sewing on on it.
