I believe that the 707 is a 3/4 machine, 5 stitches, and no button hole cams in the machine. That said..I have two 802's which are very similar. They were Bernina's attempt at a featherweight for classes, etc which were very popular. They are heavy, but who cares... Nice machines. Use Triflow grease and oil for lubing. They should last forever but Judy is correct, they do have some plastic in them. The problem is, Bernina's factory was flooded in the 60's and there are no replacement parts they are making for the machines. You can find them, but you'll have to search and beg, especially with the dealers. Enjoy.
