I have several vintage machine. I love these machines but they are loud. I hear others comment that their singer221 and 301s are quiet. Mine are not.
My only modern machine is Babylock Symphony. It is quieter than my vintage machines.
I don't mind purchasing a new machine. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
I have found that if you are using a free standing machine, setting them on mouse pads makes them much quieter since it muffles any table noise.
