I've never owned a 101 but got the impression that the motor, electrics, and wicks were a pain and not worth the trouble from a utilitarian stand point. The 201 seems to be a much better machine and easier to work on. From a collecting stand point I'd go with the more expensive complete machine for $60 which seems about right. Keep in mind these machines are easier to accumulate than decumulate. Good Luck.
