I only ask because I have several 3/4 size machines, both Singer and imports and I haven't noticed a lot of vibration. But then I tend to sew slow more than fast.

For sure, higher speeds. Since I'm a speed sewer, it's noticeable to me. These aren't the only machines that do this. I've had other models by many different manufacturers that have vibration issues at high speeds. Some even at low speeds. I have several machines that are so cute I can't part with them, but do the same thing Miriam said. They like to bounce around on the table. I put quilted items or towels under them and it helps, but is still not my favorite to piece on. There's a bearing under the 99 feed dogs that can get a flat spot from being "stuck" over time that can really turn them into mover and shakers. But, they're so cute that they're still hard for me to let go of.
