Mine is a very good sewing machine.
Both Kenmores can be cleaned and oiled and brought back to life. They'll use the same cord sets, bobbins and other things. Accessories for both are common on ShopGW.

The Kenmores will be easy peasy. One takes a plug in cord set the other is hardwired and will need a re-do but I've done a few of those. I probably have all the attachments I need. The one came with a full box of goodies, the other I will have to root around in my boxes of "stuff".
I still have my eye out for a Kenmore that can chainstitch. I have the attachment and would love to try that out!
