I had to look up the 6mm - 9mm thing but I'm really glad you mentioned it. This is one of my main issues with the Kenmore - I can't adjust the needle position and I have no use of the right feed dog, which makes sewing an accurate 1/4" seam very difficult. I have to agree though, the Kenmore is a real workhorse. It doesn't do much but what it does it does well. I won't be getting rid of it.

But try out all of the features when test driving the machine. Also, check to see if it is a 6mm machine or a 9 mm machine. Good luck.
