I have a Wizard that I have had since 1965. My DH gave it to me for Christmas the year before we got married. It still works. I sewed all my clothes on it for years and sewed for our daughter. It is solid blue. I loaned it to my brother for several years and the cams got misplaced, made me sick, I hadn't been able to find any to replace them. I would suggest oiling everything and using a hair dryer to loosen that reverse button. Mine runs very quiet.
