I have one that does not have a home sewing brand printed on it and yes I paid $20 for it. I bought that from a husband though, who bought it for his wife for clothing and found out she was not using it anyway. Not someone who sews.

And I have to agree with her. For clothing using a whole large ironing board is just as fast because of more room to work before having to move the clothes. But for steam the mini press is much better. It holds more water and has more channels to keep that water hotter. How much steam do quilters use? I am steaming and fusing interfacing.

To go back to topic, I am cleaning the Singer 66 a little more every day. And I got off the track playing with the Kenmore 1217. And I saw buttonhole scissors on a very local sale and bought those. They are plenty sharp on the blades but have a strange perpendicular knob locking system which is stuck. Which I keep forgetting to take a picture of.
