I have two, black and white (or green as some call it), and my husband is just finishing up making one of the wooden oval cabinets (#68) that were made back in the 50's/60's for these machines. It looks like a side table when not in use but the top comes off and the machine fits in an opening flush with the table top. These cabinets are so cute ... like the featherweight. Both machines fit in the opening with just an added piece to allow the white smaller machine to fit properly. I have not had the chance to use it yet since he is still tweaking it a bit but I already love it. So, yes, buy a featherweight if you find one you can afford. Easy to care for, easy to carry to classes, easy to use.
