Default Singer 648 worth keeping?

I went to a new thrift store looking for a an extra sewing machine to keep around the house. They had a Singer 648. The women there had no clue about machines so they told me to just take it home and if it worked and I wanted to keep it, I could go back and give them a donation for it.

Here are some photos of it:

It didn't come with a cabinet. It is pretty dirty on the outside. I really want it to be a back up to my current machine. Is it worth keeping it? I'd love to learn to clean and work on machines. Could I do it on this one? Or take it back and keep looking?

ETA: I did plug it in and it does work. Haven't tried threading it and sewing on it, though.
Thanks!ScheduleSchedule
