ya know after further investigation, for $150 and what I initially thought it was, I guess it's not worth that much to me. Sounds like it has oil lubrication system with reservoir, 5/16" foot height, and no walking foot, it will not really sew some of the leather projects I have thought about. It looks like a decent unit, but not quite what I wanted....good for heavy fabrics, but not for heavy leather. Still interested in your thoughts....
