That machine is a Singer 15CH, it is a newer (the last 10 or so years) machine that is made in China. How do you like using it?

I have heard some really bad reviews of the machine, like the stitch regulators coming loose, and the hook assembly will start catching after you have used it for heavier material. Iwalked by a couple of them at a flea market in the Chinese treadles for $45 for the pair. I did notice that the treadles were flimsy and the drawers were very sloppy and these were new machines.

But I like the treadle that yours is in!
