Went to my local Salvation Army today and from a distace
thought I have found a singer treasure rotfl........Up close it said Commander on body of it....Came home and looked it up.....Made by sears in the 50's......Spitting image of a singer so I learned something new today..............he he he

My knockoff is a "Faultless"... Hopefully it will be in working condition before too long! I want to treadle some quilts on it.

Some of them aren't 'knockoffs', but a similar product made by another company. Kenmore were good machines. As far as the Faultless goes, it could be made by anyone and just badged for that company.
