I really need help. I saw a singer 15-91 today that was made in 1952. It is in a refinished cabinet with drawers and has a bench seat with it. It has some attachments, one might be a button hole attachment, and the instruction book. Do I need it? Probably not, but should I get it? I have a Featherweight and a 99 that I have acquired since May. Any good reasons why I should get it. I haven't found any info on the net about them that is helpful at this time. If I am to get it, I need some concrete ideas of why to get it to pose to my husband about it. I know the attachments will fit the other two machines, but is this enough to warrant getting it? HELP!!

Depending on the price, we can give you all sorts of "reasons" to tell your husband. :)

Yes it would depend on what they are asking for it.

They are asking $50.00 for it. I can always ask if they will take less.

I have one and absolutely love it. It was one that my mom was given as a wedding present, so it is 1950. But it still runs great. And the fact that the button hole attachment fits the featherweight is a big plus because those attachments can cost a bundle.

By any chance does the bench open up for storage?

If you have $50 and you have the room....go get it.

I think that is an excellent "excuse"!

15-99? I'm not familiar with that one.

If you meant 15-91, then by all means you need it!! The feed dogs drop for FMQ. Large harp for FMQ. Super straight stitch.
