I am in the market for a small, lightweight sewing machine and have become aware that Singer is making a new Fatherweight. Is 2011 the 1st year the new ones are being made? Has anyone purchased one and if so, do you like it? What are the pros and cons of owning this machine? Thanks in advance for your comments.

No, this is not the first year for them. Singer re-cycled the featherweight name quite a few years ago. The new featherweight isn't that great. If you can afford it, I would get a Janome Jem instead -- very lightweight and portable.
