Some one is selling a Singer Model 2732 for 100.00 it has 60 build in stitches ...was wondering if anyone knows anything about this machine.

I just googled and read some things about this machine. After talking to the owner of my LQS a few months ago, if I was going to purchase another machine in this price range, I would try a Janome.

Valerie, The OLD Singers are amazing machines but I've heard a lot of not-so-good things about the modern ones. They are no longer made my Singer :(
But I don't have a newer one, just telling you things I've read from people who have them.

I have 3 old Singers that I love. About 10 years ago my Mom and I went sewing machine shopping for. We went to a local shop that always repairs my machines. We looked and I was drawn to a Singer. The owner told us that the new Singers are made of plastic and don't hold up as well, so my Mom bought a Brotjer. I was getting a machine worked on about 5 years at the same shop and there was a woman leaving without a machine, which since she didn't come in with one I thought was strange. The manager said her Singer motor had died and she was thinking about putting a new motor in her old machine as the newer ones don't hold. I trust him with my "babies" so I would carefully look at the machine. :roll: :roll:
