I bought a featherweight on E-bay several months ago. The machine came with the case, foot pedal, book and several feet and bobbins. When I opened the box, the musty smell was awful. I had to air out the machine and wipe down. It's a beautiful machine, but still has musty smell. The pedal is another story - cannot get rid of any of the smell. The case is so bad, I will have to get rid of it. I have tried everything. The seller would not budge. She stated I had an opportunity to ask questions before I purchased. I did ask many questions but failed to specifically ask "does it smell?" She did nothing to adjust this purchase. Buyer beware!
