I love my FW. It is my main machine and has been for 20 years. Thanks to my relatively newly acquired vintage machine addiction I am now going to be testing it to the 66, 201, and hopefully soon 301 and Pfaff 130 to compare. I love how the FW sews, very smooth, quiet, easy to move/carry, and with very nice stitching. It has always made me feel good just to simply see it. Now, my other vintage machines make me feel good to look at too, so we will see...
