I bought a new 403 A singer in 1960 and since then I bought another one on e-bay just like it and I still use both of them.

Nobody has mentioned Janome. I think it is the best made, from cheapest to most expensive. I have had Wards, Kenmore, Bernina and Janome. I would rather sew on either of my two Janomes than my 4 month old Bernina. Well no Janome on page 1 anyway.

my favorite is my 24 year old New Home sewing machine and I have a small Janome for when I use the fancy stitches it has that isn't on the New Home. It is all metal also so it is sturdy. Now a days seems they are all plastic. don't know how odd it is but I prefer the older macnines instead of digital any day.

I have a 870 Viking Sapphire Quilt. Do you have trouble with your bobbin and thread?

I use a Singer 5830C and also have a Pfaff Serger. I'm not impressed with the Singer and want to get a new machine when the budget allows. It was great reading how many of you are in love with your machines.

A Bernina Artista-not the embroidery model, and a Baby Lock SYmphony. I love them both.
