I have four, which is really three too many. I hate that three of them don't see any action. Seems unfair to the machine. That being said, I'm not planning to get rid of any of them, but I hope I can resist buying any more.

I rotate through my 3 Featherweights, so they all get used.

I'd say just one, but that's just me. An office cubicle would be bigger than the sewing space I have so I guess its harder for me to imagine how anyone would have the room for 4 sewing machines. But if you're going to use it and have space for it then why the heck not. Go for it.

The one that dies with the most toys WINS!!!! I too have 7.
One Metallic Blue, 3 black and a celery colored one. I also have 2 taken completely apart, stripped and waiting for me to get the energy to paint them.

I think I have 9. One greenish one, one 222 and all the rest are 221's of various years. Every machine is different.

Thanks all for your thoughts on this! I suprized myself and I did not buy this machine. My house is small and too full of stuff that I don't use. I do tend to over-kill with things I love. I'm working on restraint! Thanks again!
