    Question Does anyone recognize this Singer?

    I came across this on CL today for $50 and I'm curious as to what model machine this is. I really just want the cabinet should it fit a 15-91 or 66. Thanks for your help.

    Those machines should fit that table - it is a touch and sew - some times they work some times they make you want to rip your hair out.

    Definitely a Touch and Sew by Singer. I hated mine. If I were lucky it worked 10% of the time. My DH at the time thought I shhould have something in a nice cabinet instead of a portable (Necchi which I loved) sitting in the closet and using a table to sew on. Grrrr !!!! Every time I had it worked on he told me what a "Great machine you have." I always told him it wasn't, but he always disagreed. I suppose because it was metal and not plastic.

    Thanks everyone!! I had a nice conversation with the woman who was selling it. I told her I really didn't want the machine but would take the table/cabinet if it the opening met the specifications for a 15-91 (which I provided to her). She measured it and the opening was too large. She I can strike that one off the list.

    EEEEK!!! Its Singer Golden Touch and Sew. My Mom had one and it was the crankiest, worst machine ever made.
    I hated having to use it. I've heard that some people were fortunate enough to have one that worked as advertised.

    LOL! That seems to be the prevailing opinion around here.
