i have a friend who has 4 of these for sale right now including one of the "celery" with the colored cases... I ran them side by side and although the "white" was quieter then two of the blacks, it was about the same as the oldest of the four.

I too have a beautiful sleek blushing celery FW. She sews very quiet but has such a powerful motor that she feel like a small locomotive. The little sewing machine that could! The first pic shows the on off light switch, second pic shows the plastic stitch selector knob. It is very nice as plastic goes, nothing wrong here and the last pic is of the plastic bobbin wheel. it too works just fine.

I would not hesitate to buy another one in white. Not many were made so all around a fun neat desirable VERY collectible little machine and sleek and cute as can be. I was getting so tired of black and brown I really wanted a white FW and am glad I found one.

I have four of the 221's. I use one of them and I'm in the process of restoring the others. I can paint them whatever color I want and white might be an option. I'd do 'WHITE" and not attempt to do the celery color. I wouldn't want to attempt to disguise it as an original 'white' machine.
