Oh, I forgot to tell you I received a buttonhole attachment and a zig zag attachment with my machine.

I know one of them is a darning foot and the other I am not sure. It is a bigger box and I forgot to look inside.

I can tell you that you'll love the 301. she runs quietly in comparison to almost any machine. She weighs 18 #, so you can take her with you when you go to a workshop, or someone else's home. She is easy to maintain on your own.

Yes, I would buy it, serviced and ready to go absolutely. It would be a better purchase than the Godzilla 99 for $125.00 you inquired about.
