Default Childs Singer machine at Auction
This machine is at an auction. It is advertised as a child's machine. Does anyone know anything about this machine?
Thanking y'all in advance!

Looks like a plastic toy sewing machine. Looks to be in nice shape, though.

It is a plastic toy. I almost bought one for my niece until I was advised not to, due to poor stitch quality.

I was gifted one of these a few years ago, gave it to Good Will. It's all plastic. Made in China. Battery or hand crank. For the display space it will take up, I'd rather have a vintage toy.

That one looks to be actually usable as a sewing machine, as opposed to the plastic one in the OP.
