I am like a couple of you folks who don't like the "off center" needle. Just throws my equilibrium completely out of whack--and I am really good with a sewing machine. And cannot tolerate a noisy machine--so you can imagine that I don't like the newer/new machines--that noisy roar makes me crazy after awhile of sitting there sewing. I have a new Janome that the dealer promised me "quiet"--well it isn't, and now it is too late for me to take it back. So I guess a grandkid will be getting a new sewing machine for Christmas.

Ya know, I realized that IF there was a real (3:1) hand crank for the featherweight, I might be tempted to try one out for awhile...
