  • If you can find one of these and get it serviced, you just might end up with a great little machine.

      They’re practical little machines for sewing just about all your light and medium weight fabrics. 😎👍🏼

    What a shame that the greatest name in sewing completely lost it. Look at general motors today. They used to be General Motors. Shot themselves in the feet. That's why I love 158 series Kenmores, and drive a Nissan.

      They turned Singer over to the bean counters. Didn’t take long to go to zero after that. It’s an all too familiar story lately. Sad.

    I really appreciate your pointing out the difference between current gears, etc vs what we find in the classic machines. I may be a simplistic comprehender, but I have so much admiration for the classic features. I figured out a few years ago that I could not save every classic machine I found in thrift stores, but at more than 26 machines that I own, it was time to stop, since every one of them will have to be serviced before I go home .... it was time to stop!
    I enjoy learning what I actually own ... have never seen this machine, but it is good to know that they are still around.

      When you find that you’ve run out of floor space, as I often do, find a local charity that can use the machines and give until you can’t give any more. It’s a win/win situation for all concerned.😎👍

    I didn't know So-Fro Fabrics even had those machines. It looks nice, but I think I'll stick with my Kenmore 158s, instead. Looking at a mauve Kenmore 47 model with its original blonde wood cabinet. Not sure the husband will agree, though. 🤔

      Husbands get in the way of many a brilliant decision. (Some wives also)
      Not mine mind you, she’s never wrong.

    A new WalMart Singer makes a decent light craft boat anchor, but it’s tough hosing the mud and weeds out of them…

      That’s hilarious, but I used a similar Singer back in my boating days.
      The reactions I got ranged from stares to smiles. 😎👍🏼
