I had to buy another one to take to my condo in Florida. I did not want to take the machine back and forth to Buffalo. I would miss my little friend too much. Thank you Singer, for making me want to sew again. This machine is too easy, I even made my grandkids Holloween costumes, 1st time in years that I actually wanted to do it. I find all kinds of excuses to sew now. Keep doing a great job with the specs on your products.
