A Singer Featherweight is only available in the Singer 221 or 222 model categories and is made of cast aluminum, weighing little more than 11 pounds. It also includes a quick-identification function with a sewing surface or bed extension that pops up on the left side (see photo below), letting it to pack into its case more compactly. The Featherweight has an extendable throat that locks into place when in use and folds down against the body when not in use. This design allows the machine to be more compact when packed away. The 221 models are black with red print details while the 222 models have white plastic parts instead. Both models come with a 10-year warranty from the date of purchase. The Featherweight works on the same basic principle as other Singers: Thread the film through the camera's lens, pull the trigger, and watch your photos roll out. There's no need for a dark room or special skills to take amazing pictures - even kids can do it!
