I got a great deal from a place in Columbus Ohio ... $900.00

I do mostly piecing of tops but also do some craft sewing. I also have been teaching my 3 GC to sew for several years.
How much do you sew? How much wear and tear does the machine get?
I sew almost every day so it gets lots of wear and tear.
Do you like/love/hate your machine? Are you ambivalent? Passionate? Does she have a name?
I love love love my machine ... all of them actually. No name.

My favorite feature is the auto thread cutter, saves so much time. And I like the auto threader too.

Nothing.

A friend took a computer table and cut a hole in it so my sweet machine would fit down into it.

Absolutely. It's a wonderful machine, a great workhorse and never lets me down.
What factors do you think are important to consider when looking for a new machine? Is it a workhorse, rearely needing repair. Do others love it too.
Do you have a dream machine? I own it, Janome.

I have 2 machines, an old Kenmore (I HATE it) and a 1948 Featherweight which I love. My problem is that I don't like sitting at a machine to sew but when I do you can't beat an old featherweight for that sweet seam.
Crispy
That's the same machine I have, and it's been very good to me!
