    It's a Touch Tronic! I call her the beast because she is so heavy! It really is a better machine than my fancy Husqvarna!

    I have a new Viking Sapphire and while I love my machine, I would trade you any day! They just don't make the machines like they used to so I say use yours 'til it dies!! :)

    I had that exact same machine! My husband bought it for me for my birthday in July of 1980. We had been married for 1 year at the time. I 'retired' it in 2000 when I bought my Viking.

    Nice machine. My favorite is an Elna Supermatic that I bought back in the early '70's. A real work horse. Needless to say it does not have a computer.
