    OH boy, it even has a knee apparatus for working the pedal. I began sewing on an Singer that I could operate with knee. WHY don't the new machine offer this?

    Think you won the bargin of the month!

    Hey, I was in that store the day before you and I almost bought that machine! I really liked the pink color, but now I'm glad I left it for you. I'm happy for you!
    I looked at the Kenmore too after I figured out that it was a sewing machine too and not just a beat up desk. I had a Kenmore like that years ago but it didn't last.
