301s are going to be the next hot thing like the FWs. They have already gone up in price. I haul mine to quilting classes rather than wear on the FW. I like sewing on it better anyway. Don't have to worry about it. Mine was nasty too when it arrived. I have become quite attached to it. They are still quite affordable, but going up every day.

"Sewing machines" are by nature maintenance intensive. Very much like the old steam locomotives. They need oil, care, proper storage, cleaning and use if they are to remain in good condition.
Ignore them and they deteriorate.

And take care of them, and they go forever! Like some of the trains you see on the UK shows.
