Pretty high price in my opinion. This machine takes the obsolete CC, 40F1 needle, which is hard to find. However, the needlebar can usually be raised 1.8mm to use the 15x1 needle. If the motor is bad it can not be replaced and the motor pulley is quite often found with a flat spot on it from resting against the handwheel. Check all these things out before buying.

I think it's a steal. There is no where in America you could buy a FAKE wood cabinet for that price - And the money goes to our Veteran's. Bottom line is will you use it ?? If not then the price is a bit steep for a nic-nac.

For that cabinet, yes I would. I love New Homes because of the greyhound logo but they often take their own needles, feet, etc. so can be inconvenient. If it comes with loads of needles, bobbins & feet, I'd absolutely add another to my house.
