I just acquired an old Kenmore Ultra Stitch 6 sewing machine from a Freecycler. I cleaned the machine up, oiled it and changed out the needle for a new one. It runs perfectly, very smoothly! I have no idea how old this machine is, but I am very happy with it. It's very basic, with very few stitch functions, but it will be a nice backup machine. One thing I have noticed is that it is all metal, even the casing, which is something I haven't seen on newer machines. Does anyone have any experience of this particular model?
