Need wise advice:
I have an opportunity to get a well priced 201K in a cabinet ($50) with electric knee control (manuf in Great Britain and I think belt driven). It looks good but it was the grandmother's and the son (who is selling it) does not know much about it. He says it "runs" (which could mean anything)and has misc attachments and accessories (but he is not sure what they are). Selling for $50.
Or, there is a lady selling a #404 (with accessories) she says is in good working order....asking $90. Cabinet is not much to look at. Thoughts regarding which to get?
I am a beginning sewer (not sure if I will keep at it or not) and just want something simple and inexpensive in a cabinet. I did sew on my Mom's Singer (when I was younger). I tend to like solidly built machines that don't break down a lot and have easy to get parts (no special needle sizes etc). I think both are "straight stitchers"....my thought is if I want to "zig zag" someday I will just get an attachment. Thoughts?
