Turns out the Brother I wanted is filled to the brim with plastic parts, so I decided to go with my Sally because the inside frame is all solid metal (as are most new Singers for anyone wondering). And, a year later, Sally is still sewing like a dream! Not everyone likes Singers, but I love mine!
I have noticed...in my research.... That many of the Singers actually do have metal frames now.... Do you think the Singer people have actually been listening to us? I hope Singer gets it's good reputation back... That's because I secretly (it 's out now) want one... That's because I grew up thinking that Singer and Sewing were synonymous.

How do you like your new machine?
