I’ve looking into purchasing a sewing machine. This will be my first so I’m not quite sure what to look for. I want something that lasts so I’m not afraid to pay the price. I’ve noticed online that anything more than $100 means LCD computerized screens or 100+ stitch options which just seem like not something I’ll end up needing. I’d just like a basic one that is durable and not too big or heavy. The one above here is one I’m looking at which is only $85 on overstock.com (and only $2.50 shipping). Most of the ones on overstock, including this one, is ‘factory reconstructed’ which makes me a little nervous. This one has gotten really good reviews though and I like the storage underneath. But the question is… will is last? Any recommendations from all you marthas out there?
