I'm amazed. . . the Kenmore was my mother's machine which I learned to
hate -- literally chewed up anything with a soft hand, and refused
crossed seams completely.

Fran, I am still singing the wonders of a Kenmore 158: series.
Replaced my Beloved of over 30 years with a Pfaff "Jeans and satin".
The pfaff really has lived up to its hype and does not require a
transition period between fibers...just like the Kenmore of the
'70s. But for rugged costume mileage, it was always at MY beck and
call. Picked up a free arm last month on e-Bay that never saw much
sewing even though it was advertised as used. While searching, came
across a number of them New and some with cases for about $200. My
original one (1972) had key cams that I seldom used...but I love the
button-holer, also with keys Great when you need to make dozens!
