Isn't she a beauty? I haven't seen a lot of other people using Kenmore sewing machines but I love mine. My parents gave her to me for my birthday this year and they got a great deal because Sears was getting rid of all of their sewing machines.
What makes her so great? Well, she has enough features that I have every type of stitch and presser foot I could possibly need at this stage in my sewing ability but not too many that I'm overwhelmed. I also love that she doesn't have a drop-in bobbin set up because I hear that it's hard to use elastic thread with a drop-in bobbin and I'm a big elastic thread fan. And there's a great handle on top and hidden storage compartment on the bottom. She also came with a great instruction manual that taught me a lot! I was really intimidated when I first opened the box!
When not in use I keep her in this cabinet that Greg and I rescued from the side of the road a few years ago. Our kitty Hope loves it when I take the machine out and leave the doors open.
See my iron and sewing machine peddle behind her? |

My mom bought me a Kenmore sewing machine after we got married but I'm embarrassed to say that I never used it very much, other than to use the cabinet it was in to store things on! I wish now that I hadn't gotten rid of it!
