To be truthful I purchased it as a spare for parts. In the add for it I noticed it had a little damage when they moved it from what ever auction it had gone thru. The seller was not familiar with sewing machines so I offered him $500 pointing out the damage. Once I picked it up I made an attempt to bend the curved bolt that hold the spring for the presser foot on top of the machine. I now have 2 machines. One set up with 277 and the other with 207. And another at my employers. Lol.
My personal collection is 2 bulls a juki DNU1541 and a 30-70 Adler.
