Our sewing machine repair consultant worked for Singer for YEARS. He verified that this is a heavy duty / industrial grade machine, good for sewing denim, leather, etc for personal projects or as a cottage industry (not in industrial amounts). He said that in the sewing world, this machine is called a "clone" of the Singer 15 machine.

At the end of WWII the US government gave the Japanese the blueprints to the Singer 15 sewing machine to help rebuild Japan's economy (and Singer was no longer making them). And the benefit is that these clones have upgrades from the original Singer machines - they run smoother and have extra features like reverse stitch, zig zag, an easy switch to raise and lower the feed dogs, as well as the chrome hand wheel instead of the painted ones that seem to get chipped. They are work-horses, and often quite beautiful like this one! You're sure to love her.

A beautiful sewing machine in turquoise and pastel blue with shiny chrome details. A lovely machine, all original. Her wiring is in great condition - the wires are still soft and pliable - ready for years to come. In great condition, as seen in the photos. Completely serviced and ready for you.

Straight stitch, with adjustments for pressure and tension. Zig zag stitches - lots to choose from on the knob - no cams necessary. Generous harp area (work area between needle and right side). Included in this set is are some extra attachments and bobbins (she uses Singer 15 bobbins - inexpensive and easy to find online or in sewing shops). We are also including a printed copy of the manual for this model of sewing machine.
