My dad bought my mom a Nechhi BU in the 1950's shortly after they were married. It came with all of the attachments and is the only machine our family has owned. I use it to this day making clothing and quilts. I wouldn't trade it for any other machine. I do however take it in every 5 or 6 years for a check up and nothing is ever wrong with it except a belt needing replacement.

Who cares if it's a press release or not? I find it interesting and you don't. So what!! And if you make accusations, try backing them up with some facts Mark.
