Why isn't there a compromise between a long arm machine and a traditional machine???

Nana,
This is the exact color of my machine. I stitched with it and was
amazed how well it stitched still! (course you could have read that in
my above post, but ...) Do you have any of the accessories or manual?
I found a page on a Precision Deluxe (can't remember brand) but it was
nearly identical to mine with difference in the coating and the site
owner had kindly scanned every page on the manual so it could be read.
If you want the link let me know!

I can use any info like that. We pass things around on the Vintage
lists a lot and these are a common machine. I have also had
Precisions in Pink, Yellow and Fire engine Red. All were excellent
stitcher's and did really good buttonholes. I normally try to start
some of my new sewists out on machines like this. Just set it up to
do repairs or alterations and you have on ready all the time.

Yes, most are 15 class clones. Solid machines but not long arm.

Oh, yeah, not a long arm.
I turned it on last night and stitched a bit with it and was so
surprised how neat and accurate the stitches were!
Can't find any info on it in particular, but there are lots like it,
one particularly called a Precision Deluxe.

Janome is also doing the Pfaff, HV and Brother machines. There are
several places that also do stretched machines ......they take a
standard Singer 15 machine and add more onto the harp of the machine,
sometimes up to 18". I have only seen 3 but they all worked great.
