Yup. The therm. are all different. I wanted something easly that I didn't havve to keep adjusting. And I want it to last a really long time. If I spend that much money....It better last. We're super froogle here. But I made a deal with DH. I am giving up gettting a new sewing machine for this. I sold mine to my aunt and my mom gave me my grandmother's. Her's is a Singer Cabnet kind from 1940's. Works great. But doesn't have all the stiches I want. But it's important to me. AND Dh wanted to take vacation next week because they are only working 3 days. But too many people asked offf already and he ended up picking up overtime at the other plant. So the next time they're only working 3 days, he's taking off. He desearves it. He works overtime almost every week.
