This vintage Kenmore 158.17032 sewing machine is in good working order. I have cleaned it up, greased it, and oiled it. It has straight, zig-zag, and built in cams for other patterns. Additionally, this machine accepts the Kenmore decorative stitch cams.
This machine is in good working condition and all the stitches have been tested. The Kenmore brand from this period is known for its precision manufactured, high-quality products. There are no plastic gears or rubber timing belts so it will last for decades. It is very easy to service compared to singers because everything is easy to access without taking out screws. This machine does not have a case but does have the hinges attached for mounting on a case or putting in a table. It will function without a case.
Nice Japanese made Kenmore model 158.17032. This quality vintage machine is much more durable then newer plastic machines.
