The finish, which is bright and shiny, has very few usage marks as can be seen in the photographs.
The decals are a deep golden color.
The sewing bed is removable so that the machine can be used as a freearm sewing machine.
The throat plate is a graduated throat plate.
The light and switch both work as does the bobbin winder and the foot control.
The case is in excellent condition. It is clean both inside and out. The latches work very well.
The attachments are shown below and include the darning foot and embroidery hoop.
The box for the hoop has been squished. It has been taped back together. The hoop is in excellent condition.
The embroidery hoop was the only 222K specific attachment that was made specifically for the 222K and that was an option to purchase.
The original manual and is in French as this 222K came from St John, Quebec, which by coincidence, is where the Singer factory used to be. There is a very good new reproduction manual in English.
The stitches from this Featherweight are straight and tight with good tension and no skipping of the stitches. A sample of the stitching will accompany the sewing machine.
