I got a fantastic employee discount on mine, as I worked at House of Fabrics corp office in Sherman Oaks, CA at that time. I got their cost plus 10 percent. It's a great machine. Made of steel! Sadly,I left my 6235 in our rumpus room, where the elements got to it (door was always open)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03769268739834379304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1258128212942403591.post-37380243625012489402015-04-23T10:49:07.353-05:002015-04-23T10:49:07.353-05:00Thank you for this inspiring post - This 6235 is ...Thank you for this inspiring post - This 6235 is my FAVORITE machine! I bought it in 1985 when I was pregnant with my first baby, drawn to the "easy to thread" feature (I'm a Singer SNOB). It was an expensive purchase for me back then... but it served me well. After 25 years of dance and theater costumes, it started acting strange.

I have one of these in mint condition that I am giving to a friend today. You are right that it was sold mid-80's. That's when I was sewing for my ever-growing belly and little ones. I am now sewing on Viking machines and this little lady needed a good home. She will be loved!Kathy E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15326822392780979118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1258128212942403591.post-75411612007852871972011-07-08T20:23:36.613-05:002011-07-08T20:23:36.613-05:00It's such a nice looking machine, too.

I would have to dig it out and look. In one of my many moves, the plastic "arm" that comes off disappeared so I haven't used the machine in YEARS! I did like the way it sewed and used it from the early 80s until about 2002. I think that is when I bought my first used machine.
