Singer sewing machines are the same as Pfaff machines just as a Hummer vehicle is the same as a GMC vehicle. Pfaff owns Singer.
Have the instruction book but does not mention so I have the machine and I would say same size as the singer but are metal OK ( bobbin ) Most Kenmore sewing machines (including this one) take class 15 bobbins which you can find at Joann's, Walmart, and most places that deal in sewing machines. They come in either plastic or metal.
Not all sewing machines are compound machines. The definition of a compound machine is one the contains more than one machine within the same case. A machine that is not only a sewing machine but also an embroidery machine would be considered a compound sewing machine. A really good compound sewing machine is the Husqvarna Diamond sewing machine.
Sewing machines come in all shapes sizes and colours. Most machines look alike and have the same features.
I have one which was purchased in July 1980 - it just has 'Singer' on it, but I've just seen the same one sold in New Zealand on an eBay type site and it has 'Merritt' on it.
$500 to $600
No it will not run more slowly. The power runs through it just as fast as you would normally. Same with all machines and all brands. I also have a singer sewing machine and i use a extension cord and it works normally.

In the same way they are today
The singer 6212c takes a class 66 bobbin. I have one of these machines myself, it's from the '80's and takes the same bobbin as my 1913 66 red-eye treadle. Enjoy, these are some of the easies to find bobbins.

Same thing used today. Mostly small electric motors.

The local sewing machine repair shop will be able to order the part for you, if they don't already have it on hand. If you don't have a local shop, contact Singer here: http://www.singerco.com/support/

Sewing machines are generally the same,it is best to start with an older machine to lean the basics.
A serger (overlock) sewing machine uses up to four threads and has a special trimming blade. It is designed for one main job: it sews, trims and overcasts the seam at the same time. Its function is specialized, but it can really speed up sewing and gives the finished item a professional look. A serger is a great machine for sewing stretch fabrics. A home sewing machine is designed to do a wider variety of tasks. It will generally have more stitches, plus presser feet and attachments to sew zippers, buttonholes, do machine quilting, etc. There is usually an overlock stitch on a home sewing machine, but you can't sew the seam, overlock and trim all in one pass. Lots of sewers have one (or more!) of each.
A sewing machine that's what. I had a Singer Starlet that was the same basic machine as the Singer Genie. A light portable machine produced in the very early 1970's. If you do a search on Singer Genie either on Google or eBay, you should find a photo of it. The starlet was made in France and I have no idea why it had a different name.
