Perfect replacement for the missing box from my Featherweight case. Good value and although plastic its appearance is just like the original—made tough too.

- 5***5 (4)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseSometimes, finding parts for old sewing machines can be hard, and the parts you find don't fit very well. This part was exactly what I was looking for and was a perfect fit. It was exactly what I needed to get an eighty year old Kenmore working again. The item was exactly as advertised, arrived quickly, and was packaged wonderfully. I had no contact with the seller, so I cannot comment on that. I would recommend this seller, one hundred percent!KENMORE 117.812,117.959,Sewing Machine Motor Friction Wheel #SM379A - 9/32" Hole (#264446234106)
