Schmetz or Singer are ok. I like Schmetz myself.
YOu might want to look in at the Featherweight
Fanatics digest to learn a lot about FW's.

(like Ebay) that I had to use special needles for this machine. Is
this true? I haven't
seen any special ones in the fabric shops/online notions stores, so
I'm not sure. If you have a featherweight, what kind of needle would
you normally use?
