I have a Pfaff Performance 2056 that I use all the time. I also have the Pfaff Grand Quilter, that only sews straight stitch and I use it for machine quilting.
When I was looking at embroidery machines, I looked at Pfaff and various other models, most of them were combination machines, sewing/embroidery. I already had a sewing machine, so I decided on the Janome 200E machine, it's embroidery only, it has a 5.5X5.5 hoop and it does what I need it to do and it fit the budget which now a days is a big consideration.

I have the 7570 - I purchased the machine many years ago mainly for sewing & it sews great - no problems. I took lessons for the embrodery part - did a lot of embrodery. I think the newer models have a much bigger area to embrodery and you can change and "edit" your pattern. Also haven't checked in a long time to see if the Creative Cards are still available for the 7570.
I also have the Pfaff Grand Quilter - use it for quilting my quilts - only had it for a few months - but am very pleaseed with it.
