You're right! That is what I am thinking also! Just never had any other serger than the Brother. I bought it at an auction and it was fairly new! I have a Pfaff 1475CD and a Pfaff Creative 2140/2170 upgraded Embroidery machine. I really like the Pfaffs! But after watching alot of Sue Hausman's programs, I'm getting hooked on Husqvarna Viking!
