I believe the loop is 4x4 with option of one a little bit larger.
I want to buy a machine that I won't need to change for years to come. I do have a Pfaff for quilting with the IDF which I won't change for nothing in the world (well, unless there was a machine with the IDF and stitch regulator.
Looking forward for your input adn thanks in advance

OMG....2K is WAY too much money for the Sofia. You should be able to get the Ellure Plus for that amount of money. Alot more machine with 5 x 7 Embroidery area. The Sofia sells in my neck of the woods for $600-800.
