PFAFF. I have had Pfaffs for the last 25 years and I love them. Before I bought my first Pfaff I had both a Bernia and a Viking. I like the Bernina hated the Viking. The best feature of the Pfaff is the built in walking foot. I just bought a new Pfaff Creative 4.0. I can't recommend it enough. I love the 12 in throat.
