Does anyone have one of these and would you recommend it or not, and why?
Thanks-
I own a Husqvarna Viking Designer SE and love it, BUT I have used two of the machines you are considering. I have used the Pfaff Creative and the Babylock Ellisimo.
Of these two, I would choose the Babylock Ellisimo, hands down. I sews and embroiders like a dream and is very user friendly...it hums.
The Pfaff isn't what it used to be in my opinion. It is noisy, vibrates, and is not at all user friendly when it comes to embroidery. I am not trying to offend Pfaff owners. I just think the older Pfaffs are better than the current model.
Check them out carefully and get the perfect machine for you. ;)
