I bought a Pfaff Expression 3.0 in March of last year. I went basically from a horse and buggy to a Porsche. I love the top and bottom feed, deeper throat and all the different stitches. At the shop that I bought it I can up grade within in a year and they will give me the price that I paid for my machine towards the up grade. I haven't decided if that is what I want to do yet.
