Miz Johnny, you are not playing the devils advocate! I did say I actually like this new Pfaff, and my new Janome's, but it kind of disconcerting for me when all the Pfaff's I have were made in Germany, made very well, and now I own a Pfaff that says made in Taiwan and looks just like all the other plastic wonders out there! I know, I am prejudice, but I use to think Pfaff was a cut above most of the other brands - but not any more!
Anyway, this whole thing about the Pfaff 4228 not being listed anywhere as a Pfaff model is making more and more sense given the link Candace sent of the merge of Singer, Pfaff, and Viking! This new Pfaff I found looks brand new, doesn't appear to ever have been used, and the more I find out the more I believe it happened 'after' the merge!
