Hi, I wish I could answer your question, but I don't have any experience with either one of those machines. I used to have the Janome 9000 years ago but up graded to a Babylock. My MIL has always had a Pfaff but can't remember which one and would never use anything else. Good luck in your search. I'm sure someone on here can give you some helpful advice. Saying welcome, and waving from across the pond , in NE Ohio, USA.
