I have 2 Pfaffs, one is a model 60 treadle and the other is a model 1222E electric, both have the vertical bobbin systems, rather than the drop in bobbins that new machines have. The treadle is straight stitch only, the 1222E has the IDT/built in walking foot.
I love how it makes all my blocks come out the right size and quilt binding come out smooth and flat. The treadle is a great machine, nice and quiet. Both were made in Germany, I love my machines.
I've tested out new Pfaffs and I don't like them, they are noisy; doesn't seem to be the same quality of the old machines that were made in Germany.
