The Youtube videos are under Village Sewing. I purchased the Performance 5.0 last year after I was at local sewing store and viewing the video made my decision. They have videos of other machines; all are very detailed and walk you through the pros and cons of machines. I still have a Select 3 that I can use for classes and travel and am happy with it. I traded an Ambition 1.0 in when I bought the Performance 5.0 only because I didn't need to have 3 machines. Main reason I like Pfaff is the IDT system, I have had other machines with walking foot but they were too bulky and awkward when I make my jointed teddy bears. I would recommend you visit a sewing machine dealer if there is one close and sit down and take a few machines for a spin to see what you like and don't like. Also this is a perfect time to get a floor model or class machine at discount. Happy shopping.
