I have the Pfaff Creative Sensation and absolutely love it. I have had Pfaff's for about 10 years now and at this point in life will probably never sew on anything else. My daughter visited once and sewed on my Creative Sensation. She decided that a Pfaff was in her future, but no way was she going to spend the money to get a Creative Sensation. She settled on a Pfaff Creative 4.0 for about half the price I paid for my Sensation. It doesn't have a lot of the features that my CS has, but it has all of the important Pfaff features that makes it a great Pfaff sewing and embroidery machine. I bought the CS because I worked for a quilting shop/Pfaff dealer and got a great deal. I no longer work there and if something ever happens to my CS I will definitely buy the Creative 4.0. It is an awesome machine and my daughter absolutely loves it.
