I have an older Pfaff 1473 (actually have two identical machines) and use the older style 1/4” foot that has straight sides back to front. The current one has the 1/4” on part of the side. I don’t like the flange, probably because I’ve used the older foot for a very long time and it’s hard for me to really see well with the flange. I also use one of those purple cling strips that is placed correctly and have no problems at all. My Bernjnas have a wonderfulm1/4” foot.
