My only machine is a Pfaff 2030 I bought in 2001. So far I have been able to do everything I want with it, so no need to trade up. Have been able to do free motion quilting, just not too fancy of stuff. I'm not into embroidery, but of course, I may change my mind about that, then I would consider another machine. I traded-in my old brother (from 1956) on my Pfaff. Wish I had kept it, but didn't know any better at that time. Didn't see the need for 2 machines. Now I do.
