Bernina presser feet are, "old style" and "new style." New style is for anything about 30 years old and newer. Old style is for anything older.
There are also 9mm presser feet, which are wider. And Dual feed feet that are open in the back for the dual feed to engage. But, any of these 9mm or dual feed feed will fit on any "new style" Bernina.
If you got a 7 Series machine when they first came out, they hadn't had the bugs worked out of them, yet. However, if you get your dealer to put all of the firmware updates on it, they do alright. The newer "Plus" machines are pretty awesome!
I'm hoping to get the Bernina 590.... someday.
