I'm a Pfaff girl here. I love the IDT or duel feed for sewing and quilting. I bought my first Pfaff when I was pregnant with my youngest son. He is now 26 years old. I am sold on the brand. I have had no problems with any of them, just regular maintenance about once a year.
Visit different dealers and play with the display models. Ask questions. A good dealer is an asset for any machien purchase.
