My Pfaff is 6230 whatever that means. It has different stitches that I really don't use. I did blanket stitch around some applique, but mostly piece and binding with it. Love the built in walking foot. I use to have it checked once a year no matter what, but stopped that when I bought an air compressor to blow the lint out, and you only oil the bobbin area. I've never wanted a computer type machine. because if the motherboard goes you really have a mess. I have a Janome, featherweight 1954, and a Brother 1500, but for some reason I keep going to the Pfaff.
