i have the snap on foot that attaches to my Janome..it does ok until you get to the corners, then i have trouble with it..
i would not use it again.
i sew the front and back binding at the same time with a fancy stitch/walking foot.

I have one and I love it. You have to use it along with your walking foot. It takes a bit of practice to get everything together alright; kind of reminds me of when I first learned to drive cause you have to watch in front of your and watch to your right and left to make sure everything is coming together just right. I always hated binding and using bias strips 'cause I could never get it together right on the machine and ended up doing one edge totally by hand. Last Christmas I bought a generic one for my machine and I LOVE IT!!!!

Hand stitching is best if going in a show or the quilt is extra special.

I have the Martelli system & it is great for baby quilts or anything that is going to get a lot of washing. It certainly saves a lot of time & it comes with the mitering tools. Would not use it on an heirloom quilt.

the second one is for double needles and looks very professional.

You have to be really careful about what you type in when you're searching on the Web. I typed in "Cool Whip" once looking for low sugar things for my diabetic husband. Wow! I had no idea there were so many different meanings to the phrase. Need I say more?
