Anyone ever use a binding foot on their quilts? Would you recommend it or not?

i have one for my Janome 7700 and i like it.

I have one for my Juki and one for my Brothers machine and have not used either of them as of this time.

I have used them on potholders but not quilts. I wouldn't use it for quilting

Binding foot or binding attachment? If the latter, here's a recent discussion

I have tried the latter and didn't like it for quilt binding. I'm not sure a binding foot would open large enough to feed a quilt sandwich. In either case, both fold the binding twice towards the center, so the thickness of the binding where it wraps around the quilt edge is only 1 layer of fabric (vs. traditional quilt binding which is double fabric thickness). Both create a binding that's folded like seam binding rather than quilt binding.
