I have a bernina 440 with a walking foot. It works great but it is a pain to put on. I just had to get used to it. I have to hold it at a certain angle to get it on.

mine came without directions so I guess it will sit in the drawer till I find out how to attach it lol oh I must have had a brain fart because I have 3 of them lol

It makes life so much easier when dealing with the quilt sandwich. I'd be going crazy if I didn't have one!

I've got two Pfaffs so don't need a walking foot. Tee hee.

Had mine for years and never used it until just a couple of months ago and now I wonder how I got along without it. I LOVE IT!

I have the Brother Hs2000, but this is where I got my walking foot and FMQ foot. They have a lot of Brothers parts. If you have an owners manual, it will give you the numbers to look for or you can find the manual online. I love mine! Both of them! DH got them for me for Christmas and I've been using them ever since.

Love mine. I use my walking foot for patchwork as well as quilting. The 1/4 seam is accurate and the piecing is better.

It's pretty important to have feed dogs (walking foot) on the top as well as the bottom when you are sewing through so many layers (quilt). That is, if you want it to feed evenly. It makes a difference.
