I had never used one before and I saw a Fons and Porter show and they sang it's praises. I bought one about 3 months ago and I will not piece without one ever again! I was amazed at how nicely my fabrics and seams line up now!!

I hate my walking foot. It broke apart and caused a lot of damage to my machine. I will never use it again.

My Bernina walking foot has 1/4" markings. I don't know if other brands' walking feet do. For precise piecing or strips 6" or longer, I either use a machine with built-in dual feed (a Pfaff, my Baby Lock Quest Plus, or my 820) or I use a Bernina with walking foot. It pops on and off, no screws, works beautifully.

I like my walking feet on the machines I have. I don't free motion so the walking comes in handy. As for the 1/4 foot, love it! I have found my seams are straighter and more accurate with it.
