What do you use to keep your foot pedal from moving around?

Amen to this! I have an old singer from my grandmother that has the knee power bar. Given the choice of having that or a needle drop knee bar I would take the Power one any day!! Any sewing machine company reading this?????

If you have carpet, put a strip of Velcro on the bottom, the side with the hooks.

I have the problem of slippage too but at least as aggravating to me is the fact that the Pfaff cord is too short. I guess I have longer legs than most? My sewing counter is only a couple inches taller than most but I am still not comfortable using the pedal both because it slips around and is never as far back under the table as I think it is. LOL Must try using some of the shelf liner. I have vinyl tile on floor at present.

I use one of those rubber type shelf liners, and it works pretty well, plus I have my second sewing machine under my sewing table, so it can't go far if it decides to wander; otherwise the foot pedal behaves pretty well.

I just use masking tape to tape it to the floor. It works just fine.
