Pfaff 1222 and Bernina 1030

I agree with the nomination of the Pfaff 1222, only with the addition of a knee lift. And the Bernina 1030- it has features the current model 1008 doesn’t have.

I love my Koala chair. It adjusts from very low to draft height, which is great, since I'm short. It allows me to be comfortable at cabinets that would be too tall for me otherwise.
