Hi Judy,
I've had a Pfaff for probably over 14 years (a # 1475) and I love that machine because of the built in even feed. It's my favorite. I have several machines that don't have the built in even feed but do have the attachements you can buy to get an even feed. The problem with them I've found is that they are so noisy. Even for the age of my Pfaff and I have a top of the line Bernina, I always seem to go to my Pfaff for my everyday sewing. I can't tell you anything about any other machines that might have even feed built into them like the Pfaff because I've never tried or seen them. So for me it's all about my Pfaff. Good luck in your search. Linda from Clinton
