I have a Pfaff 7570 with embroidery unit that is a superior machine. I have had a Pfaff 2560 I couldn't get rid of fast enough. Engineered in Germany but manufactured in Czechoslovakia, if I misspelled, so sorry. Mostly plastic parts and couldn't keep it running. I sold it on Ebay. Took a loss but was glad it was gone. I used that money to help pay for a Janome Horizon. The older Pfaffs are great, the new ones are made by the same company that makes the Singer, Kenmore, etc. Just isn't the same quality.
My recommendation is to go with the Janome, but I would suggest you try to get one from a dealer so you have the waranty. I'm very happy with my Horizon. Lots of non-metal parts, but I haven't had the multiple failures I experienced with the Pfaff 2560.
