I had also been trying for a long time and it was a little better when I got my Pfaff 2034 but I still wasn't happy with my results. This spring I bought a Pfaff Expression 2.0 (from Ebay) and wow what a difference, it is so much easier. I have no idea why but I'll take it. I haven't even had to adjust my tension, it seems to be fine and no longer have my bobbin thread showing up on the top or vice versa. My stitches still aren't perfect but so much better.
