I agree with juliea9967. Stick with Pfaff. The Pfaff 4.5 is a great machine. I had a 7550 and upgraded to a 2144. Then I went to a Creative Sensation Pro. I am still learning what that machine can do. You would regret not having IDT if you went with anything else.

I would check out the brother dreamcreator while it doesn't have IDT the dual feed is amazing on these machines. There have been quite a few converts due to the v-series machines so I would at least check them out while the sales are going on

I have other smaller Brothers machines and I love how they stitch. I need something with a larger hoop size now for other kinds of embroidery I am wanting to do. I will be following this post closely. I want to see what the favorite is and the most cost effective model is.
