    Same here. You just put the correct foot on, bring down the accufeed foot, connect the two and your off and sewing.

    I have both an electronic and mechanical Pfaff and LOVE THEM! I have also realized I cannot sew on any other machine :)
    They (Pfaff) have reasonable priced machines that have dual feed, you don't need the top of the line.

    I have two Pfaffs and love, love, love the dual feed. I love that I can use other feet with it.

    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

    I used to have a Pfaff and I loved it. I burned out the motor on it so I decided it was time for a new machine. I went with the Janome 6600 for the accufeed and I love it. I still have my Pfaff on a shelf. I can't part with my old friend!

    I just bought a Janome 7700, don't have it set up yet, but think I am really going to like it, especially for quilting.

    Thanks to all of you who replied, and now I just have to go check them out to see which one fits my budget. Being retired changes the budget from when I was working. I have the brothers 8500, 2001, 2003D and a kenmore which all have a walking foot but I hate changing it. My hands are not steady anymore and attatching a screw just takes me a long time. Thanks again, Judy
