There are walking feet make specifically for brands of machines and generic walking feet. I don't recommend the generic unless you have an older machine that does not have one. It has been my experience in teaching machine quilting that the brand specific, while more expensive, is worth the extra $$, Sometimes the generic do not hold up or function properly.

I can do zig-zag & other stitches with my Viking Rose walking foot.

Likewise as donnajean mentioned, my walking foot has exchangeable feet and I can do zig-zag & many other stitches with my Viking Sapphire 875Q machine. This feature is just one of the many reasons I invested in this Husqvarna machine. Love it!!
