I have an older Pfaff (2038). I love it..except the foot lift lever is on the right side (inside the harp area) instead of behind. I've had it in for a fix once as the lever works only some of the time now. And its about to go in again for the same problem. Its very frustrating. The harp area isn't as large as the newer models and my work gets caught on it. But she sews wonderfully! I have considered trading it in on a newer model to get a larger harp and no lever in the way!
