I own three... the first one I bought in 1998 and it remains a reliable work horse to this day (Creative 1475).
Second, Quilt Expression 4.2 (wanted an upgrade and I love it)
Third, Passport 3.0 (small, lightweight & used for classes/workshops).
I just can't seem to part with any of them. I'm a loyal Pfaff owner. You can't go wrong. Good luck with your purchase.

I have a Pfaff 7570 which I love. Bought it about 1995 and have never had a problem with it. Then bought a Bernina Artista 180, and a Baby Lock Elegante, which I've had problems with. But a few months ago bought another Pfaff Performance 5.0, which I love. I think Pfaff machines are the best!

Six months ago I purchased a Pfaff 4.2 Quilt Expression. I really like it. I have a very old Pfaff (1970's) and always loved the smoothness and quietness. The new one makes more noise (only disappointment). I also have a Babylock Esante and Melody. Also like both of these but would definitely choose Pfaff over Babylock.

We currently have 3 Pfaffs: a new 2038 was our first purchase, a used 1475CD came next, then we bought a Grandquilter 1200 with a frame, which we have since sold, and lastly, we bought a new Creative 3.0. All have been excellent machines and we would purchase them again in the same circumstance and budget. You can't beat the IDT for accuracy and the machines just work. We are strictly quilters. No garments, embroidery, etc., though my wife does want to start using the embroidery module on her Creative.
Edited to add: when my wife wanted to buy the Creative, I had my doubts about it because all the other machines were purchased when Pfaff was German owned and European manufactured. She had her heart set on this machine, though, so we did buy it, even though it was made in China. It has not seen heavy use, but has performed as well as our other machines since we took it out of the box.
