Pfaff Quilt Expression 4.0 Quilting Machine Review

Mrs.

I have used this machine for more than 3 years and it is fantastic! I bought it for the automatic trimmers upgrading from a 20+ year old computerized Pfaff that I gave to my daughter. I am a professional seamstress and own roughly 9 machines, both mechanical and computerized, as well as a commercial embroidery machine. I have not had one problem with this machine. I find it to… read more be very easy to use and the instruction manual perfectly clear. It stitches and trims beautifully and would highly recommend it.

Great Machine

I purchased my Pfaff three years ago and love it! I have three sewing machines and find myself using this one the most. It is easy to use and does a great job with all my projects; garments, crafts, quilting. I would concur that the manual is very basic and a manual in greater detail would be great.

Phaff 4.0

I wanted a really good quilting machine so after some research I purchased my phaff.For the amount I paid, I thought it had to be great. Not so much.): My old machine was quite ancient, so this electronic one was quite a step up for me, and I have to add that with more practice and knowledge I might get to like it better. To start with, it arrived without a very good manual, just… read more the basics.(I have to assume that they thought only machine savy people would ever buy this sewing machine.) Although I have sewn for most of my life it was on a very old singer that lasted for many many years.I happened to buy my grandson a $300 singer so he could sew with me at the same time I purchased my machine and I found myself liking his better. It runs much quieter, the stitches are smoother, it's lighter, and has more decorative stitches than mine (aaarrrgh!)I have definitely learned my lesson, more expensive is not always better.I am trying to find a better instruction manual so that maybe that will help. If that changes my opinion and I find the fault was just my ignorance I will gladly submit a better review.As it stands it gets three stars only because of the stitch sequencing, thread cutting and not having to worry about setting my own tension levels for different stitches(yeah) :)
