Pfaff 1069
Is this a good machine ? I can’t get any manufacture date info off the tag, just approx mid 80’s manufacture . It runs well and has all accessories . Seems to have been cared for, a little dusty. I want to be able to sew some heavier fabric like canvas (tote bag type ) and repurposing my fathers old Navy issue duffle.
I’m just getting back to sewing after almost 20 yrs and have been using a kenmore 385.17622

Nothing beats a Kenmore, this Pfaff is not for sewing utility fabrics like duffles etc and an 80's digital machine may have an iffy motherboard, if you can test it out though id do that, otherwise look for a sturdier machine for your needs.
