Pfaff is the epitome of precision German engineering and design. Pfaff engineered the first semi-industrial sewing machine for home use. Pfaff presented solid powerful straight and zigzag machines which allowed for special attachments depending on the model to provide a variety of additional decorative stitches. Pfaff machines can sew anything put underneath it taking up to size #18 needle and #69 thread up to a #92 thread with tensions reset. The motors use a very high copper content winding to provide the power of a much larger motor. The stitches are adjustable in both length and width providing control over spacing and strength of stitch along with double needle capacity.
The Pfaff 130 has a dual needle capability and ingenious decorative needle stitch using the special attachment (50010) allows for additional 53 different decorative stitches making this a truly versatile workhorse of a machine.
The Pfaff 230 was originally designed as the replacement for the 130. The differences include the use of more alloys to reduce weight in the machine; a redesigned cam system to an internal design above the needle bar drive; light moved over the throat with a swing down mechanism to allow for bulb changes; rotary dial stitch length with a preset length and an added needle threader.
The Pfaff 260 has an upgraded motor from the 230 and the largest motor made for all these machines. In addition the knobs were made larger and easier to grasp.
The Pfaff 332 was originally designed as an upgrade for the 230. The 332 features a free arm with a collapsible table along with a redesigned tension system, internal motor with a cleated belt along with needle threader changes and added capacity for load handling. This 332 has a powerful 1.3 amp motor which was about 2 times the power of the average Singer of that era. With the embroidery upgrade on the 332 you can create an additional 53 decorative stitches.
The Pfaff 360 has additional features of automatic needle threader, double and triple needle capability along with 80 additional decorative stitches and variations.
