looking into a purchase it and can not find any info online.
Thanks

That runs in the range of their good machines.

Thanks Melinda, I was wondering if this is a machine that has the IDT ?

Hmmm... good question. I do know the Pfaff 935 and Pfaff 955 have dual
feeds. This is a parts list calls the 935 "Dualmatic" and the 955 a "Dual
feed":
http://www.brewersewing.com/parts/p935.pdf

And it has this: http://www.brewersewing.com/parts/pfaff.htm ... click on
"939" and you get this:
http://www.brewersewing.com/parts/p907.pdf
... but I do not see any IDT mechanism.

BUT... a check on http://groups.google.com/ for Pfaff 939 brings up a
message saying it DOES have dual feed.... and WAIT... I found a picture:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=41251&item=8102348936&rd=1&ssPageName=WD2V
... or
http://tinyurl.com/3ahk3 ... it has a picture that shows a picture with
"Dual Feed" written on the front.

So the answer is YES!

Thanks much!!!! I did not even notice it on that picture. I had looked at
that picture. I wanted a backup machine without spending a ton of money and
now I got it.

Cool... sometimes it just takes a different set of eyes. Have fun with it
(I love my Pfaff 955, which is about to get its annual maintenance, I want
that thing going until I'm buried).

I've got you beat!
I have it written to have mine buried with me.
I have had mine since it came out and have had the 1400 and now a 7570.
Won't get rid of this baby though. Has seen me through thick and thin.
I mean from weight watchers to Atkin's.
Great machine and works like mad. IT too is just about to go for its
yearly oiling and massage.

The one that is pictured on ebay is the one I purchased. I couldn't pass up
the price and just hoped that it had dual feed. Now that I know that it has
dual feed, I feel even better about my purchase.
