Can somebody compare this with the more popular DW2070? Which one is better?

no experience with the DW2070, but truly loved this 4060 Rowenta for its output.

The PE700II has computer connectivity which is probably the main reason for the price difference. You can purchase embroidery design CDs to use with the PE700II which gives you unlimited embroidery potential (be sure to buy designs in the PES format). The 700II is larger (17 x 12 x 8 compared to 13.63 x 10.7 x 10.8) but weighs 12 pounds less than the 700. You won't be sorry you spent the extra $$$.

Slight advantage to the Oshlun over the Freud 208, mainly due to having more teeth. The Oshlun isn't quite as clean as the DW/Delta 7670 though, which tends to run a bit higher in price. Any of those will have significantly better performance than the $30-$50 sets from Avanti, HF, Mibro, Vermont American, Promax, and others. However, none of these entry level sets do as well as the premium sets from Infinity, Freud, Forrest, Systimatic, Ridge Carbide, etc @ $200+, mainly due to the design and quality of manufacture...there really is a notable difference, but the better ~ $90+ sets can be "good nuff". It all boils down to need, usage, economics, and priorities.

I'm not an expert on sewing machines so I can't answer if there's any type of major difference such as certain sewing patterns or button holes that one has that the other doesn't. I used youtube as my research guide and the DZ2400 beat out the XR9500PRW no problem. I'm not saying the DZ2400 was the top one all together but it was the one I liked best of the top 5 of 2014

Thanks I appreciate your input. My main reason for asking was because the price difference between them is only 100 bucks which wouldnt be too much in the long run. I can fully appreciate that the D3100 is more beginner friendly. I just don't want to regret spending an extra $100 once I become less of a beginner. The swivel out LCD seems like it could be useful. Maybe not, what do I know. Anyway, thanks for the input. I do appreciate it.

From what my research has shown, the 7017 was the precursor to the 8017 model. They're technically the same. I have the 8017 and I love it. The 2 way pager is the absolute coolest. It goes off up to 1/2 mile away and is pretty loud. I wasn't able to find a difference. You can go to their website and click the 'Contact' tab. Ask the question. They're very responsive.

My read of the customer reviews supports the notion that the 255W is a terrific unit. Thanks for your reply.

I too have the DW618B3 not the DWP611. I agree with Ralph Welsh, Jr's response.

I only know the DW2090. It glides fine. My only complaint is that it does not have an automatic return for the cord.

I believe the digital display and the vent system of the 5270 is the difference. I have a 5270 and I love it!

They are both well regarded at this price level but only your ears will tell you how they compare. I have heard it said that if your cartridge suits the PP2 loading then its not bad at all. Technically the 651 is a much better design with better overload margin. Audition both and see what you think.

I had the DW6080 briefly. It leaked brown crap from the first go. No experience with other models, but was not impressed with what I thought was going to be a quality product.

I don't believe I ever made that statement. I have V2470 and I love it. I have a friend who recommended to me and he is right in saying "this is all you need". I have for a short time and I buy currently the 8" x 50' roll which I am very satisfied.

I did a lot of research and this is the one I decided to get. Try checking it out at www.dpreview.com. They have excellent reviews and you can do side-by-side comparisons.

One difference is that this has a 75oz reservoir vs the 60oz reservoir in the B70. I don't know if the internals are any different. I hope they have improved the durability of the machine. It is strange there are so few reviews of this new machine.

I ran them both in our conference room and I ended up keeping the 1070, I think you'll be disappointed in the resolution of the MW821 as I was. After seeing both in action what stuck out far more than everything else was the better resolution of the 1070.

It was my second choice. The Panasonic was $150 more(at the time) and I liked the sealed motor on the Prolux 7000. I had a older Panasonic industrial before before but it was not as good, smaller motor, more plastic parts and kind'a noise. But the Panasonic is still a good sweeper. Its your money I can't tell you which is best. I just liked the Prolux more for the price. Time will tell it I made the right choice. My girlfriend thought the red color was bad ass and as long as she is on the other end of it (and not me). What mom'a wants mom'a gets!
