I didn't think I needed a walking foot once I bought my Bernina 770 until I did straight-line quilting one day and got pintucks! So I googled it and apparently I still do. Now I can straight-line quilt with no issues. I had successfully sewn on binding with the dual feed when I had always used my walking foot on my previous machine, but now I use the walking foot for that also. This video is a bit long but very informative about the differences between the two and how they work. Long story short the walking foot is 5x more effective at managing the fabric and the dual feed is 5x more convenient. Don't get me wrong, I love my dual feed for everyday sewing and piecing!
