    [quote=Sarah CA]Canmitch1971, I have the Janome 6600 and I just posted on the Janome yahoo group that I can't reach my knee lift at all, unless I totally shift my body. How did your husband improvise it? Thanks, Sarah in CA

    Hi Sarah My husband just bent it until I could reach it.

    I think it's stupid to not let the price be told or known. When I was looking for my new machine several years ago I ran into the same thing. I was calling the machine dealers asking the price of what I wanted with no trade in before I drove miles out of my way to the shop. Only one gave me a price over the phone so that is the one I bought from and it was the furtherest one from me! She said she never heard of not being able to quote her prices, said it was frowned upon because the customer may be convinced to buy up once in the shop. I bought two machines from her that day. One for me and one for my DD. And stopped at three shops I passed on the way that wouldn't give me the price and showed them I bought two machines NOT from them and why. I have a mean streak like that.

    [quote=Sarah CA]Marlet, Is it too bold of me to ask what your dealer gave you for trading in your 6600 for the Horizon? I have a 6600 that I just purchase in October 2009,but am thinking of the Horizon (one reason being the adjustable knee lift, among other new features). If you prefer not to say, that's okay. Sarah in CA

    MSRP is $2999. My dealer has given me a good deal in trading in my 6600 for the Horizon. I'm just sitting and twiddling my thumbs waiting for it to come in. Can't wait to get my hands on my new "baby". Heard nothing but rave reviews from all new owners.
    I sent you a PM.
