I have the 6600 and absolutely love it. I am considering upgrading to a 12000. If I do so, will sell my 6600 which I kinda don't want to do...I've learned SO much on it. I thought about the 7700 but want more embroidery so the 12000 fits my needs better.

It's going to give the Bernina 830 a run for it's money. Is the price range similar? I had an invite to the preview at my LQS but I didn't go. If my husband had not purchased an embroidery machine for me, and if I hadn't purchased the 6600 less than a year ago ... I'd consider it. But even then, not sure if I could justify the $$. I'm a practical spender. Most of the time :)

That is the MSRP and most dealers have the option of working with it some. It was about $3000 less at the showing I attended. As much as I love Janome, I didn't see anything to make me trade my Babylock Ellisimo for it. Also it weighs 48 lbs! so the dealer was throwing in a Janome Gem 760 as a travel machine which I thought was awesome! I offered to take the Gem and let him keep the 12000 but he wouldn't go for it! LOL!
