I had a New Home (now Janome) for 40 years and loved it. I gave it to a friend and purchased a HT2008, which is a low level machine but works very well. The current version is DC2012. A friend has the Magnolia and really likes it. I really don't think you can go wrong with even a cheaper Janome. As someone else said, Brothers are also good. Just stay away from cheap Singers.

I have a Janome Memory Craft 4800 QC and I love it.
You should check out the Janome's offered on Amazon.com as they have several under $300. The Janome 2212 is only $179 and there's no shipping cost. It has 12 built in stitches and is kind of cute!

I think that any Janome you choose will turn out to be a workhorse. The bells and whistles tend to come along with other things like quieter sewing, but I have three Janomes varying in price and they are all great. Choose the model that has the best price with the most features and you won't go wrong.
HO, HO, HO. Your friend is lucky, Santa!

I only have Janomes too. Recently I bought the 7700 model LOVE IT I had used a Decor Excel model for nearly ten years and it only ever had services done to it (its now my back up machine) and I just bought my daughter a JR1012 model to learn on. I haven't had any problems with any of them. Would recommend janome to anyone.
