Love my Janome Horizon 7700!! The 11" bed is wonderful for FMQ. I love the needle threader, thread cutter, hundreds of decorative stitches, and, well, there are many other features that I love. I've only had her for a year, but I'm thinking she and I will have a long-term relationship.
I decided to go with the horizon 7700!!! It's being shipped Monday

Congrats ! I purchased a 7700 this summer. Love every minute sewing on it. All of my piecing is much improved using it. I also have the Memory Craft 11000 SE. It's old..never a problem with it; love the quality of embroidery on it.. however, it appears that my 7700 is better for piecing. It's extra nice (saves time, too) having one machine set up for embroidery/QITH projects and one for regular sewing.

Janome 6500 now for 9 yrs. Great machine with a 9 in. throat opening, knee lifter and auto push button thread cutter. The plain straight stitch version is the Janome 1600. Besure to get the one with the auto thread cutter button and the knee lifter.

Love my janome but she stays at home. If you intend to take the machine to classes I would sew on them to get a feel and pick them up to feel the weight for carrying. I think all the memory craft are heavy.
