    I am very interested in the Jenome Horizon. For anyone that has one - Does it have an automatic pressure foot.

    I have one, and there is a dial where you can adjust the pressure of the foot, if that's what you mean?

    Not sure what an "automatic pressure foot" is so I cant really answer that particular question, but I do have the Horizon and love love love it! It's my main go to machine now, with my 6500 as backup. Love them both actually.

    I have one and it has a built-in even feed system which is the same as a walking foot. But, it can be converted to a regular foot. I love mine. I suggest you find a dealer and look it over. Take your list of questions with you.

    I don't know what you mean by auto pressure foot, but I would guess it might be equal to our knee lift on the Horizon. Love the machine, how I did without all the features for so long I'll never know.

    I had one and was very disappointed in it. Even with the redesigned foot, it would not sew over bulky seams, like the OBW center. I exchanged it for the Babylock Symphony, which has been wonderful.

    Yes it does have a dial on the top that you can adjust the foot pressure. In the manual, it will tell you the suggested setting for certain stitches.
    I love my Horizon and highly recommend it.
