Which machine would you get?
#11
I have one Brother and two high-end Janomes. I like each one and all are easy to use. Whatever you get, make sure it has a nice blanket stitch. I would never get any machine without one. I would get the Brother in this case just because it has a few more features. Good luck with your purchase, I know you will love either one.

My sister has a Brother machine and loves it. I have a Janome 6600P and love it. So I can't see that you would go wrong with either one. What about going with an embroidery machine if you already have 2 machines.

I have a small Janome machine...got it a couple of years ago and I paid $149.99 and I have pieced about 20 + quilts on it and it's been a jewel.. I quilted a wall hanging on it...that is all the quilting I have tried...but it did a great job..it doesn't need oiling according to the manual..and I have only changed the needle one time...so I think that it is a winner...if I ever upgrade to a more $$ machine...I think I would go with a Janome again...All my quilts have turned out great...I have a friend with a small fabric shop and a longarm business...and I do a lot of her customers quilts on the longarm and I get to do mine free...great trade off for me...good luck in finding your perfect machine...

I have 3 Janome machines and love them all. The oldest one I have is about 23 years old and the only problem I've had with it in that time, was operator error. I really wouldn't own any other brand. I have heard good things about Brother machines.
