I have 4 Janome machines and love them all. If you take care of them they last forever

So, those of you who bought the J7700, what are you using for a sewing table/cabinet?

Oh,I am sure thinking about trading my Janome 9500 in for the Horizon! Thinking, thinking, thinking! I love my 9500 though, what a work horse. I am waiting on a big medical bill to come in to be paid so I can't jump on it right now. I am hoping their will be a great sale in January! Would love to try one out! I would miss my 9500 though :(

As for sewing on it, been too busy with grandchildren around and other things this summer. It is one super awesome machine!

Pfaff has a model out right now that has all the features of the Horizon, plus at least one perk. all of the feet snap on - even the special feet for even feed. i forgot to ask if it comes with an extension table.

the price i got over the phone from my nearest dealer was the same as for the Horizon. i haven't gone to "visit" either machine in person. i'm scared to death one would follow me home. my credit card would melt on the spot! :lol:

I got mine, and I love it! I sold my 6600P to get this so I would have free arm.

The Elna 7300 has a 9 inch throat size and it's about $1500. I was told that Janome bought out Elna. Elna was originally a Swiss machine.
