I have a Janome 6600, a Brother 1500 and a Featherweight.....use Superior topstitch titanium in all three with no problem. Have also used the Schmetz in all with no problem.....My Janome came with some Organ replacement needles, but I haven't even used them.....

Although it's been a few years now when I purchased my Janome 4000, but my dealer recommended and only stocked Schmetz brand sewing needles. I do tend to wait until JoAnn's has a 50% off sale on their notions, which includes sewing machine needles, which makes them more reasonable.

Superior Titanium Topstitch needles are what I use mostly, although I've used about everything. My Janome doesn't seem to be fussy about needles, the way it is with bobbins. I use Superior Threads as well, and through experience I believe they give off the least amount of lint.

PatriceJ, I was thinking the same thing. I have used Schmetz for a while, but with my 8200 the needle threader doesn't seem to work so I now use Organ. The threader almost always works on the first try. Luckily my Janome dealer always has a good deal on them.
