Best Things I Bought online and Love, Love, Love
 

I bought a Janome 200E Embroidery Machine and I love this machine, it is a workhorse. I know whenever I embroider I will get a beautiful stich out every time and believe me I have used this several hundred times. It was $499. I bought it new from EBay and would buy it again and again. I have had it 5 years and I have tried other embroidery machines and I go back to the 200 E. I also bought Embird and it does everything I need it to do and love it. After I purchased it, Embird had an upgrade and it was free. It is very reasonably priced. I could go on and on about how much I love these 2 things, but I will stop myself.

I bought a Janome 2660 for $80 at an estate sale...It is not as complex as the one you bought..it is just a straight machine but it is a workhorse. I adore it...it is so much nicer than my Viking that I paid dearly for when I purchased it new!

Ditto!! Replace Janome 200E with 300E, and I second everything you have to say..I did buy an extra heavy thread holder, stand it back about 6 inches or so, and do not get breakage as much as I did at the beginning...It was a learning experience to get it all right..I use Metro Emb. Thread..
Embird is the greatest...once I learned how to get around it... ignore some windows and carry on...
I enjoy Emblibrary.com above all. Although I recently stitched out monkeys from Julia's Needle Design..They turned out so perfect and cute. I would go with this site any time, as well. She is cheaper, if you can use her designs.....I love the Janome brand for any machine....
Glad you enjoy your machine....

I have a Janome 350e embroidery machine--and I love it! Wonderful machine...and the designs on EmbLibrary work fabulously.

I have four janome machines and love them all.
