I just found out there is another new machine. Has anyone here "test driven" it, and how was it. Anyone know what price range it is in?
Thanks |
If you are talking about the new sewing/embroidery machine...it is fantastic and has a suggested retail of $12,000; but there are deals out there.
|
Would have to be one heck of a deal :lol:
|
It's the Horizon 12000-that's the model number and MSRP. Looks cool, and I've heard it goes for $9999. But even for that, I'd skip the uncertainty and potential bugs of a new model and get a Bernina 830LE.
|
WOW - that was just about the price tag of our first house - and IT had a bathroom! Looks like I am still looking at a 6600. Bernina 830LE? Do you have that one Maia?
|
The Janome 7700 is a great machine. Great lighting, large throat space, lots of stitches, Accufeed feet (built in walking feet) and is easy to use. It also comes with an extended table. It's a lot like the Janome 6600, but with some additional features
The MSRP is about $3,000. If you want to see what the 7700 owners are saying about it, there is a Yahoo group for the Janome 7700. |
$3000? that is a long way off from 10 grand, isn't it?
|
my Jamone was about 2,300 check around...you can get good deals on the 7700.

There are two Horizon's -- and a huge price difference between them. The Horizon 12000 is considered (by Janome) an embroidery machine, but it has a lot of the features of the Horizon 7700, which is a lot cheaper.
Here are the links to the sites: http://content.janome.com/index.cfm/...ry_Craft_12000 (This one is around $10,000) http://content.janome.com/index.cfm/...ilting/Horizon (This one is available for anywhere from $2200 - $3000, depending on the dealer and region of the country. I know that some of the dealers have thrown in a table, the thread rack or a rolling cart.) |
