would LOVE to have this

Excellent price! Snap it up, it's a great deal. My LQS has it for $1,700. I have the 6260 and the Marie Osmond Quilter's Companion (not the fancy one), but I don't think they are as good as the 6600.

I've had mine almost 3 years and love it, have had no problems whatsoever. It's a great machine for free motion, I've done queen size easily.
The 7700 soon to be available has slightly larger throat space at 11" and also is a free arm which the 6600 isn't, but I won't be changing as I am quite content with the 6600.
I can't comment on price as mine was bought in France - but if you do buy it, get the additional Accufeed feet - you wont regret it.

It's hard for me to comment on the price since I think in Canadian dollars, but you will never regret owning that machine. The table is an awesome addition because it's so stable and the machine fits perfectly. If you figure out what the little door by the needle is for, let me know (maybe you can ask when you purchase this set).
I say - GO for it :)

The table is great like you said, and also the machine is so quiet in it.

I bought my Janome 6600 about 6 weeks ago. I paid almost $1400 and got the last one in stock. It came with the table, but I put mine in a cabinet. I sold my extension table to a friend for $45.00. Sold my Pfaff for $800 so in all my machine cost less than $600.00. I even talked him in to giving me extra bobbins and the acufeed open toe foot.
I really like this machine. Someone suggested you wait untill the next one coming in the spring. I didn't need the extra throat space bc I have the HQ16. All in all everything depends on your time frame, budget and DESIRE. I called all the dealers in my area and this was the best price, plus I had bought from him before.

I thought it was cute. That one is probably the only way I could afford one.
