I took a class last night for my sewing machine and one of the gals had the new Horizon. She minced no words about her frustration. She apparently traded up a 6500 so she had a good comparison. The one thing she said was driving her crazy was the selection wheel to pick the stitch. She said it takes her forever to find the stitch now where as before, she could just key in the number.
Just thought I'd share in case anyone is looking to buy that. It is one of those "try and see if it works for you" things.
