The Janome Horizon is a superb machine, I love it. It has an 11" throat, thread cutter, built in walking foot, so many nice features that I can't list them. I had a Bernina QE with the stitch regulator and sold it because it did not sew fast enough for me, had a short work space and I found I could do free motion better without the BSR. I would absolutely get the Horizon. Check out the Janome website.
