We bought a new Janome 6600P two weeks ago and I love it! It's a terrific sewing machine and doesn't hesitate to help me out if I'm having a ditzy day. The Horizon is popular but it wasn't what I wanted though I do have a year to change my mind and "trade up". Not gonna happen! :D DH said to get what I wanted and would be happy with and I made the right decision for me. We were both impressed with the dealer, too.
