I purchased the Janome dc2010 around the beginning of May and LOVE it. I had emailed a local dealer about a Janome Magnolia model and she convinced me to try the dc2010. It was her last in stock at $399 since the new dc2011 models were coming out - exactly the same machine, just a different color and a higher price tag. If you're interested in the 2011, I would look around to see if anyone still has a dc2010...you might even be able to get a good deal...mine came with $50 worth of free thread and free classes for life (on how to use the machine). Good luck!
