But, as suggested, go and try them out and see what might suit you and your budget the best.
Good luck with it :)
I agree I love my Horizon.
I've always had mechanical machines such as Bernina, Pfaff etc. and just bought a Janome Horizon and I'm in love. I didn't think the computerized features would make a difference but they do and I absolutely love, love, love it.
