I was all set to buy the Janome 6600 but when I went to get it they wre out of stock, the gentleman at the shop suggested the Elna 7300 and to be honest, I love it! It has a lot of the same features as the Janome 6600 (of course it is made by Janome so that makes sense) but there are a few extras and hte price was lower to boot, maybe check out both? Best thing to do is test drive all the ones you are interested in for after all this is not a low budghet item and it takes time to make sure.
Good luck and happy stitching!

I would really appreciate input from the experts (you).
