Thanks for the update, sad to hear it - and I have the same concerns with change of manuf. to China ... also surprising how many don't know that Janome has manuf for Sears Kenmore all these years ...
Afraid it will be like the Pfaff situation, once German-made and such high quality. Then manuf. shifted to Sweden after they were bought by VSP, then many were made in Czechoslovakia & elsewhere ? and then manuf shifted to China 3-4 years ago. The great Pfaff quality went right down the Toilet, and will never be the same ...
