I don't see the Janome brand name mentioned any where on this machine. It looks more like an independent version than a corporate sponsored one like the Viking 18.8 I would be jumping all over any of the new Tin Lizzy manufactured machines if I was a new mid-arm wanna-be, though. No criticism intended. I just didn't want others to run to their Janome dealers expecting to buy this machine as I don't believe it being sold by Janome.
