I have the Janome Memory 6600 and I LOVE IT! The machine takes a licking and keeps on sewing. I have taken it with me wherever I go and it has never failed me. I just recently purchased the 760 and love it! I also have the 5 over serger which I love. So as you can tell, I am a Janome fan. By the way, my first quilt was made on a small $178.00 Janome with no problems! My second one was King size and was made on the 6600. You can't go wrong with a Janome in my book. Good luck! GiGi :lol:
