Oh, how I wish there were a Janome dealer near where I live! I have New Home (Janome) Memory Craft 6000 that I've had for over 30 year...still sews fine, but I did get a Pfaff Expressions a few years ago because there was a dealer in the larger town close to me and I could count on servicing. Well, the dealer decided to close and take a job elsewhere...yeah, I know. If there were a Janome dealer close by, I would see about trading both machine for a newer Janome. (sigh)
