I would not trade my Janome 6600 for any other machine on the market..mine doesn't have any glitches..i paid $1500. for mine. came with the extension table,white, and a cloth like cover,feet etc...I think one of the main things to consider when buying any machine, is your dealer..mine is wonderful..
