Do not get a Janome 7700. Janome is not makkng them anymore and dealers won't take them on trade in.....look at the 8900 or 8200 with larger harp space. If harp space is not an issue...then look at the janome 6600. All of these have tne built in walking foot. Go to shows or local dealer and try them out...be sure to take a little quilt sandwich to test.
