I agree with zennia. Have had my Janome 9000 OVER 20 years, and it still runs great - I had one problem with the auto threader that was OPERATOR ERROR (grin). Other than that a great machine. That being said, I have a Brother that I love for just embroidery, and two Babylocks! And never a problem with any of them other than operator error (again). Today's machines are great - so you should just try out both and buy the one you love!
