Love my Juki 2010Q. It's a workhorse. I have had it 2 yrs and could literally hug it everytime I turn it on. It is a straight stitch only and you can use it on a frame. All metal, very reasonable priced. Great stitches and tension. 9" throat, all metal, professional feet, including the bobbins. Offers thread cutting on foot pedal, needle up down, speed control and very even stitches for FMQ. I have never even had even a sneeze from this machine. I also have a Janome 8900 and really wish I would have purchased the 9400, but it was alot more money for a few upgrades just organized (?) a bit better. Nice machine, lots of stitches, huge work space, 11" needle up down, speed control, auto thread cutter (on machine or purchase an additional food). The stitches are even and machine is really easy to learn. But I have to say, the Juki has a more solid sturdy feel to it and is more open. Good luck with what ever you purchase, if you can take it for a test a few machines locally then price them out at various dealers.
