I have a Janome 7318 and I think you'll really enjoy yours! Mine is mechanical, but yours is computerized and has several functions mine doesn't. I just used mine to furiously quilt 2 quilts on Christmas Eve for the kids - 5 hours straight of quilting both quilts and then another hour or so to bind and no problems. It's 6 years old and has had some hard use over that time but it has held up superbly and I can't complain at all. I would absolutely recommend building a (cheap) foam insulation tabletopper that I just posted about on another thread. I followed the online tutorials by Margeurita McManus (

With a 6.5in throat, I've quilted queen and king sized quilts with the topper and I can't imagine quilting something that big without it. Prior to making the topper, quilting a lap sized quilt was really hard on my shoulders because my 7318 didn't come with an extension table so the quilt was getting hung up on the edges of the machine. After making it, a whole new world opened up! I never take the machine out of the topper so I piece like that as well and it's just so, so great. Hope she enjoys her Janome as much as I love mine!
