I have a Janome 6500. Great machine. I purchased a Horizon 8200 Memory Craft 2 years ago. I just sold it (at a loss) and bought a Janome 6700. I love the 6700 (still have the 6500). The major thing I did not like about the 8200 is the slant of the front of the machine where the control buttons are (start/stop, scissors, tie off, reverse).
