Help choosing a machine...
#21
I have a Janome 6600P and I really like it. Have made many throw size and several larger (Full size) quilts no problems. I do use a floor lamp for extra lighting. It is important to have service available if needed.

I'm a Viking/Husqvarna person and treated myself to an Opal 690q last year, but if there isn't a specific brand that you have found you like, I think it would be worth checking out the Costco deal because their customer service is great. If you don't like it or there are problems with it, you can take it back. You should check to see how far away an authorized repair center is, just to be sure it's a reasonable distance. Any other place, I suggest you try it out at the store first to be sure you like it. :-)

I started sewing on a cs6000i and I STILL have that machine! But I love my innovis 1000QC! I haven’t done all it’s capable of doing but I’m sure I will! I chose to stay with brother because of the ease of staying with a brand you know.. for me that worked perfectly! I also have two featherweight’s and a 99k.. I love them all!

I have the Juki2010 and just love it! I use it for all my piecing and FMQ. It works like a charm. I have found the throat space to be adequate. It does beautiful free motion. I do have a Viking Diamond deluxe for other sewing which I love also. Good luck with your decision.

I have two Janome, Magnolia and NQM 2016. I love both, never any trouble, quilted multiple quilts and can’t beat the price. There’s not a dealer near me but they are so popular I believe any good repair person could work on it. I’ve always bought online at sewing machine plus and customer service has always been great. I bought a Simply Sixteen with a Little foot frame from them as well. I did go to a local dealer and looked at another brand and was not impressed. So my trip to the dealer saved me from buying the wrong machine.
