I have not been happy with my Janome 7700--lots of annoying glitches, especially with the bobbin. Does anyone have the new Brother Laura Ashley Isadore? It looks and sews like a dream machine. Of course this is a trade in and up (more money). I am very tempted to do this trade. What can you all tell me about the Brother Isadore?

I'm watching. Heard how good the Janome's are but it sounds like you got a lemon.

Just curious, what kind of bobbins issues are you having? Maybe someone can help?

I think the 7700s are stIll too new to have all the bugs worked through.

I dont know about the Janome but I now havw two Brothers and love them both almost more than my Vikings

I have a Brother Laura Ashley- love the machine- seems like you get alot more bang for your buck with Brother- the machine is wonderful- I also have a Brother innovis which I also love- I would not even think twice about buying another Brother machine

The Isadore is also new, big $$$, and subject to new machine glitches. Why not deal with the problems on your Horizon and get the machine you paid for? Join the Horizon yahoo group, lots of info and support there. List and document the problems with your Horizon, and take it to your dealer. A lot of people have gotten fixes and even replacement machines.

What are your bobbin issues?

I have the Janome 7700 and a Brother Innovis 4000d and I love both.

Hugs

I got a Brother laura Ashley Innovis 2000. I have really enjoyed it. I had replaced an 35 year old Singer. I looked at others but the money difference, I got the Brother.
