Has anyone seen the presentation video of the replacement of the 11000SE?

It seems to be a combination of the 11000SE and the Horizon that came out last year. It looks just like the Horizon with the large 11" past the needle. It has the Acufeed system but now they call it Acufeed Flex and there's a snap on plate (no more screw drivers). Stitch width can now go to 9mm instead of 7. You can edit embroidery designs either on the screen or hook it up to your computer and work on it in real time.

There's like 400 stitches and there's some sort of a stitch composer program that you can create your own decorative stitches.

Since I have both the 11000SE and the Horizon I might have to trade both in.

My guess is that this will be hugely expensive though probably in the 8 to 10 thousand range, kind of like Berninas.

I'm not affiliated with Janome in anyway other than I own Janome machines.

Any thoughts of those who've seen it?

Sorry for posting on this subject, I now see another thread on this machine, but at least you got a picture to look at.

It is a beauty; but I would prefer to have the 11000 and 7700, so in case something goes wrongwith one, you still have the other machine.
Just an opinion.....I know we all have one lol. I love my 7700!

I think it is the best looking machine they have come out with since the 6500P! At least they got rid of the moveable screen which was useless IMHO.

I haven't seen it yet. But our LQS that sells Janomes is having an unveiling party with refreshments and all. I just got a new Pfaff 4.0 in January, so I'm trying to not put this one on my calendar to attend!
