Holy cow, that's a fraction of the price at Amazon!! Good for you!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: |
Yes,last year I read about people finding them at Walmarts. Called all the stores near me, and one was left in Whitewater! They clearenced them when theywent to the SE400, mine cant hook up to the internet w/o a special cord. BUT, perfect to learn on!

For about the 4th time, I have the Janome 350E and love it. Each machines has their own format (language) that they read. I feel that it is important to have the USB port. Cards are too hard to find and very expensive when you do. The bobbin issue with the Janome 300E the lady mentioned is as simple as an adjustment. Whenever a machine has a thread cutter, it is wise to let the thread cutter do its job and stop. Sometimes we are over-anxious to see what our work looks like and we jerk before the thread cutter is done. There is a tiny spring on the bobbin area that needs to be treated gently. It will do the work that needs to be done but it needs to be treated as a surgeon treats his tools. Whatever you decide, you will truly enjoy a new machine and doing things you only dreamed about. Just my nickel's worth Susan.

I'm looking for a purchase in the future also. There are 2 things that stand out for me. One is the abiltiy to resize within 10% up or down on the Janome. The Brother doesn't state the machine will do that and 2nd the construction. The Janome 340e is ball bearing construction and will last forever. 2nd is a very important consideration for me and is the main reason I purchased the 6600 for quilting. The only thing that I don't really like about either machine is the LCD is in gray scale not color.
