Just saw this thread I bought a Janome Junker Artistic 18 three years ago w/Grace frame for $8945. Have had multiple problems with the jog switch and tension. Had wiring harness replaced about two years ago. When she's not in PMS mode she works well. I use it for my own quilts only. When she's in her _______ mood I could use her for a boat anchor. The dealer I used no longer carries them. They have not been helpful in resolving current issues. I would strongly advise looking at other brands. This longarm has a bad reputation with good reason.
