I love my Janome and have heard the Juki is grat too, really fast I hear. I would try them out and try to find someone who you can rely on and possible often classes too. I think either option is top of the brands as far as I can tell.

I recently bought a Juki TL2010Q and just love it! It's so fast and so easy. It has a huge throat space that fits twice as much quilt than my old machine, and it FMQs just beautifully. I bought it online from Ed Raichert in Arizona, and they shipped it right out to me. It's selling for $849 there, which is less than elsewhere. It comes with all kinds of stuff-- a walking foot and two quilting feet and some others, including adjustable zipper foot. It also has a big snap-on table, 23" x 13". I am in hog heaven...

The Juki TL 2010Q is just an awesome machine. It's rock solid, a steady performer, and will likely stay in your sewing room the rest of your life, it's that well built. Needle up/down, presser foot knee lever, and a lower thread cutter make this a dream machine. It has a beautiful stitch.

If you're in the market for one of these, call and ask for Les at Ed Raichert's (online) and tell them I referred you. Not only will you get the best service, you'll also get the best price. No affiliation, just one extremely happy customer!
