I like it!

published

I really enjoy using this machine, I have had a few issues, but they are mostly due to me not knowing how to use it properly, with a little reading of the manual, it has worked out just fine. I was happy with all the extras and it certainly has been a fabulous machine to learn to sew on. I have only been sewing cotton.

Purchased in March 2021 for A$650.00.

Very disappointing

published

I bought this machine for the fancy stitches but they are so tiny it is hard to even see what they should be. My machine stops at times with an error code and I have to wait for it to settle before I can start sewing again. Only seems to sew normal cotton material, anything a bit different or thicker and it skips stitches so the stitch ends up about 1/2 to 1 inch long. It builds up dust in the bobbin area very quickly as well. It's a pity as I love the needle threader which works very well and also the spring foot. Am going to sell it and get something different.

Purchased in May 2021 at Janome Everton Park Brisbane for A$699.00.

Thought this was an upgrade...not

published

I thought I was upgrading from the 6260 quilters choice as it has a thread cutter and supposedly can handle thick fabrics. Don’t buy it, you will be disappointed. It is noisy and has trouble with fine fabrics, and thick and stretch is a nightmare to do. I would happily take it back. I have had it 3 weeks and hate it, thinking of selling and getting an older and more reliable machine, biggest mistake ever. I don’t even want to sew anymore
