I have not had any problems, it sews perfectly, is extremely easy to thread, wind the bobbin, etc. It came with lots of feet including a walking foot. The instruction book is well illustrated and easy to understand. It does more than I'll probably ever use, but the features are there if I want them. I like mine so much that two friends of mine bought the same machine and they like them. I don't think you should put anymore money into yours!!! You make lots of pretty clothes...a new machine will pay for itself. :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08540972928814756875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5186874526291014902.post-20720965235694546042014-01-24T19:41:12.812-08:002014-01-24T19:41:12.812-08:00I love my Janomes (I have 3 1600, 620 and Memory C...I love my Janomes (I have 3 1600, 620 and Memory Craft 5000). I also have 2 brother embroidery machines which I love. For regular stitching and quilting you can't go past a Janome IMHO. I use the Janome 1600 for quilting on a frame and love it. Both the 1600 and 620 came with extension tables which butt up to the machine for quilting without a frame.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5186874526291014902.post-82651477138574925612014-01-24T17:36:56.645-08:002014-01-24T17:36:56.645-08:00Stacie, When the sewing machine goes to causing tr...Stacie, When the sewing machine goes to causing trouble. and you have already tried the fix it..I think go with the new one..

If so, go for it! BTW, my dealer only charges $89 for a service of my electronic Pfaff, so yours may be a bit high!

I like it. It was a replacement for another brother that I had basically worn out.... I like the other one better but it is no longer made. This one has just about everything you could want. It can be touchy with threading. You know immediately if you need to rethread... it just sounds "off" when you need to run the thread through again. That is about the worst thing I can say about it. I do alterations, custom sewing, quilting on the machine.<br /><br />I do love the thread cutter! :)<br />Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12524340373559839395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5186874526291014902.post-28852776068261324232014-01-24T13:43:34.599-08:002014-01-24T13:43:34.599-08:00I was going to direct you to this craftsy blog pos...I was going to direct you to this craftsy blog post on bird nesting <br /><br />http://www.craftsy.com/blog/2014/01/sewing-machine-thread-bunching-up/<br /><br />But then I saw that beauty Brother and say - just buy the new one :-D<br /><br />I love my Janome.
