Roberta----Yes, A Hall of Fame/Shame would be a good idea, but it is always prudent to do a test stitchout, especially on any new design you acquire. Most, if not all, online sellers do not offer

I hesitated until now but both my 9400QCP and 15000QCP have had hook race issues and both are under 3 years old. Parts took months to get here with the pandemic but fortunately my dealer gave me

Re: About to toss this machine out the window!
It's really hard to tell what's going on from the photos. I'm still doubtful it's a hook race problem, since it only happens in one spot. Unfortunately further diagnosis from here is pretty much down

Re: Second machine for classes
I had the Janome Mod-200, and loves it, but sold it cheaply to a friend in need. She wouldn’t let me give it to her. I missed that little 12-pounder. My S5 and 15000 are just too heavy to tote .

I believe she wants a 9mm foot machine. I had a little M and gave it away when I bought the S7.

Re: Second machine for classes
I have a 3160 which is a very light weight machine. It doesn’t embroider, but it has most of the features for a class machine that you would need.

HI Helen, I recently purchased the S7 so I could have a non embroidery machine yet use my 9mm feet. So far, I'm very happy with it.
