I have the Janome Horizon and my experience is as Rita has already told you. I love, love, love it for FMQ. I have not used it for knits or jersey. Take some of that fabric to the dealer and give it a try. Do the others you are looking at have the 25 year warranty? It is made to be a workhorse. It was hard for me to find anything to measure up.

That just reminded me - I brought a couple of large quilt sandwiches and lots of different threads (including metallics) when i went to try out the Horizon. It made all the difference in the world because I could really see and feel how the machine behaved with what I would normally be throwing at it. If I was at home I would try out some jersey material to let you know how it responds, sorry.Originally posted by loise98

Thanks Lois and Rita. I was not aware that the Horizon has a 25 year warranty. Glad you are enjoying your machine Lois and that you are finding it robust. I will take your advice and try out some jersey fabric at the dealers along with a quilt sandwich. Hope you are enjoying your time away from home Rita it was kind of you to say you would have tried out some jesey for me. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer all my questions, I really appreciate it.
