Janome Horizon Memory Craft 9850 Embroidery and Sewing Machine

Love it! Super smooth sewing and lots of accessories. I chose this machine because my mom has a larger version. Very similar. (I guess I'm turning into my mom.) Can't wait to go through her designs and take some home to try. Did I say... I LOVE IT?! ❤️ 😍 💖

I bought this machine because of the 9mm stitch width and all the beautiful stiches designs, plus it runs smooth and easy to understand. Hope it lasts many years of service, Janome has a very good reputation with their sewing machines. I like the machine so far and I am enjoying doing some little projects for my newborn grandchild.

The insanely poor quality of the machine delivered to me is truly unbelievable.

I bought this 9 months ago and have been regularly using it as my primary sewing machine and as an embroidery machine. I was replacing a 25+ yr old Kenmore Elite (which got heavy sewing use by me) and looking to start to get into embroidery. I didn't want to pay for 2 machines, so I sought out a sewing/embroidery combo machine. Pros: great features for the money - lots of great convenience things, great "starter" embroidery machine (especially if you're not sure how much embroidery you'll do), lots of accessories (especially presser feet), and active social media community of owners of this machine who are happy to help answer questions. Cons: machine is heavy, additional accessories usually have to be Janome brand to fit (which can be expensive), the machine is designed for intermediate to experienced sewing- definitely not something that I would recommend to someone just learning how to sew. Overall, if you sew, do light embroidery and don't want to spend a fortune on 2 machines, this is a GREAT purchase.

A very nice machine very user friendly with lots of nice features.
