London UK Review by Freda
Overall rating Ive just received my new Janome 605 machine and Im thrilled to bits.
Im a very inexperienced quilter and have been using a Singer which is well over 20 years old. I cant
believe how easy to use the Janome is. Its so smooth and quiet and I love all the features.
Its like upgrading to a Rolls Royce after driving an old banger!! Ive just started my first
quilt and wish Id waited until my new machine arrived.
The ordering process was so easy and my Janome arrived within a couple of days. Wonderful service thank you. (Posted on 9/15/10) -
Bristol Review by maz
Overall rating Fantasc Machine! Large range of stitches, large enough for quilts and curtains. Comes with loads of feet and free gift so you dont need to rush out and buy any extras. Really like the memory for storing a pattern of stiches which is good for making matching cushion covers or matching bed linen and curtains. My Mother has now gone a bought one.
