This sewing machine is a dream to use! I do mostly quilting these days and this machine runs very smoothly and quietly with no effort. Stitches are even and fabric is pulled through effortlessly as advertised using the acufeed foot attachment. The auto-threader is very easy to use and I love the auto-thread cutter. My previous machine is a 30 year old Janome that did not have all these new features but still works beautifully which is why I chose to remain with Janome name for my upgrade. I also love the larger throat space provided and the larger bed-table that comes with it. Would be nice if the table could be secured a bit better as it tended to slip at times when I had to manouver a large quilt going through for stitch in the ditch quilting. I also love that the Instruction Book provided is very detailed and full of sewing tips to refresh my memory and learn things that help with sewing different fabrics and techniques. I am very anxious to use some of the wide variety of built-in stitches on my projects. My old machine had a lot of built-in stitches which I used as well but this one is loaded with even more! .Overall so far, I would highly recommend Janome.
Received a Janome AE S6 earlier this week, it works great, the stitches are even, the machine is quiet, it has all the features that I wanted and more, I will be very happy with this machine
