I bought my janome 11000 as a retirement present for myself, and while I love it when it is working right when it goes bad it really goes bad. Almost from the day I bought it I had problems with the bobbin case. It would embroidery for a while then the bobbin case would lift ant spin around and I would end up buying another case (not a cheap part when you buy often). After a few months my dealer told me it was my fault and when they sent it to the factory for repair I was required to pay for it. Now that it is repaired, I like it a lot better, but live in fear that the case will go bad again.

What a wonderful machine but very expensive. It sews and it embroiders; what more can a gal ask for? The bobbin winder is super. It uses a different motor to wind the thread tightly which provides better results especially when embroidering. Since the motor is separate, I can embroider and wind at the same time. My previous machine had a black & white screen which is OK, but this has a colored screen and makes things more clear and interesting. My main reason for upgrading to the MC11000 is the larger embroidery area. My previous one had max. area of about 4″. This one is double that size!

I’ve read on message boards that some people were having problems with the bobbin case, but I have not had any problems with mine. The thing I find odd is when creating folders in my USB flash drive on my PC, it’s not recognized by the machine. I have to make the folders on the machine.
I got this while there was a promotion going on and received about a thousand embroidery designs. It does cost a bundle and at first I thought I may have rushed into buying but that feeling quickly disappeared when I finally got home got it out of the box. This machine has so much bells and whistles it’s not even funny! The manual is great and I never felt lost. The colored screen is clear and very informative. There are hundreds of built-in decorative and utility stitches.
