100%A superb machine, I bought it primarily for Quilting / embroidery. It has a huge space to the right of the needle and has a very large work area, I do not find the need for an extension table as the area is generous enough. As to the embroidery side, it has the largest stitch area on any machine in this price range and the software is capable of handling most formats unlike a lot of other machines which only take one or perhaps two formats at the most. Don't miss out, its a great price!

100%Delivery was very quick and once the surprise of the scale of the packaging was over, I was soon able to get the system up and running. The system is very productive and tells you when something is not correctly set up.

100%Being used to stitching on industrial sewing machines for many years I wanted a domestic sewing machine that was basic, strong and reliable. I have used the Janome for many years now and still going strong, never once had any problems and has never needed a service either.

100%This is my first embroidery machine. I chose it because I've had many years of service from my Brother sewing machine and expect this one to be similar quality. So far, everything is going well. It is easy to use and the screen is simple to navigate. I'm going to buy a smaller hoop for small projects - it's a shame there is only one hoop included. A little more experimentation with different types of stabilizer required now I think!!

100%Although I ordered this item for someone else I did recommend your site and the Sewing Machine as I bought one from you when I was living in Cyprus in June 2006. I still have that sewing machine and wouldn't part with it, I bought a Janome Jem. I ordered it and it arrived within a couple of days, what fantastic service, and your service is second to none.

Review by Jayee L
100%I chose the Silver Viscount 1045 after much research and after trying it out for the last week I am very pleased with it. The manual is good and the machine is easy to use. I particularly wanted a machine with a top loading bobbin, an automatic needle threader, a one-step buttonholer, and the stop/start button with the speed control which means you can use it without the foot-control. It has all of these, an impressive number of stitches and is also light-weight and has a hard-cover. My first attempt at a buttonhole had an amazingly professional appearance and it is so easy, set it up, press the button and away it goes. On top of that, I found the people at Silver Viscount very helpful when I e-mailed them to ask if it could cope with materials from very fine to vinyl and leather - the answer - yes if you use the correct needle..
