Janome MC6700P Professional Sewing Machine

The MC6700P has a "real" Heavy Duty professional design with a gloss powder-coated solid aluminum flatbed. It has over 200 stitches plus alphabets and buttonholes up to 9mm wide and can sew at a whopping speed of 1200 Stitches per minute, faster than most others.

The aluminum body and longer arm, provides 50% more working surface than most other machines with an improved work space of 12 inches from the needle, to the right of the machine arm, which improves it's work-ability when dealing with larger Quilts, Curtains, Home Furnishings, Bridal Wear and alike.

Changing from zigzag needle plate to straight stitch needle plate is done with the single push of a button. The needle plate is then released and ready to swap making changing from utility sewing to fine, precision work much faster. The lighting has also been improved, with shadow-less LED lighting set in 3 strategic positions to provide 40% more light. When precision sewing, you can attach the AcuFeed Flex system, to help with those troublesome fabrics and multiple layers. A new Professional Grade Foot comes with this machine providing pinpoint accuracy when creating 1/4 inch seams. Use the Profession Grade Needle Plate (HP) with the Professional Grade Foot and you will be an Improved Professional yourself in no time. Combined, they help achieve the most precise top stitch and sewing curves...absolute luxury with the HP combo.

Believe it or not, Janome have actually found a way to improve the durability of this MC6700P compared with the older 6600P it replaces. The two key elements that have been improved to increase durability are:

1. The lower drive shaft of the machine is now fitted with a ball bearing (like the ones in car engines, only a little smaller), providing low drag, and resulting in greater stability at high speeds, smothness while stitching and durability.

2. The powder coating is the same coating used on industrial sewing machine's. It is a thick flexible coating that is hard to crack and has a very long life span. It is heat and oil resistant and the thickness of the coating actually carries strength in itself and it also protects against scratches.

Being computerised it can save time while stitching, numerous stitching functions have been built-in, for example, a touch button thread end trimmer to faster stitch adjustments via rotating knobs. It has industrial-type top thread tension which can be set or adjusted as required for perfect stitch formation going over 4-5 layers of quilting cotton.

Threading the needle is made easier with the Superior Needle Threader. Simply lay your thread in the threader, trim the excess thread using the manual thread cutter, push the threader lever down and in the blink of an eye it's done...your needle is threaded and away you sew. Fast and threaded every time.

The MC6700P is fully adjustable too. The tension dial is an industrial external type, extending from the body so you can see its setting clearly. You can adjust the pressure of the presser foot, giving you greater control over how the stitches appear in the fabric, whether it be fine fabric or heavy fabric, you can adjust to suit. A collapsible upstanding spool stand allows the user to use large industrial cones of thread. You can even program the machine to set your 7 most "often-used" stitches, sort of a speed dial! Adjust the stitch and length using industrial style electronic encoder dials (sounds fancy, I know). The classy dials offer ease and accuracy when you need to adjust the length and width of the stitch with the adjustments being clearly displayed on the LCD 3.6 inch display. It's a whole lot smoother and less pixelated than most industrial standard machines.
