4120QDC-G Computerized Quilting and Sewing Machine Bundle - Includes Bonus Quilt Kit (Even Feed Foot, Open Toe Darning Foot, 1/4" Seam Foot and More) + 10-Pack Genuine Janome Bobbins

Perfect machine. Bought to make my first grandchild a baby quilt. So easy to use!!!! Great investment and would highly recommend!

Love this machine! This is a perfect all around machine. We are using this for a work project to raise money for our day program for individuals with special needs and it’s a workhorse. We are making totes out of upholstery samples from furniture store donations and it is a workhorse. This is our third Janome and is a nice partner to our two Janome Loft 100’s. It is fairly priced with loads of features and extra accessories that allow us to go a bit deeper with our project, we love it!

I am a sewing machine nerd, I did a lot of research before finding this Janome model. I've had this machine for about 2 months and I have been using it almost daily. There is nothing that this sewing machine cannot sew! It's a beautiful piece of machinery. Very stable. The light is bright, automatic needle threader is so easy to use. The thread cutter feature is the best!! If you are looking for a reliable sewing machine without all of the bells and whistles of a true embroidery machine - buy this one. The letter embroidery stitches are small - but it's not a game-changer for me, as I mostly sew garments and bags. I have sewed jersey knits, cotton, silk and lace. Never had a thread get stuck, no tension problems. It's just fantastic!!

I have been sewing for 40+ years, but have only started quilting in the last year. I have a Kenmore machine and a Baby Lock Serger that I have used most of those 40 years, so this computerized machine was rather intimidating. But the learning curve was almost nothing! The hardest part for me was getting used to the start/stop button instead of the pedal. This machine includes a pedal if you want, but i wanted to try the button. So much faster once I got used to it. The lock stitch and thread cutter buttons are also great time savers, no more picking up all those little threads and grabbing scissors at the end of every seam. The speed control is great, keeping a constant speed, better than using the pedal. The only issue I have had so far is using knit material with the stretch stitch, getting the tension correct is gonna take some practice, more trial and error than my old machines. It was a bit pricey for a hobby sewing machine, but when comparing it with a couple of other machines in the same price range, this one had all the features I wanted.

I have sewn a few basic baby blankets and other simple items over the years on my grandmothers Viking Husqvarna from the 1960’s. It was a bit frustrating to use. I just received my Janome and I am so impressed! The box arrived undamaged. All parts were present and easily identifiable using the owners manual. The DVD contains a quick users guide to the machine so one can start sewing within just minutes. Threading the machine is easy as each step is numbered on the machine. It also contains detailed and easy instructions for maintenance - there are just a few steps. Super easy! The computer screen is VERY easy to use once you understand the few graphics. I practiced many of the stitches included with the machine. Each stitch will recommend a presser foot which is identified by the letter on the foot itself, so easy to get it all right!!! I kicked out an easy jelly roll quilt top in two hours. The machine is quiet, the presser foot moves over stubborn layered fabric without getting stuck and threading a bobbin has never been easier. My only complaints are I am having trouble using the auto needle threading because the hook is so small - I am either not threading it correctly or the needle hole is not lined up. Also, there is just a little lag time from pressing on the pedal to the machine and the machine engaging and speeding up. Last, when I press the power button, there is a one to two second delay for the light to come on and to hear the machine ‘engage.’ If you don’t wait, you will be flipping the switch on/off with some confusion. I look forward to being sew crafty! If you are a serious newbie like me, this is a great machine due to its simplicity and the advanced quilting/stitching and other things you can do on the machine. Update: I was able to figure out using the needle threader - a truly wonderful addition to sewing machines, it is quick! Also, I have moved onto more complicated quilts. I have cleaned the machine twice of lint and fuzz, again easy to do. I replaced the needle as recommended which took just seconds. I easily have 50 hours on the machine now and it is still dreamy. I also use the quilt foot for free motion quilting which worked great - it is just exhausting to fight the layers and move them around the limited throat.

Got this for my birthday..heard great Janome reviews and wanted to be able to do decorative and alphabet lettering on quilts and what have you...didn't even do that..called and wanted replacement from Janome and wouldn't even do that...not great customer service and wanted me to pay $30 an hour for a tech over the phone..I don't think so..so i have a sewing machine that does a straight stitch and zig zag and i paid almost $800 dollars for...not worth it..WELL IT'S 1/25/25 AND I HAVE STILL NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THIS JUNK I KNOW USE AS A DOOR STOPPER...WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS PIECE OF CRAP TO ANYONE...
