+ Janome has decades of experience making these horizontal rotary hook machines with a top-loading bobbin.  All of the brands we sell make reliable machines (that’s why we don’t sell every brand), but Janome gives us the least amount of issues.
+ Janome is a Japanese company.  Their R&D facilities are located in Japan, with their factories in Taiwan and Thailand.  We have seen their factories in Thailand with our own eyes.  The quality control is top-tier.

+ Generally speaking, the more throat space, the happier a sewist will be.  It’s one of those features that you use every time you sit down to sew.
+ The feel of this machine is incredible due to the motor, the metal frame, and the heavy-duty flatbed design.
+ Combine the Accurate Stitch Regulator with the machine’s incredible touch & feel, the MC9480 gives sewists an incredible free motion sewing experience.
+ The MC9480 has a user-friendly design that is easy to thread: automatic needle threader, drop-in bobbin, clear view of the take-up lever, etc.  Threading the machine properly is half the battle, so we value ease of threading a lot.
