Janome HD2200 review
a heavyweight mechanical Janome
8.1/10 provisional Provisional
8kg, adjustable foot pressure, 6.5mm width and 900 stitches a minute. A sensible choice for thicker fabrics without going semi-industrial. Researched from retailer and maker listings; we have not tested it, and the score is provisional.
Pick it if
you want a solid dial machine for thicker fabrics.
Skip it if
you need a straight-stitch speed machine for quilting.
