SewingMachinePlus.com Customer Personal Review
"After owning a Bernina 817 for ever, I finally decide to buy a new modern machine. After many months of research and test driving many different machines I finally decided on the Janome 6500. The price and all it offered is why I chose it. It has all the features (and more) that I wanted for quilting. Most important was the extra wide throat area. I love the needle threader and don't know how I ever managed without it. The ease of switching from one of the many stitches to another is wonderful! This is a great machine! I highly recommed it for those who want alot of machine but not alot of money!"

Key Features
Automatic Thread Cutter.
The Quick Key directly above the needle activates the Automatic Thread Cutter and accurately snips your thread. You can also program the machine to clip your thread at the end of a custom stitch sequence.
Knee Lift.
Press the knee lift to raise the presser foot while leaving the needle in place so you can keep your hands on your work. A favorite feature of quilters, it's also very useful for garment and home decor projects. If you accidentally bump the lift while you’re sewing, the MC6500P has a built-in safety feature that stops the machine and gives you a warning. You won't break a needle or ruin your project.
9 inches x 5 inches of Bed Space.
9 inches x 5 inches (225mm x 120mm) is the largest arm and bed space of any household sewing machine. It comes standard with a generous extension table for even more room.
Easy Access Feed Dog Control.
For quilting or other free-motion sewing, you can quickly drop the feed dogs. The lever is right on the front of the machine.
Customize Stitches.
Stitches can be elongated, flipped and combined with other stitches, then saved into the Memory Recall Bank. Adjust stitch width from 0 to 7mm. Adjust length from 0 to 5mm.
Easy Needle Threader.
Another great time saving feature. Just push down the lever, loop the thread through, release, and your ready to sew.
More Needle Positions.
Janome is known for precision stitch quality, but the MC6500P takes it to the next level. It has 71 total needle drop positions (including 15 left to right needles positions). Your decorative stitches have the detail and quality you expect and deserve.
Shortcut Buttons.
The shortcut buttons are all within easy reach right above the sewing area. Plus, the Automatic Thread Cutter and Needle Up/Down keys have indicator lights, so you never have to guess if they’re turned on. The buttons are:
• Automatic needle threader.
• Needle Up/Down.
• Lock Stitch.
• Reverse Keys.
Independent Bobbin Winder.
When you need to wind another bobbin, there's no need to stop and unthread the machine. The Memory Craft 6500P has an Independent Bobbin Winding Motor. You can wind your bobbin while you keep sewing.
Quick Flip Stitch Chart.
All 135 stitches are easy to find on a clever flip chart that folds up from the back of the machine.
Pressure regulator with visible pressure gauge.
Sometimes bulky layers of fabric need more pressure from the foot. Other times sheer fabrics need less. The MC6500P lets you control how firmly the foot is pressing on your fabric. The Visible Pressure Gauge shows you the exact position of your ideal setting so you can get the same results every time.
Ergonomic and Intuitive Design.
Easy-access, raised keys and a bright, clear LCD screen give you efficient navigation through all the machine’s operations. Press a key and the screen displays everything you need to know about the stitch or function. Giant stitch diagrams pop up to confirm your stitch selection. For more information or options, simply press the Help key.
