The Janome Memory Craft 6700 Professional is a Semi industrial machine with a flat plate that eliminates table vibration at high sewing speeds. It is the fastest household machine in its class with a maximum sewing speed of 1200 stitches per minute. The flat plate work area of 255mm is a pleasure to work on and once your large extension table is attached the work space is increased significantly. Lighting on the Janome MC6700 is no problem white LEDs are located in 3 areas that illuminate the work area so you can sew at ease in the dark. An LCD screen and large reference chart allow you to easily navigate the 200 built-in stitches, including 9 one-step buttonholes and 2 fonts including 9mm wide letters and numbers. You can customize every stitch on the Janome MC6700 including buttonholes plus save it as a favorite stitch.
