Has anyone got one of these?  I noticed it on Pattern Review and thought it was just a USA machine but Frank Nutt has one.

It looks massive and very expensive.  Can't believe anyone would spend that much money on a machine but there again, if you can afford it, why not.

Never mind, someone might buy it for me as a Christmas present  :S  Or maybe not.  I'll just have to drool.

Wow, for that price I would want it to cut out the fabric and sweep the floor afterwards.

I suspect you are actually getting what you pay for with that machine.  The thing to make me drool is the massive harp space, but it seems to be very solid and capable as well.

However, and I don't want to be mean to it, it is really ugly!   :[

Stunning machine, stunning price!  It's huge, I think my sewing table would collapse under it.  Too big and too expensive for me, but I can see why anyone sewing professionally would want one.

@Acorn I agree.  But I’ve always thought Janome machines were ugly.

I saw this machine at Alley Pally and it does look amazing but far toooo big for me
