    Question sewing machine models

    Anyone know anything about any of these models?

    Singer Traditional 2250

    Janome S-313

    Singer Traditional 2263

    Brother BM 3600

    They are all on special at the moment, and i am tossing up whether to spend money on new pedal for my old machine, or just buy a new one.

    I wouldnt touch a Brother sewing machine...the ones Ive used were tempremental so and so's

    Out of all of them Id defently go Janome.....I love mine...its a gold, I really trash it to pieces and it's still kicking it 5 years later (IK do ALOT of sewing)

    I am so glad you said that, because i ended up buying the Janome!

    I got it on sale at harris scarfe reduced from $450 to $199.

    My old machine is a Janome, a hand me down that is probably 30 years old and has been great. The only reason i'm not using it is the pedal got dropped and broke. The plug for the new machine pedal looks the same as the old one, so i may be able to use both machines with the same pedal!

    Is it the one witht he gold ribbon looking swirl on it???? im thinking of getting a back up one and was looking at that one at HS as well.

    bonus on the pedal looking the same...well done (makes me think if I should look for a secondhand one now without a pedal)
