Memory Craft Horizon 8200 QCP Special Edition Computerized Sewing Machine w/Black Roller Trolley Case + Semi-Hard Cover + Much More!

I am very pleased with this beautiful sewing machine. The trolley, semi-hard cover, walker foot, and needles were shipped separately. I received the sewing machine first. Everything is high Janome quality. This is an upgrade from my Brother. I have been learning how to quilt. This purchase has made my journey smoother. The seller promptly answered my inquiry. Highly recommend.

This machine has been in constant use for almost two months. I am really getting into machine quilting my own quilts and am grateful to have a machine with a large harp area, reliable stitching quality and many features of a far, far more expensive machine. The dual feed attachment, ability to change out the needle plates, enhanced lighting, the easy to use controls, knee bar, and automatic thread cutter are all valuable features. Yes, it is a bit heavy (note though that I’m in my 70s), but it is not impossible to haul around if necessary. I had a Janome before that was fine, but this machine is wonderful!

Received this a couple of days ago during a cold snap. Left it on the table over night to bring it up to room temp before I started it. And once I did, I was super impressed. I have loved my Pfaff 1475 for 30 years and used it to death. It still works but some glitches were showing up and there wasn't anyone around to fix it. So after looking for a year or so, I bought this even though it didn't have the integrated dual feed that I loved so much in my Pfaff. Shouldn't have worried. It feeds beautifully without it! Stitches are well formed, it's a quiet machine, this came with everything I needed wrt accessories and so far, everything works as promised. Love the built in needle threader, the way I can adjust both thread tension and foot tension, lots of light, push button thread cutter, etc. The covers are beautiful and the extension table is impressive! Only thing I am not crazy about is the dial. Didn't realize I would be uncomfortable with it. I will be using the screen to choose my stitches whenever possible. Call me weird, but it just seems as if the dial is something that might be the first (and possibly ONLY) thing to break on this. Oh, and it's a substantial machine. Heavy and wide. Love the width of the throat because I am a quilter but I will not be taking this machine with me out of the house. Have my Pfaff as a back up for sewing classes. Will update this review if I find it warrants an additional star or if I need to remove one. Right now I'd say this is one amazing sewing machine.

The seller is quick to respond to messages with any concerns and the machine works like a dream! It has cut down what would be a whole day’s work into a few hours. Great product.

Barely had this machine 3 weeks and can't say enough about how much I love this machine! It practical sews by itself. The Special Edition came with so many extras I still haven't learned it all. I'm waiting for the seller, World Weidner, to send the soft cover which is on backorder from Janome. The seller has been helpful so far. I will update once I get the soft cover. The 8200 runs quietly, it's BIG, with an 11" throat. It puts up with my mistakes as I learn how to use all of its wonderful settings and accessories. It's well built and durable. I've only used sewing machines sparingly in the past but am now embracing this machine and learning to free-motion quilt. If you're in the hunt for a machine, I can't recommend the MC8200QCP Special Edition enough!
