This Janome sewing machine model could be called a "classic". Although this model was first designed and put into production more than 20 years ago, its reliable construction puts it well ahead of many of the latest sewing machine models made today. First of all, unlike other newer models, it has an all-metal body, is stable, has a very reliable construction and performs as many as 23 operations (overcasting, stretch, blind stitch, elastic attaching, reinforced zigzag, many decorative stitches, etc.). It also has a hard plastic cover, a removable sleeve platform, a presser foot pressure adjuster and an exceptionally good lubrication system that the latest models don't have. If you don't want to worry about sewing machine breakdowns and you're looking for an affordable and very reliable sewing machine, and "perhaps" slightly simpler design doesn't matter to you – we assure you it's a great choice.
The updated JANOME Heavy Duty 394 is one of the most durable and sturdy sewing machines on the market and will serve you for many years without any trouble.
The latest model has a built-in needle threader, and the machine's operations are now shown on a white background.
