Audrey - thank you for the information. Consumer Reports is so trustworthy. Have you read the article? Just wondered what they said.

Is this the March 2009 issue???

Yes, it is in the March issue. I just got it in the mail a couple of days ago. So it should be on the newstands now or very soon.

I have searched all over the internet for the Janome 6260 QC. I cannot find a price or anywhere to maybe order online! Any suggestions? I live fairly remotely and there is no where near me to actually go to a dealer.

I am on the hunt for a machine with the features this one has.

Thanks!

Beachrobin: You might go on line and find a dealer near you. enter the machine name and generally you will find a dealer somewhere close to you. E-mail them and get the information you want. Good Luck.
