Janome Magnolia 7330 Sewing Machine Review
When you take one look at the Janome Magnolia 7330 computerized sewing machine, it's hard to ignore that Janome - known for solid, precision machines - designs their machines around the user. No boring, plain white layouts here. Nice, bright sunshine-yellow flowers and purple accents adorn the front panel. It's also incredibly versatile.
This is the top of the line model in the Magnolia series and is capable of doing multiple kinds of sewing such as mending, garment construction, and quilting.
It is sturdy, stays in place as you work and has lots of stitch patterns and features that make sewing easy such as push button controls and programmable needle settings.
Janome Magnolia 7330 Stitch Patterns
There are 30 built-in stitches including six styles of one-step buttonholes. These stitches include straight, zigzag, Janome's Lock-o-matic stitch, stretch stitches, overcasting, overedge, double overedge, several satin stitches, a patchwork stitch and a quilting stitch.
Stitch width is adjustable to 5mm and stitch length is adjustable to 5mm, depending on the stitch. Simple plus/minus buttons control width and length after your stitch selection has been made. While thread tension is automatic and includes the Janome precision that produces smooth and controlled stitches, it is also adjustable as needed for more complex stitch projects.
Janome Magnolia 7330 Presser Feet
Presser foot height has three levels including down, up and extra-up to accommodate thick fabrics and quilting projects. The Janome Magnolia 7330 sewing machine comes with four snap-on style, low shank presser feet: General Purpose foot, Zipper foot, Satin Stitch foot, and the Automatic Buttonhole foot.
Janome Magnolia 7330 Features
Other than the hand crank wheel, all functionality is achieved through simple push button controls. Even the foot pedal is unnecessary with the use of the speed control slider and the Start/Stop sewing button.
There are buttons to select your stitch pattern, a button for reverse stitching, and a memory button to instruct your needle to stop in the up or down position as you need. A Needle Up/Down button is perfect for helping to make tight corners for pockets, seams, and blankets.
For beginners, things like the automatic needle threader, automatic bobbin winder, top loading bobbin with see through cover, automatic thread tension, jam proof bobbin system, and a nice, slow-starting machine speed help you learn with far less aggravation than machines that have picky thread tension settings, more manual operation, or lurching foot pedals. One action that can result in thread jams is sewing off the edge of the fabric but not on this machine.
The drop feed dog system allows for free motion quilting, free motion embroidery, darning, and button attachment. With the push of a button, you can also repeat and reinforce your buttonhole stitches.
Thread delivery is horizontal, the needle has fifteen possible positions, there is a bright LED screen, a light over the work space and a carrying handle is built into the Janome 7330.
The extension arm removes for free arm sewing and also houses the added accessories.
The Janome Magnolia 7330 sewing machine is fun to work with, runs quietly and has positive reviews from other users.
