The Janome Memory Craft 6700 Professional (MC6700P) represents the pinnacle of "hybrid" sewing technology, bridging the gap between a domestic computerized machine and a heavy-duty industrial workhorse. As the industry’s first top-loading bobbin machine to reach speeds of 1,200 stitches per minute (SPM), it is designed specifically for professional-level garment construction, high-speed quilting, and intensive home décor projects.
Featuring a seamless 10" all-metal flatbed workspace and Janome’s legendary AcuFeed Flex™ layered fabric feeding system, the 6700P provides the stability and precision required for the most demanding sewists. Whether you are piecing a king-sized quilt or tailoring heavy denim, this machine delivers industrial power with the intuitive ease of a computerized interface.

Why Customers Love This Machine
The Janome 6700P is a favorite among the "serious sewist" community because it removes the common bottlenecks of home sewing. Quilters rave about the 10-inch throat space and the included extension table, which allow for effortless management of bulky layers. Professional dressmakers value the manual thread tension dial, which offers granular control that "automatic" systems often lack when working with specialty threads. Unlike plastic-heavy domestic models, the die-cast metal frame ensures the machine doesn't "walk" or vibrate during high-speed operation, resulting in straighter, more professional-looking stitches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this machine have a free arm for sewing sleeves?
A: No. The MC6700P is a "Flatbed" machine. This design is chosen specifically to provide a larger, more stable, and perfectly flush sewing surface, which is preferred by quilters and professional tailors for high-speed precision.
Q: Can I use industrial high-shank feet with this machine?
A: Yes! The MC6700P is a high-shank machine, making it compatible with a wide range of professional and industrial-style presser feet.
Q: Is the thread tension automatic or manual?
A: It features a manual industrial-style tension dial. This is a "pro" feature that allows you to make micro-adjustments for specific thread weights (like heavy topstitching thread or fine silk) that automatic sensors often struggle with.
