Janome 18e

The Janome electromechanical sewing machine is quite popular in its class, as it has a good price-quality ratio. For a low cost, the buyer receives a reliable “workhorse” that is ready for active work and has a basic set of functions for performing simple tasks of sewing and repairing clothes. The standard vertical shuttle, made of metal, ensures high quality work when performing stitches.

The powerful motor allows you to work even with dense, thick materials folded in several layers. The internal frame is made of steel and complemented with a stainless steel coating to extend the life of the device. As for the main functions, the Janome 18e creates a buttonhole semi-automatically in 4 steps without the need to turn the fabric, and also performs 14 stitches: straight, zigzag, blind, stretch and overlock.

For this purpose, the package includes 4 feet: universal, for sewing a buttonhole, for sewing in a zipper and for blind stitching. The machine has few settings, so the controls are quite simple and intuitive. The user can manually adjust the stitch length (up to 4 mm), stitch width (up to 5 mm) and thread tension, and also use the reverse lever to secure the seam. The sewing speed is controlled by the pedal. The device also has a removable case for sewing accessories and a sleeve platform, which makes it easier to work with narrow and circular parts of the product such as sleeves and trouser legs.
