Our take on the Janome 2212 Sewing Machine

The Janome 2212 is a basic mechanical sewing machine with 12 built-in stitches, dial pattern selection, and adjustable stitch length and width. It runs up to 860 stitches per minute, has a free arm and drop feed for free-motion work, and uses snap-on presser feet. It suits beginners and casual sewers who want a simple, sturdy machine for hemming, mending, and light garment work. Against computerized rivals it gives up stitch variety and one-step buttonholes, but it is simpler to learn and less to go wrong.
