Introducing the Continental M17, the Next Generation Combo Sewing and Embroidery machine!
This engineering marvel features industry-leading technology so you can deliver Hi-Definition Embroidery, Quilting and Sewing.
The Continental M17 combines great convenience features you have come to expect from a Janome machine but also a few industry firsts including the largest ever Embroidery frame measuring 280mm x 460mm!
Another amazing feature is the A.S.R Accurate Stitch Regulator which comes with 3 different feet including one for Ruler Work! It is now easier than ever to change your embroidery hoops witht he simple lever mechanism. The CM17 comes with a huge amount opf accessories too, with 35 sewing machine feet and 5 Embroidery Hoops!
1,230 built-in embroidery designs are standard, including Designer Collections, ten embroidery fonts, and In-the-Hoop projects that will keep you engaged and creative for hours. The RE46d Hoop offers a 11.3” x 18.2” embroidery area. Created with Carbon Fiber infused plastic, this large hoop is 10X stronger than metal! You can now position your designs perfectly with the laser aligning feature as well.
Another fantastic feature is Floating mode, allowing the machine to not extend full preasure to the presser foot while feeding fabric. Perfect for sewing curved seams or areas where fullness is eased and the fabric needs to be manipulated while sewing.
The CM17 features two advanced LCD touch screens! Edit, design and create on the large, 5.3″ x 8.5″ LCD touchscreen, showing you the results in amazing clarity. Then when you’re ready to sew or embroider, the second screen, an industry first, will allow you to fine-tune your stitches, tension, foot pressure, and more!
Another great feature is the New thumb wheel, located to the right of the needle. This industry-first is a great convenience feature that lets you raise or lower the needle without having to reach over to the handwheel.
