Janome Memory Craft 6700P Product Review & Demonstration
The Janome Memory Craft 6700P sits within Janome's Professional Series, built for ambitious sewers, dressmakers and quilters who need speed, workspace and dependable fabric handling across a wide range of projects. At full speed, the Janome 6700P is one of the fastest top-loading bobbin machines in its class, which means you can power through long seams, quilting rows and production runs without sacrificing stitch quality. The all-metal aluminium flatbed provides 10 inches of workspace, and the included extra-wide extension table increases that working area further for king-size quilts, curtains and coats.
The MC6700P is packed with practical features that speed up your workflow. The Superior Needle Threader threads the needle in seconds, while the automatic thread cutter trims both threads at a touch of a button. The independent bobbin winding motor lets you prepare a fresh bobbin without interrupting your project. Adjustable presser foot pressure and an industrial-style external tension dial give you precise control over stitch formation across fabrics from fine silk to heavy denim and canvas.
Swap between zigzag, straight stitch and the HP needle plate at the push of a lever. No screws or tools needed. The HP plate works with the included HP foot for narrow, industrial-style stitching, precise topstitching and accurate quarter-inch seams. The legendary AcuFeed Flex system guides fabric evenly from top and bottom, which is particularly useful for plaids, stripes and multiple layers. The convertible free-motion quilting foot set (closed toe, open toe and clearview) gives you the setup you need for free-motion quilting and stippling.
With 200 built-in stitches, 9 one-step buttonholes, two monogramming fonts and a 3.6-inch LCD screen, the Janome 6700P gives you full creative control across garments, quilts, home décor and accessories.
This is a great all-round machine that will last the test of time. It is a joy to use and will help you achieve brilliant results every time.

Materials and Build Quality
The Janome MC6700P is built around a full aluminium die-cast body with a powder-coated finish that resists scratches and wear over years of use. The flatbed provides 10 inches of workspace to the right of the needle, which gives you room to manage quilts, curtains and large garment pieces without constant repositioning. The included extra-wide extension table increases that working area further.
The aluminium construction absorbs vibration at high speeds, which means the machine stays stable and stitch quality remains consistent even when running at 1,200 stitches per minute. This is a machine built for daily use and long sewing sessions, not just occasional projects.
Industrial-grade ball bearings support the main drive shaft, reducing friction and mechanical noise during extended sewing sessions. This means the MC6700P runs smoothly at full speed and maintains consistent stitch formation across thousands of stitches without overheating or losing tension.
The robust internal frame and drive system handle heavy fabrics, multiple layers and dense quilting with ease. Whether you are sewing through several layers of denim, quilting through wadding and backing, or topstitching canvas, the machine maintains even feed and stitch quality throughout.
The MC6700P uses a 7-piece feed dog system that grips fabric firmly and feeds it evenly through the machine. Combined with the AcuFeed Flex dual feed system, which feeds fabric simultaneously from top and bottom, the machine handles slippery fabrics, knits, plaids and multiple layers without shifting or puckering.
The Superior Needle Threader threads the needle with a single push of the lever, and the automatic thread cutter trims both upper and lower threads at the touch of a button. These features reduce setup time between seams and keep your workflow moving efficiently across long projects.
This machine is perfect for
- Experienced sewers looking for a superior build quality and a professional grade all-round machine that will last the test of time
- Suited to all sewing tasks including dressmaking and garment construction, quilting, home furnishings, bag making and upholstery
Can sew but not ideal for
- Sleeve hems and small tubular items. The 6700P does not have a free arm.
Not suitable for
- Complete beginners may find the advanced features overwhelming
- Budget conscious sewers - this machine is an investment
The Difference is in the Details
At up to 1,200 stitches per minute, the MC6700P is one of the fastest top-loading bobbin machines in its class. The independent bobbin winding motor lets you wind a new bobbin without stopping your project. The automatic thread cutter trims both threads at a touch of a button and the programmable direct select keypad gives you one-press access to your most-used stitches, so you spend less time navigating menus and more time sewing.
The all-metal aluminium die-cast chassis and industrial-grade ball bearings are built for sustained, high-volume use. The powder-coated body resists scratches and wear, and the robust drive system handles heavy fabrics without strain. The machine comes with a 2-year Janome parts and labour warranty as standard for domestic use (1 year for commercial use). You can extend this to a maximum of 5 years by purchasing an extended warranty from Janome within 30 days of purchase.
Our in-house team at The Sewing Studio is available by phone, email and live chat to help with any questions before or after purchase. As authorised Janome retailers, we can also connect you with Janome's national network of service centres for repairs and servicing, for warranty support the machine would need to come back to us. Visit our help centre for guides, FAQs and troubleshooting articles.
The 3.6-inch LCD screen displays stitch previews and recommended settings for every stitch in the library. The included stitch chart provides a quick visual reference for all 200 stitches, and the customisable direct select keypad helps you build muscle memory for your most-used settings. You can also find tutorials, tips and project ideas on our YouTube channel.
Three bright LED lights illuminate the workspace evenly, reducing shadows across the needle area. Rotary encoder dials for stitch width and length give you precise, tactile control without navigating screen menus. The large foot controller provides smooth speed regulation for long sewing sessions, and the knee lifter frees both hands for fabric guidance when pivoting, quilting or working with bulky materials.
Janome Memory Craft 6700P: A Machine for Every Maker
And every project
One of The Fastest Top-Loading Bobbin Machines in Its Class
At up to 1,200 stitches per minute, the MC6700P powers through long seams, quilting rows and production runs without sacrificing stitch quality. The independent bobbin winding motor and automatic thread cutter keep your workflow moving with minimal interruption.
AcuFeed Flex for Controlled Fabric Feeding
The AcuFeed Flex dual feed system guides fabric evenly from top and bottom, so layers feed through together without shifting or puckering. This is particularly useful for plaids, stripes, slippery fabrics and multiple layers where a standard presser foot causes uneven results.
Three Interchangeable Needle Plates at the Push of a Lever
Swap between the zigzag plate, straight stitch plate and HP needle plate at the push of a lever. No screws or tools needed. The HP plate works with the included HP foot for narrow, industrial-style stitching and accurate quarter-inch seams.
Inside the Janome Memory Craft 6700P
Built-In Computerised Stitch System
The MC6700P includes 200 built-in stitches covering utility, decorative, satin and stretch patterns, plus 9 one-step buttonholes and two stitch fonts. The 3.6-inch LCD screen displays stitch previews and recommended settings, and the direct select keypad gives you one-press access to your most-used stitches.
AcuFeed Flex Dual Feed System
The AcuFeed Flex system is Janome's walking foot technology. It feeds fabric simultaneously from top and bottom, which means layers stay aligned through the entire seam. This is essential for plaids, stripes, knits and quilting layers where uneven feed causes shifting and distortion. The result is even, professional results across a wide range of fabrics and project types.
One-Step Needle Plate Conversion
Three interchangeable needle plates swap at the push of a lever: zigzag, straight stitch and HP. No screws, no tools, no downtime. The HP plate pairs with the included HP foot for narrow, industrial-style stitching, precise topstitching and accurate quarter-inch seams. This system lets you switch between tasks quickly without breaking your workflow.
Industrial-Style External Tension Dial
The external rotary tension dial gives you precise, tactile control over thread tension without navigating screen menus. Combined with adjustable presser foot pressure, you can fine-tune stitch formation across the full range of fabrics, from fine silk and chiffon to heavy denim, canvas and multiple quilting layers.
Superior Needle Threader
The Superior Needle Threader threads the needle with a single push of the lever. It is fast, reliable and eliminates the frustration of manual threading, especially when working with fine or specialty threads. This feature alone saves time at the start of every project and every thread change.

Frequently Asked Questions
Let us help with the answers.
How fast is the Janome MC6700P?
The MC6700P sews at up to 1,200 stitches per minute, making it one of the fastest top-loading bobbin machines in its class. This speed is particularly useful for long seams, quilting rows and production runs where maintaining momentum saves significant time across a project.
What is AcuFeed Flex and how does it work?
AcuFeed Flex is Janome's integrated dual feed system, which functions like a built-in walking foot. It feeds fabric from both the top and bottom simultaneously, so layers stay aligned and move through the machine evenly. This is particularly useful for plaids, stripes, slippery fabrics, knits and quilting layers where a standard presser foot causes shifting or puckering.
How do the interchangeable needle plates work?
The MC6700P has three needle plates — zigzag, straight stitch and HP — that swap at the push of a lever. There are no screws or tools involved. The HP plate pairs with the included HP foot for narrow, industrial-style stitching, precise topstitching and accurate quarter-inch seams. This system lets you switch between tasks quickly without interrupting your workflow.
Is the MC6700P suitable for quilting?
Yes. The MC6700P includes a convertible free-motion quilting foot set with closed toe, open toe and clearview options. Combined with the drop feed function, the 10-inch workspace, the extra-wide extension table and the AcuFeed Flex system for piecing and layered work, the machine is well suited to quilting projects of all sizes.
What warranty does the MC6700P come with?
The MC6700P comes with a 2-year Janome parts and labour warranty as standard. This can be extended to 5 years through Janome's extended warranty programme. Our team at The Sewing Studio is also available for ongoing support, advice and servicing referrals.
