Of all the machines I've used over the years, Janome is My Favourite Domestic Sewing Brand By Far - in fact, the only brand I  trust & recommend to everyone.

Unlike many other sewing machine brands - Janome makes ALL of their machines in their  own factories. They don't contract out the manufacturing, and never cut corners just to save a buck.

That means you will always Enjoy Reliable Quality - no matter what your budget might be!

What's the Difference Between Skyline S3 and Other Skyline Models?

Here's what I've prepared for you - a one-glance view features comparison on S7, S5 & S3:
 

The BEST Reason for Choosing Skyline S3 over the Skyline S5, S7, or S9?

Notice the maximum zigzag stitch width - it is 7 mm (as opposed to being 9 mm).

This is important because it allows you the greatest flexibility with optional presser feet & other attachments. For any specilty feet - say, a Concealed Zipper Foot or Bias Binding Foot - you can easy find one that fits regardless of design & brands. Often saving quite a bit in prices.

Beside, most of your mordern sewing machines these days are 7mm - that means if you already have existing snap-on feet from other machines, chances are you can happily use on your new Skyline S3 - saves you having to buy an additional set!

Whereas in a 9 mm width machine - such as the Skyline S7, Skyline S5 or Skyline S9 - you're restricted with just a few options when it comes to presser feet.

Evenif you have snap-on feet from a previous machine - and could snap them on - the  alignments is quite different from a 7mm to a 9mm machine, so they won't work. That's because the needle position is totally different from a 9mm machine to a 7mm.

That means if you go with a Skyline S5, S7, or S9 you WILL need to invest in a new set of 9mm feet. And ALWAYS having to go with branded version, with limited choices.

I know this because I often have customers with 9mm models, asking me for help find specialty feet to fit their machines. It's not always easy or possible.

That means the Skyline S3 is the sensible choice for you - especially if you're planning to optimise your sewing repertoire - such as ruffles, bias binding, even for installing invisible zippers!

Would you like to see the Janome Skyline S3 in action?

Here, watch this video:
 

Not All Sewing Machines Are Made Equal...


Take a peek: an X-Ray view if you will. The photos here show a Janome JR1012 with a see-through exterior.

You can easily see - inside every Janome there is REAL metal (aluminium die-cast to be exact) that can be found in even the most inexpensive, entry level Janome.

The die-cast aluminium frame in a Janome provides the strength and stability required for the precise action of the sewing machine needle and mechanism.


The exterior is just that - a shell - and not part of the structure of the machine.

Unfortunately there are other brands of sewing machine on the market in Australia right now that have no internal frame (let along metal). It means the components are merely attached to the outer plastic shell of the machine. There is simply not enough rigidity for high speed movements!

With Janome, there is always inner structrual support  which means your sewing machine performs better, and it lasts longer. Buy Well, Buy Once.

 

Still not sure?

Here's what one (of many) happy customers had to say after purchasing their Janome Skyline S3:
 

We have been fortunate enough to source a few of these excellent machines for Our Customers....

 

IMPORTANT

Your Machine is Well Protected for Safe Travel.....

So when you open the box, your will find the new Janome Skyline S3 nice and snug inside its own foam cut-out.

I always make sure that my customers keep these foam cut-outs along with the box it came in - just in case you need to move house, put your machine into storage for renovation.

Also, in the highly unlikely event where you may need to send the machine back to us for a any reason - such as making a warranty claim - the machine will need to reach us in all of its original package, because we cannot be responsible for any damage incurred in transit.

The best way to ensure safe travel for your machine is to simply KEEP every bit of the packaging and put them back inside the box, then just store the box out of the way. Easy!

 

 

What's the Difference between "Top Loading" and "Front Loading" machines?

Whether a sewing machine is referred to as "top-loading" or "front-loading" it is the bobbin position that tells them apart.

A "Top Loading" machine has a "drop-in" bobbin, where the bobbin goes in from the top, directly underneath your needle and presser foot. The lid is usually clear so you can see the bobbin.

This type of mechanism is called "Horizontal Full Rotary Hook", where the bobbin is driven by the machine to go round and round in full circle movements. Horizontal refers to the bobbin position - it sits horizontally in your machine and faces up.
A "Front Loading" machine has a different spot for your bobbin. It is hidden behind the storage box, inside a trap door. You cannot see the bobbin at all until you open the trap door - and then you will see a metal bobbin case, which is removable. You filled bobbin goes inside this metal case.

This type of mechanism is called "Vertical Oscillating Hook", where the bobbin goes side to side instead of completing a circle. The bobbin stays vertical inside the bobbin case.
What does "Low Shank" and "High Shank" mean?

It means "shank height" or "shank size".

Most domestic machines have LOW shanks. Just to give you an idea, we sell about 10 low shank presser feet to ONE high shank foot.
 

That means if you don't know what sort of shank your machine has, it's probably a low shank. Because High Shank machines are generally "fancy" embroidery models which are more costly, and those who invest in these models tend to know exactly what shank type it is.


Which one is Skylinen S3?

The Skyline S3 is a "Top-Loading" machine, and uses "Horizontal Full Rotary Hook" mechanism. It has HIGH shank. 7mm Maximum Stitch Width.


Can I buy other presser feet?

Sure! Please see individual listing in our store for details.

This machine comes with seven, so you might want to get a few specialty feet.

Just remember to ask for "High Shank Foot that fits a 7mm Machine" - and it should fit!

 

Where Do I Go For Regular Service Or To Purchase Parts and Accessories?

Janome Japan has been manufacturing some of the BEST machines since 1921. Because of their popularity and reliability any issues with service or parts are easy and cheap to solve.

We also supply other feet and attachments to suit - please check their individual listings in our store for details.

All spare parts and additional accessories are available from any mechanic who looks after Janome.

Just let them know it is a "Top Loading" Janome Machine with "High Shank". They will also be able to service your machine regularly, so you can easily keep your machine working at optimal condition.
From my experience, my Janome has been like a Toyota car - always reliable, simple to operate, easy to buy parts and cheap to service. What else could you ask for in a sewing machine?


Wondering about Warranty? 

In the unlikely event something does go wrong, we've got you covered.

Keep read on below for more details...


Sounds Good - but why wouldn't I buy directly from Janome?

Great question!

Here's something most people didn't know: Janome Australia doesn't deal directly with the public. Neither does Janome USA or Janome UK.

Actually, the authentic Janome website won't let you place orders. You can find all sorts of information there, but you won't find an "Add to Cart" button if you're looking at the real deal.

In case you come across any website with "Janome" in the name that you could buy from - chances are, you've found someone who'd like you to think that you're dealing directly with Janome Australia themselves. Which isn't the case.

Think about it for a second: when someone is prepared to hide the truth about who they really are, what else might they be hiding?


Why should I shop with you over a dealer with a brick-and-mortar shop?

Yes, it is true that we ARE an online store. We do not have a physical shop front.

That means we take online shopping seriously - because this is ALL we do. This is our life's work and we are 100% commited to look after YOU.

Not having a physical shop front means YOU have our undivided attention.

When you shop with us, there will be no distractions, no other customers to fight over, no waiting in line just to ask a question. It's just you, the products you want, and really detailed description plus heaps of photos (that we take ourselves) to make sure that you know exactly what you are ordering. That's our way of making shopping (and sewing) easier for you!

Instead of worrying about rents, keeping up appearances, and going into price-war with other dealers, our sole focus in on how we can make your shopping experience with us as enjoyable as possible. Because life to too short for poor services and you deserve the BEST - afterall, shopping and sewing should be fun. Right?

   

I would like to buy more than one. Can you do a better deal?

Absolutely. Group purchases and wholesale enquiries welcome. 

Our clients include small business owners in dressmaking / tailoring or alteration, group and schools, as well as craft enthusiast / artisans who sell their creations for additional income.

Email us if you want to purchase more than one, or simply make us an offer..... you might be pleasantly surprised!


Is there a phone number so I could speak to someone?

Sure. We will provide you with a direct contact number as soon as you send us an email.


Shelley and the Sew Much Easier team are always happy to answer any question, technical information, pricing or anything else you wish to know!
