Janome 224A Sewing Machine

★★★★★ 4.9 from 100+ Google reviews Leave a review

£119.00

A lightweight Janome with a front loading bobbin, so it handles fabric better than most machines at this price. Simple, compact and dependable.

  • Free UK delivery
  • Official dealer, full manufacturer warranty

14 built in stitches

The everyday ones, straight, zigzag and stretch, chosen on a dial rather than through a menu.

Front loading bobbin

The metal bobbin case grips the thread more evenly, which is why the stitch feels better than the price suggests.

Drop feed

Lower the feed dogs and you can darn, quilt freehand or sew a button back on.

Free UK Delivery

On all machines

Official Dealer

Approved by Brother, Janome, Bernina and more

Full in house servicing available

By our own engineers in King's Lynn

Janome 224A Sewing Machine

If you are just starting out, or you want a straightforward machine that simply gets on with the job, the Janome 224A is a lovely place to begin. There are only two dials to think about, so you can spend your time sewing rather than working out what everything does.

Underneath the friendly exterior is proper Janome engineering. The aluminium diecast body keeps everything steady as you sew, so your stitches stay neat and even, whether you are running up curtains or hemming a pair of school trousers. It is also light enough at around 5.4kg to carry to a class or lift out of a cupboard without a fuss, and the soft cover keeps the dust off between projects.

You get 14 built in stitches covering all the everyday essentials, straight, zigzag, stretch and a tidy four step buttonhole, with stitch width up to 5mm and length up to 4mm. The convertible free arm slips inside cuffs, sleeves and little trouser legs, and the front loading bobbin is easy to see and easy to reload. Snap on feet make changing from the standard foot to the zip, buttonhole or blind hem foot the work of a moment, and there is a twin needle facility when you fancy a smart double topstitch.

Included in the box: standard zigzag foot, sliding buttonhole foot, zip foot, adjustable blind hem foot, darning plate, three bobbins, needle pack, seam ripper, foot control, soft cover and instruction book.

Every new machine comes with a two year Janome guarantee, plus a free lesson with us so you leave knowing exactly how to use it. We are always at the end of the phone if you need a hand later on.

Called in today having bought a 2nd hand Janome machine on ebay for an elderly relative. It was described as pretty much unused and had been sitting in a cupboard for 20 years, and it matched the description on arrival. I just wanted it checked over before giving it to its new owner, expecting to leave it for a week or so. Instead the manager of this shop asked to have a look at it, spent maybe 10 minutes looking it over and giving it a trial run stitching and confirmed its condition. We chose some cotton to go with the machine which was all we were charged for. He could not have been more helpful, obliging, personable & informative and the place itself has a quiet air of professionalism and expertise. Many thanks; recommended.

Couldn’t be more helpful, I have rung and visited the shop and have been met with such helpful accommodating people each time. Couldn’t recommend them enough. I was taught how to thread and sort my machine out after I was struggling with it even when I hadn’t purchased from them directly. Cannot fault these people
