Update on my Brother Galaxie
It is now at Brother company itself for repair. The dealer called me some days ago to inform they cannot make it going again. So now I am waiting patiently for further info and am so glad and grateful to have my new janome memory craft 500 which is much more comfortable and silent and has the bigger embroidery area too and the USB device or directly from Computer to machine. Will tell you about the Brother when I get new info - it's now away from home since 12th of January. Maria

I also have a brother Galaxie which cannot be repaired but am still reluctant to take it to the tip it gave me years of enjoyment and I just can't bring myself to throw it out.

For my I also still hope it can be reused as a sewing machine in case they can partially fix the problem. Yes, I can understand you - it was (is) a good companion over many years of stitching and it was (is) a big value too.

I am glad you still have a machine to play with and hope your old friend is repairable.

You will love your new Janome 500e, and have lots of fun embroidering with the bigger hoops. Good Luck with the Brother, I hope that the repairer can do something for you. Sandra.

Hope you get good word on your galaxies.
At least you have a great machine in a Janome. I had the first computerized one - the Janome Memory 7. It is now well over 30years old and still working and never needed a repair. Loved it. So when I saw the newer machines that did embroidery I didn't hesitate to get a Janome - it also is a work horse.
Have fun!

No, definitely the Brother was (and maybe will be again) a very good, useful and trouble free machine for approx. 15 years. Only then it started to fail now and then and in the end she did nothing at all and the display went crazy somehow. I am interested what Brother will find out and let you know. But - as it is - sometimes worse turns to good and therefore I am happy with the Janome. Shall send some projects soon :-) Maria
