Can a walking foot be used with this machine and has anyone ever used one with it?

There are different walking feet for machines. I have two janome machines, and all my feet are inter changeable, including the walking foot (purchased separately). You have to look at the foot specifications as to whether it will work on the janome. Most give you a list of machines that are approved for its use. Hope that helps.

Yes. Very simple manual operation on this one. It doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles but is well built. Note that the walking/running deck is very solid. A lot of treadmills in this price range have softer decks. This one is built sturdy and can take a hammering while running. If you like the softer/spongier feel of some treadmills for walking, you might consider another brand. Good luck!

I looked thru the manual and I did not find fashion presser foot in it. I think this might be the general purpose foot that the machine is equipped with already. I must say, tho, that the 7567S Model comes with extra attachments that are great. The best one is the Even Feed Walking Foot. It's wonderful for sewing multi-layers and on coth that slips easily like the new PUL waterproof cloth used in making diapers. I love this machine. I had a year now. Fashion sewing, quilting, and embroidery. Also, important note, this model has two lights, not just one, and a drop feed capability. You can't go wrong on this one. Shipped from Amazon quickly and safely.

It should, it is made for Singer and their machines are basically all low shank. I've even found many of my Brother feet work fine with my Singer machine and vice versa. I think many other things change on various models, but not the basic structure of the feet.

I just looked at the machine's owner's manual online and I would say yes, this foot will work great for your machine. Of course if you get it and it doesn't work Amazon.com has always been great with returns.

My wife can use it but I cannot it does not work with my stride and I am 5 feet 9 inches tall. My wife is 5 foot and 6 inches. I do not know what the stride length is for sure. Also we are selling ours because your feet do not stay stationary on it. It is a hard plastic and our feet slide around too much.

you can, but the breaks are very bad and need to be adjusted constantly which is very frustrating and impossible for someone who is disable or weak to do. I had to buy a walker from a different manufacturer and different style

I only tried it once many years ago and it was boring. You can hardly notice it change. But try it and see. Any form of movement will effect it, but it was built for machine movement I believe. Not reading the prior posts I answered the request. My model is quite old and if it has a pedestrian mode, I don't know it. Will check further, but being unable to walk any great distance, do not need the feature. Will try and find the booklet and update it in my mind.

No, You can not use it to walk in, only to mobilize your foot in order to stretch your plantar fascia. I was not able to sleep with it, to cumbersome but I did find one made by A.C.E. that works fairly well to sleep in (you can purchase at Walmart for around $25).

I doubt it would work at all without the foot pedal, I can't think of a way you would be able to wring it by hand. I will say the company is good to work with though, I immediately broke my connection when I first tried it and they sent me a replacement immediately.

You can purchase the walking foot specific for this machine through your certified Janome dealer. You can get a list of dealers in your area and on Amazon by going to Janome's website or Janome's Facebook page. The walking foot does not come included with this machine and yes it can sew through leather but you will need a heavy duty needle. This machine takes Schmetz and Organ and Janome needles. Does not take Singer or Brother needles.

It can be used were you quilt at the seams. The foot is made for top stitching near a seam. The blade can ride in the joining area of two seams. I use it as a marker for seams too. You can move your needle position and change the width of the seam. You cannot use anything but a straight stitch with it.

Thank you so much for your response!! I ended up purchasing a Sole E35 last week based on warranty and several reviews regarding long term maintenance, but I'm not sure the stride (21") will be the most comfortable. I did try out a Spirit a year or so ago, and at the time their machines were identical to Sole's; the stride on that one was ok, but I'll have to see. I really appreciate that you took the time to reply and I am so glad your machine works well for you! If the one I bought doesn't turn out I will know just what to replace it with. Your post was so helpful! Thanks again!!

I am sorry I can't tell her the correct answer as not for sure what model she has. If her machine will plug into outlet of foot pedal it will work. If I had the model I could probably give her a definite answer..

Yes, I use mine on the walking machine everyday, it has always been very accurate. I also put mine on in the morning & wear it all day.

It is best used for walking but I did jog just to see what it can do. The machine was just fine. As far as a full blown run I have no idea. I am not the running kind of gal. ; )
