Great Machine

By: janet on 2 March 2024
Love love Love my Halo. I did have a Janome single needle machine and even though is was a great machine I wasn't happy having to change colour thread all the time. I watched all the videos of the Halo machine and after watching how easy it was to use I knew I had to have it so I bought it. So happy I did. Also the support at Echidna Sewing is second to none. So if your thinking about getting a multi-needle machine just do it, buy the Halo! You will not regret it!

Halo 100 Embroidery Machine

By: Michelle on 20 September 2022
Can’t say enough about how wonderful this machine is. Up until recently I had 2, 6 needle machines. They were more of a home use machine. The Halo is a bit more of a commercial machine. After I had gotten used to the differences of the 2 different types of machines, I would totally recommend the Halo 100. It’s an extremely solid machine and sews very smoothly with beautiful results. It comes with 2 sets of 3 circular hoops and one very large rectangular hoop, a very solid stand. and a tool box. Very happy with this machine. Echidna also has fantastic technical support and have been very helpful. Thinking of purchasing another. Also great value for money!
