Model overview based on user reviews  
The Janome 23e sewing machine is highly praised for its excellent stitch quality and ability to handle almost any fabric quietly, provided it is periodically lubricated. Users appreciate its speed and reliability, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced sewers. However, the machine's original lighting and lack of a thread cutter were noted as drawbacks, though these can be improved with modifications like adding LED lighting and a homemade thread cutter. Additionally, purchasing a side table is recommended for enhanced convenience and reduced hand fatigue. Overall, the Janome 23e is considered a reliable workhorse with an optimal set of operations, satisfying a wide range of sewing needs.

The car is great.

I liked almost everything. The lines are excellent, it takes almost any fabric, it works quietly if periodically lubricated.
The lighting was disappointing and the lack of a thread cutter. Changed the lighting to LED, it was super. And I put a homemade thread cutter, since there is a place for it. Everything became great. For those who are interested in how I did it, there is a video on YouTube. To find it in the search engine, enter Janome 23e and it will be highlighted.

I definitely recommend it.

Reliable workhorse. I was very pleased not only with the quality of the lines, but also with the speed of this machine: it is really high. About 10 years ago I had a car of the same brand. Everything is fine, but the speed ... at most 250 stitches per minute, I just fell asleep. Now household machines are much faster, 800 stitches, which is very noticeable and cannot but rejoice, and this model with an optimal set of operations is just lovely, it will satisfy the requirements of not only a beginner, but also a master with solid experience.
Speed and stitch quality
This is not a flaw, but a wish or advice. I bought a side table for this beauty, which added convenience and speed to my work and reduced hand fatigue. I recommend everyone who sews a lot to get this accessory.
