Yes. I have an older Elna and I love it. I’m surprised you’re saying it wouldn’t get a lot of use. It’s exactly what I want for piecing and sewing. I find all the decorative stitches and embroidery cumbersome. 🤷🏼♀️
I have had my TL 2200QVP Mini for about four years and it’s the only machine I use for 99% of my sewing. I’ve had my Juki MO-103 serger for forty (40) years and I knew I needed a Juki straight stitch because it’s such a workhorse!
I HAD 1 straight stitch machine. A Brother Nouvelle 1500S. It was on my Grace quilting frame. I bought them together used. I am desperately working on quilts for Christmas gifts. And several days ago.... it slowly started sewing slower and slower until it just stopped. And froze up! Wow! What timing! My husband has purchased me a Juki TL-2010Q for my Christmas gift...& birthday...& Mother’s Day...and any other gift that might be coming up. It is arriving tomorrow!!!
I have a TL2010 since 2019 and it is my favorite machine hands down. It’s sews smooth stitches consistently, it’s fast, it’s strong, and I love the thread cutter on the heel control of the foot pedal love love that!
I have the DNU - 1541 as well. I use it seldom. Mostly to mend my nephew snowboard pants, my husband’s belt loops on his jeans, I know it deserves more than that. It is a very strong and nice machine.
Hi. Just watched this review. I love your reviews. So honest. Just wanted to let you know, in Canada, the cost of the new TL 2020 pe is more than double that of the 18QVP! I purchased the 18qvp in July 2019 for approximately $1600 CAD. The new 2020 pe is over $3500 CAD
I went with this one over the 2010 because it comes with many extra accessories/feet for quilting and it’s unique. And didn’t need the extra feature of the TL 18.
I have a Juki TL-2200QVP mini and Juki J-150QVP which I use the most because I like the speed and I use it for all my FMQ. Not only is it difficult to get feet/accessories they are very expensive.
I have the TL18QVP! I love it! My favourite feature is the micro lift for sewing over multiple and thick layers. I was able to sew a sample using 8 layers of soft leather with no problem. I won’t be getting the 2020PE for the reasons you mentioned.
Very honest video. Thank you. Brother and Baby Lock make the straight sewing machine, too, right? Although, they (Brother and Baby Lock) look the same, which one is better?
Juki - hands down best machine ever - I own the 2010Q. I was hoping this video was on Juki that is not straight stitch because that is my next purchase :-)
I loved your honest video. I have the juki pq1500sl. The juki 2020 looks like mine but is the 2020 a stronger machine? Like is it considered industrial?
Both are great options. It depends on what is a better fit for you. You really won't go wrong either way. If you can find a place to go sew on one. Straight stitch machines are really something else.
I still haven't decided it as of yet!!!!! I sew Upholstery & Car Seats Covers & People want 2 change there car seat Material!!!!! I just need 1, 2 sew thru thick materials without getting jammed!!!!! I sew leathers, & very thick Upholstery Material!!!!! Will this machine give me no problems, with sewing thru this thick materials!!!!
Biggest difference is the brother can raise the feed dog height to 4 varying heights. Juki has scissor trim activation on the foot pedal. I’d find the juki foot pedal more useful personally but both are great and depends on personal use as to which features would benefit the individual more.
The machine is cast iron with a platinum colored coating, not really platinum. ☺️ The Kirei can do the same things though it’s not built for it in the same way. It’s got some pretty sweet convenience features like programming the foot to raise after using the thread cutting and such. And it has a better walking foot system (different and I’d say preferable at least). The biggest gain is 12in of throat space (4more inches makes a HUGE difference free motion quilting). They are really quite different machines and hard to compare one to another. I’d personally still want another machine to the 2020 for my piecing, edge finishing, sleeves (free arm) and such. Then I’d be using it for my borders, binding, top stitching, duffles and bags etc. The Janome 6700 or M7 are the only machine I know that combine both the features of the kirei and the 2020. I hope this helps!
I think it's plastic, I don't remember exactly but its really sturdy. I wouldn't be concerned about it. I've certainly seen cheep extention tables and this is not that.
Very, the primary difference is the 6650 is only available online (meaning no local support) and is red as opposed to silver, then it’s just a few feet that aren’t included. Combined these things save you about $1000. So if you’re a confident sewer and don’t suspect you’ll need the wisdom, training and services of your local dealer it can be a really great option! But for a lot of people upgrading to computerized tech in sewing machines is a daunting idea and that local support can and is their lifeline so the 6700 is their preferred choice.
@@KatchiVatchi I have been looking! Looks like the 6650 isn't able to use the AcuFeed! Closes Janome dealer to me is almost 100 miles away! And found the 6700 online for $1733, may end up going with it instead
That’s hard to say, I had a couple customers who were really into bag making and did bring the machine in a few times to get help with it. Most of the time it was user ignorance as opposed to user error, there are some tricks to getting your machine to sew through super bulky seams and such that can help with just about any machine, not just this one. I also had bag makers with the juki tl-18 who never once brought their machines in and only ever praised them. It would kind of depend on the versatility you want from a machine. I would say it’s good for bag making however it would maybe require a bit more finesse than a similar straight stitch machine.

Do you have a straight stitch sewing machine? If so what kind?
Yes. I have an older Elna and I love it. I’m surprised you’re saying it wouldn’t get a lot of use. It’s exactly what I want for piecing and sewing. I find all the decorative stitches and embroidery cumbersome. 🤷🏼♀️
I have a Janome HD9 and love it. I have a computerized Juki and love that one too :-)
I use a 1928 Singer 66 as my quilter with my frame. No bells. No whistles but a good stitch with great harp space.

I’m have a singer 15-125 potted Motor but I don’t use it had to find accessories I was wondering if the juki or hd9 faster than the old singer

Yay! That is so exciting!
Congratulations! How do you like it? Hi love, love mine! It is hands-down my favorite machine
I have the Juki TL 2010, which I bought in 2017, and it is still running smoothly😀 I used it for quilting and heavy duty projects.
I’ll try not to be jealous, they really are such delightful machines!

I bought this platinum in late Jan ‘21. So far, I love it! It’s so pretty too! 💕
That's awesome!
I have a DNU -1541S. I love it. Mostly use it on leather.

I’m pretty sure I audibly gasped reading that. Double! That’s insane.

I just received mine today after going back and forth for a long while…. so excited to get it going!! :-)
I have a Juki TL-2200QVP mini and Juki J-150QVP which I use the most because I like the speed and I use it for all my FMQ. Not only is it difficult to get feet/accessories they are very expensive.
I totally agree!
I don't have a straight stitch machine. Maybe someday. I just bought the Juki HZL-DX7 and really love it! Thanks for your review!
Nice! You're so welcome. 😀👍

What fun! Thanks for the comment!
Special edition machines can work. Bernina did well with the Tula Pink edition of the 570 and 770, and there are a couple of other editions as well.
I loved your honest video. I have the juki pq1500sl. The juki 2020 looks like mine but is the 2020 a stronger machine? Like is it considered industrial?
I haven't decided on this 1, I was looking @ The Sailrite Industrial 1, tht 1 that U can carry with U!!!!!!! Im still deciding!!!!!
Both are great options. It depends on what is a better fit for you. You really won't go wrong either way. If you can find a place to go sew on one. Straight stitch machines are really something else.
I still haven't decided it as of yet!!!!! I sew Upholstery & Car Seats Covers & People want 2 change there car seat Material!!!!! I just need 1, 2 sew thru thick materials without getting jammed!!!!! I sew leathers, & very thick Upholstery Material!!!!! Will this machine give me no problems, with sewing thru this thick materials!!!!
Well, it should handle it okay. But if you are doing mainly leather work I'd probably get the sailrite.
Id also seriously look at their extra motors.
Thanks for the information. I am your 200ah like hahaha peace and love luv Rolfie
I have a brother dz1500 but the tension has been wonky and can’t get it right so just ordered a tl 2000
Tension can be a beast, I hope you’re loving your new machine!
How much does it weigh?
Great video. Could you compare Juki TL-18QVP and Brother PQ 1500 SL? Any pros?cons?
Thank you :)
We will see what we can do!
Biggest difference is the brother can raise the feed dog height to 4 varying heights. Juki has scissor trim activation on the foot pedal. I’d find the juki foot pedal more useful personally but both are great and depends on personal use as to which features would benefit the individual more.
Love your insight!!! Is this just a coating or is it actually metal somehow? Can the Juki Kirei do all the same things?
The machine is cast iron with a platinum colored coating, not really platinum. ☺️
The Kirei can do the same things though it’s not built for it in the same way. It’s got some pretty sweet convenience features like programming the foot to raise after using the thread cutting and such.

@@KatchiVatchi Cast Aluminum, not iron. But gorgeous!
How about the tray table, is it metal or plastic?
I think it's plastic, I don't remember exactly but its really sturdy. I wouldn't be concerned about it. I've certainly seen cheep extention tables and this is not that.
You mentioned the 6700 Janome is the 6650 comparable

@@KatchiVatchi do you know if this machine would be good for bag making?! I do other thing, but I'm getting into bag making!
That sounds like a great deal! And that’s great sleuthing too, the AcuFeed is a wonderful feature especially for bulk and quilting.
That’s hard to say, I had a couple customers who were really into bag making and did bring the machine in a few times to get help with it. Most of the time it was user ignorance as opposed to user error, there are some tricks to getting your machine to sew through super bulky seams and such that can help with just about any machine, not just this one.

A whole video without the machine?
It literally wasn’t even in stores yet when the video was made
What is up with the closed captioning on this? :D
I didn't even know we even had CC....um idk! LOL
All of that talking and she doesn't actually have the machine on hand...hmppff.
