I just bought my Juki a few months ago and love love it..... I have no idea how I lived without it. FIND IT ON SALE AND BUY IT IF YOU QUILT.
Beliieve me, i would buy if the 2010q were only available here but its not. I will buy a Pfaff instead i guess.
Just ordered my TL 2010Q a couple of hours ago so now I’m watching more videos. This one is the best! Thank you so much for the candid thorough review!
Thank you so much! We are continuing to learn how to make these videos better every time we make one. Your kind words mean so much! ~Deborah
Best video on Juki Q I have ever seen, and I have viewed many! Confirms I bought the best for my needs. Thank You.
Thank you! ~Deborah
Thank you so much for taking the time out of your life and schedule to do this very in-depth review. It helps in making a decision about buying or not buying this machine.
Glad it was helpful!
Minor corrections:
The Brother PQ series is primarily cast aluminum like the Juki, but a few of the cosmetic cover panels are plastic. The Brother PQ (and the BabyLock equivalent), Juki TL and Janome HD9 are all basically clones of each other, and really only differ in minor features and included accessories. Also you can get the Janome in black, if you're into that.
The Sailrite you mentioned, the LSZ-1, is actually a zig zag walking foot machine. You probably meant the LS-1, which is the straight stitch only version.
The walking foot attachment for this machine, like the ones for almost all domestic machines, does not actually pull the fabric from the top. Rather, this style of "walking foot" is designed with a low friction slider that moves with the fabric when the feed dogs in the machine itself do the actual advancing. The mechanism inside of the attachment just resets the slider to the middle between each stitch. The net effect is very similar to using a teflon foot, but slightly more slippery.
Technically speaking these straight stitch machines are computerized. There is a microcontroller inside that reads the pedal position and then drives the motor while monitoring the needle position, and it also takes care of operating the thread cutter. However, unlike a fully computerized machine it does not control the feed dogs and obviously there's no zig-zag mechanism for it to control.
Agreed with the needle threader. It's also one of my pet-peeves whenever it fails! Thank you for the thorough review!
Thank YOU for watching! ~Deborah
Thanks for information.
Thanks for the thorough review.
My pleasure! ~Deborah
Great video! Thank you 🧵
Glad you enjoyed it! ~Deborah
Needle threaders on many brands are finneky. I just saw a video about an improved needle threader that worked flawlessly. So, the industry is aware of threaderbissues. I have another pet peeve about my juki 2010: lighting. Needs better lighting over bed of machine and with no glare ring. Ifinally this juki is mechanical. It has buttons. Mechanical buttons vs computerized buttons. I also think many mechanical machines have the metal bobbin cases which the sewer inserts a bobbbin then inserts the filled bobbin case below the needlebed. Like the old fashioned blackhead Singers. The bobbins on mechanicals tend to be metal. Computerized machines generally have plastic drop in bobbins. I gifted a number of mechanical beginner janome machines to some of my students. I chose mechanical because the bobbin system has proven to be reliable after a century of use. You are an easy to listsen to instructor who explains using good grammar, vocabulary demonstrating excellent knowledge of the topic. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this wonderful and informative comment! I agree, lighting could be better. I don't tend to notice lighting issues as much, as my studio has an enormous amount of lighting for video recording purposes. You are correct, though, the lighting on the machine could be better. I appreciate the feedback and the thoughtful comment. Thanks for watching! ~Deborah
Good stuff. Will probably buy this soon as you make it look so easy.
You will love it! Enjoy and thanks for watching!!
Like your sheep pink fabric.
Really helpful review also showing the limitations, thank you !❤
My pleasure 😊
I have one like it love love mine
Thank you for sharing your thoughts as well as the facts and comparisons. I have been trying to justify the cost.
Yes, I had that dilemma for a while, too. After having it, I can say it is well worth the price. Thanks for watching! ~Deborah
Thank you so much, you're great 😃👍
I bought my Juki 2010Q last August. I have two Brother Machines and a Handi Quilter. I’ve had a Bernina too. I do have a Bernina serger.
I love my Juki and have heard that the Brother 1500 is the exact same machine. They came out with a new 1600 now. I sewed on a Singer 345 for years until it died.
Love this Juki straight stitch. Your straight stitches are wonderful. You won’t be sorry if you buy it.
Excellent video, Thank you. I have this machine and now have a very good idea of the finer details.Must use it more.
Glad it was helpful! ~Deborah
Muchas gracias! Ahora estoy convencida que debo comprar esta maquina. Muy útil tu información y muy bien explicada.
¡Muchas gracias y gracias por mirar! ~Deborah
Really liked you, please show video with the Grace frame quilting. Thank you and smile
Thank you and thanks for watching! Sadly, I do not have the Grace frame anymore. I do have a longarm video planned, but it will be using my HQ Sixteen machine and her frame. I appreciate the comment and will continue to get better in my explanations and my smiling. I'm learning and appreciate all the help I can get. :-) ~Deborah
I’m surprised you didn’t get any comments on this video. It’s really helpful. I jumped when you broke the needle on the denim test. I’m so glad you did that test as I stitch with a lot of denim. I love denim and am looking for a new machine.
Well, I am so glad you commented and that it helped. The denim test was fun. Good luck with your next machine!
Just purchased my Juki TL 15. I am in love with this machine...and have had great difficulty with computerized machines. I am also interested in mid-arm quilting
It is a machine that you will keep for a very long time. Have fun! ~Deborah
I love my TL-2010Q (cold, dead hands situation) and my DX-4000QVP.
One minor quibble; they are PRESSER feet, which apply pressure.
Indeed, they are. :-)
I have a Juki TL 18 QVP. It does some additional foot adjustment which I wanted. The one thing I don't like about it is that the knee lift is further to the left (v. their other machines and other brand machines). It is my only quibble. These are brute machines that get the job done with minimal ask. I don't piece with it; however, I love it for binding. Feet sets are inexpensive, and I use the edge stitch feet and the left and right compensating feet. I really like this machine for binding as well as for heavier duty sewing. (P. S. I don't bother with the auto threaders....I just thread them as I still can see!)
Yes, they are work horses for sure! ~Deborah
Oh, how I wish this machine could do a simple zigzag! Other than that, it has everything I need or want...mechanical, a knee control, a down-needle button, a larger throat, etc. But in my quilting, I attach batting to my QAYG pieces with a zigzag stitch so I don't have to mess around with batting tape. It's also great for making frankenbatting. My Janome HD-5000 is sturdy and works for me, but I do wish for just a few of those extra niceties. Since my sewing room has room for only one machine, I guess I'm stuck. But this one is so tempting! Thank you for the thorough review.
I totally agree! The only reason I have a couple of my other machines is because this one does not zig-zag. But, if you have the room, this one is worth it. Thanks for the great comment and thanks for watching!! ~Deborah
Oh, Deborah...I just visited my local Juki store, tried a 2015, and placed an order for the 2010. What a nice machine! Now I need to figure out how to rearrange my sewing room...
@@catstitchstudio Haha, where there is a will, there is a way! You are going to love it! Happy organizing... ~Deborah
You're so right! I got it yesterday, set it up, and have sewn on it for just a few minutes. I figured it how to fit it into my Arrow cabinet (the Kangaroo) so I don't even have to buy a special insert. Love, love, love it!
I enjoyed your video & now I’m able to show my husband how awesome a Juki is ♥️ & it’s definitely everything I’m looking for in a machine. But I would like to know if you have one that doesn’t interchange into or is used also for a quilting table that might be cheaper but still does everything that the 2010 machine does along with the same size throat space? Please reply! Thank you!
Thank you and, yes, do show him! There are no machines that I know of that have the deep throat space and straight stitch that are less expensive than the Juki 2010. If you are not interested in quilting, you can go with a less expensive model that does not have the deeper throat space. We are not machine dealers, so I recommend that you look around to see if there is one that will better meet your needs. I do highly recommend the Juki brand, though. My second favorite brand is Janome. Hope that helps. ~Deborah
Great video you sold me - than I need a serger and top stitch and a twin needle ?
LOL, yes, a serger would be the next in line. This machine is really a workhorse for all the straight stitching you will ever need to do. Thanks for watching!
I settles that Juki is the Cadillac of sewing machine so I go with 8715 c I wanna do leather wallets belts and bags and car hart overall I'm a construction worker Bynum trade
Great video. I like the table it sits on. Can you share a link to the?
This is a small (5') folding table that you can get here: amzn.to/4exGYeM ~Deborah
Thank you so much for the review and straight shots. My only question is, can you sew outdoor cushion covers with ease? I make costumes, wardrobes, quilts, but have a hard time with the heavy material as asked.
Yes. Be sure you use the correct needle, but it sews through thickness with ease. The deeper throat is a bonus when sewing things like cushion covers and quilts, as well. Thanks for watching! ~Deborah
Great video ❤❤❤
I do bag making and I'm looking to upgrade from my Juki DX7
Would this machine or the new Juki Sumato machine be a good choice.
I sew denim and mid weight canvas and would like to start sewing with leather, fake leathers and vinyls.
Good question! For your application, this machine would be a wonderful upgrade to the DX7. I had that machine and it really was a gread machine for all purpose sewing. The housing on the DX7 is plastic and the 2010Q is metal. If you can keep the DX7 for those times when you need to do zig-zag, or buttonholes, I might keep it. For me, I sold my DX7 and went with a much cheaper Janome for those stitches that I need on occasion. The only thing I really miss about the DX7 is the auto buttonhole feature. That was a dream.
The 2010Q will sew all the materials you mentioned and more. I have never used a Sumato, but it looks to me like it is an updated version of the 2010Q. I cannot speak to it's durability, but since it is a Juki, it should be fabulous, too.
Hope that helps!
~Deborah
Thanks for this video, and it was a great thorough review :) I just got this machine, it's still in the box... I like the Teflon foot suggestion, since you can't move the needle in other positions, can you get one that's a 1/4" foot? The one that you show that comes with the machine, has the piece of metal as the guide, I don't care for that kind, I'd rather use the edge of the foot to sew the 1/4". I notice that you do use the diagonal seam tape to mark the 1/4", I'm assuming that's what you do to piece for quilting. I jumped around the video a bit, so I apologize if you covered that and I missed it.
The teflon foot (see the video description for the link) is ¼" at the edge, so I use that for everything quilting related that requires that seam allowance. I use the diagonal seam tape (link also in the description) for doing flying geese and those types of things that require sewing from point to point. I use the red line in the middle more than the black ¼" line on the sides. Hope that helps and thanks for watching! ~Deborah
@@piecesofthepast thanks so much for your quick reply about the foot, I finally got my machine out of the box, the new machines don't come with the 1/4" foot, so I'm happy to see the Teflon foot is 1/4". I've referred back to the video several times to find where you show threading, etc. If I remember correctly, you had mentioned maintaining your machine & even opening. Could you possibly do a video on cleaning & oiling your machine / show how to open it up & clean?? That would be awesome! Thanks again...
My manual says to thread through two holes of the three at the top. Do three for more tension.
Good to know!
I really enjoyed the video! 😀 If I may ask 3 quick questions: I'll need a machine only for topstitches(?) it's a decorative seam which will also close the opening after turning. Is it hard/easy to do the lockstitches? My "normal" machine does it automatically and I've never done it myself and they'll need to look good bc it's on the top. Can I do a color change like with overlock machines, so knoting one thread to the next one? I have to do a lot of color changes and threading the machine each time would become tedious I think. And at last: I often have to shorten the last stitch before a corner but sometimes I only see it when I've gone to far, so can you go "one stitch back"? Thank you in advance!
Great questions! Lockstitches are done with the lever on the bottom right of the machine and are very easy to accomplish. Color changes can be done by knotting one thread to the next one, provided the eye of the needle you are using is large enough. I would not really recommend it, as the eye would need to be considerably larger and then it would probably not be the correct size for the thread you were using. I am not sure. You would have to try that out on your own. I manually change my thread multiple times a day, sometimes, and it is a really simple process for me.
Finally, backing out of a stitch can be done, but if you have gone that extra stitch and the needle has come back to the up position, then the stitch is made and there is no backing out of it at that point. I hope that makes sense.
Overall, I love this machine for top/edge stitching, but the things you mention seem like they could be better accomplished with different machines. I would recommend that you find a dealer, if possible, and test drive this machine to see if it will do what you want it to do.
Thanks for watching and for the questions! ~Deborah
Brother makes the TL 1500 for $700 Amazon. It is said to be the same machine as the Juki
What is the large screw thing that you pushed to change needle, is that available to purchase. I have the 2000Qi
Hi Mary, The push button thing is to quick change the presser foot. There is a link for this item in the video description. If you are planning on using the push button thing on a different machine, be sure it is a high shank machine. This push button gadget will only work on high shank machines. ~Deborah
Can you quilt freehand on the Juki without a regulator?
Can you use the acrylic stitching guides I see quilters use?
I would live to buy this machine..don't know if it ever goes on sale or not
Thanks for filming this, it was so helpful.
Yes, you can quilt without a regulator. The regulator helps keep the stitches even. Stitching without one takes a lot of practice. Go slow and steady and you can do it. You can definitely use the acrylic rulers for quilting. A word of caution: Don't buy rotary rulers thinking they are the same thing. Rulers made for quilting as a guide are ¼" thick (or more), rulers made for rotary cutting are ⅛" thick. If you try to use a rotary ruler, you risk running over the ruler and breaking the ruler, needle, or the machine timing. I have not ever seen this machine on a sale. I can say it is a good machine for the MSRP. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!! ~Deborah
Hello! Does your Juki 2010q sewing machines can handle or use any spool or cones thread about 25wt, 28wt, 30wt and 35wt , 40 wt? Straight stitches? Let me know please and thank you so much!
Thanks for the questions. Yes, this machine will handle all those weights of thread, and more. Be sure to use the appropriate needle size for the thread you are using. This machine only does straight stitches. Thanks for watching! ~Deborah
Hi! Nice review! Can you help? I want semi indistrial or industrial machine, but im a beginner kind of with big ambiotions and intentions to make backpack, bags, pouches from different material like linen, cotton, vynil, nailon, polyester mostly and with different filling. I tried it in the shop a bit, and i liked it. But perfect would be some unison walking foot. But i dont have money yet 2500€ to buy amth like industrial juki or even a place for such a noisy machine. What you would recomend me?
This machine would be an excellent machine to start with. After this machine, if you really want to go to an industrial, I would recommend the Juki-1181N as an industrial for you. I love mine!
@@piecesofthepast i tried both and choose tl2010 as starter. Later will add du1181n. Liked it. But later.
What about oiling the machine??? I heard you have to oil often?
Great question! I do my own maintenance on my mechanical machines, so I can tell you that if you follow the manual, and clean and oil regularly, you should not have any issues. The oiling is super easy and I do it every time I clean my machine (about once a month), but I sew heavily every day. The machine has little holes in the casing where you just drop in a couple of drops from time to time. The manual is good at showing you where those are. Thanks! ~Deborah
2:02 onde eu compro aqui pelo Brasil?
The spool threads are different. One for small hole thread one for larger hole, cone thread.
The spool pins on the machine I have, in the video, are the exact same size. :-)
Where did you get the boards and stylist to do designs with? Thank you .
I am not sure what you stylist you are referring to, but the boards (I think you mean the design boards) you can make for yourself by following this live video of mine: ruclips.net/user/livesPhdLIpQO9U ~Deborah
Thanks for your info for Juki TL2010Q. I'm ready to purchase it through the link you gave on Amazon, but it says the machine weights 1 lb only. That can't be right? Please verify the correct machine/link to purchase as some of the Juki TL2010Q are sold by a few different sellers and with different weight variations , METAL or ALUMINUM, and they don't give any detail as to what accessories included. Help ;)
This is the link to the exact machine I purchased: amzn.to/3WhbOSc The link is correct, the weight on the item is not correct on the listing. I never noticed that. Interesting! Thanks for watching and for using my links. It really helps. ~Deborah
@@piecesofthepast Thank you so much. I really appreciate your speedy reply and help. Going to click - PURCHASE! lol
You will love it! Enjoy! ~Deborah
HiLuv, I have a question. From your experience with this model, would it be good for sewing on paper/light cardboard? In other words for bookbinding? Any thoughts would help. Thanks so much
Interesting question. I believe it would be great for that application. The foot lifts higher than a domestic machine, so you can get thicker things under the needle easier. And, it sews through many layers of denim, so with the right needle for your application, I think it would work really well for that process. ~Deborah
@@piecesofthepast Thank you so much
What about vinyl and cork ? I sew on vinyl a lot, threw 4-5 layers on my OLD Singer500. Can this Juki do that? Thank you
Absolutely! When I sew on clear vinyl I usually tape a piece of paper to the bed of the machine to keep the vinyl from "sticking" to the machine. The machine itself can handle vinyl and cork beautifully. Thanks for watching and for asking! ~Deborah
@@piecesofthepast thank you and for the suggestion to use paper on the bed of the machine. I am going to a Sew Sewcial this Saturday, I signed up for this Juki to give it a good test . Our local sewing machine store carries this machine so I will be able to purchase locally unless he has the price to high. It was a good and informative video
juki TL 2000qi vs breather pq 1500SL vs juki 18 which is better for using free moton and perfect stitching
Well, I have never owned the Brother 1500SL, so I cannot speak to that one, but the Juki's are virtually identical. For the difference in price, I would get the TL 2010.
@@piecesofthepastThanks for your nice response. I understand that you are really very talented in this subject, please give me some advice
I don't need a sewing machine design. I will sew vine leaf flowers and round designs using quilting free mutton.
So for me should buy any sewing machine at low price
If you are quilting with a regulator (highly recommended when doing free motion), you need to make sure the machine you are buying will work with the regulator. If you are not using a regulator, a lower priced machine would be more of a consideration. A regulator is a unit you attach to the machine that keeps your stitches looking even. When you move faster, the machine sews faster and when you move slower it stitches slower. Here is what they look like: graceframe.com/en/product/surestitch-elite-stitch-regulator
Lots of utube quilter’s use it.
Maybe was wrong tension on foot while needle broke or wrong needle? Because i saw people sewing more fabric in it.
If you are referring to the needle that broke on the denim, you are correct. I was using a standard needle, not a needle meant for denim. Can you believe it still stitched through that many layers with just a standard needle. Nice!
You can buy needle threader replacements for $10. They just snap in/off
Mine did not come with a walking foot or a quarter foot.
That is interesting. I guess it has to do with the seller. I have never seen this machine without those included. Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy your machine. ~Deborah
What is the industrial one?
Cindy, not sure what you mean. If you are referring to my industrial machine, it is a Juki DU-1181N. She is a beast and stitches through leather and denim like butter. I will do a review on her someday. Thanks for watching!!
I am looking at getting an industrial one. What would you recommend?
@@cindybundrick3469 I would totally go with the Juki DU-1181N. Especially if you are wanting to make bags or work with leather.
