Default Sewing Machine Advice Junki DLL8300N

Wow, thanks for the correction. I make the same mistake in alt.sewing but
corrected it before posting. I am desperate for advice that I forgot to check.

I will look around the Metro and see if I can get it service and check the
prices here too. I am from the Midwest and shipping for this machine will be
around $175 from NY.

Thanks for you suggestion and advice.

I think you mean "JUKI".

Juki makes a pretty good sewing machine. I've used them, and while I don't
like them nearly as much as Brother industrials (to be fair, they don't cost
nearly as much, either), I wouldn't turn one down if it was given to me.
What's more important is can you get service for the machine where you live?
The average commercial sewing machine head weighs in around 50 pounds, so
shipping it somewhere to have it fixed will be massively expensive.

If there is a dealer nearby who can service the machine, you might also see
what they have sitting around for sale. I picked up my Brother b550 for
$811 *new*, and it's a far better machine than anything Juki has ever
produced.

Good luck.

I posted this in alt.sewing and no one is in. Someone here could probably

advise
me if Junki DLL8300N fully assemble for $595 is worth buying.

My wife needs a reliable industrial sewing machine, we really cannot

afford a
fancy expensive machine and any advice or suggestions will be deeply
appreciated.

Thanks
