Great Industrial Sewing Machine! The choice was between JUKI and CONSEW! After doing extensive research, JUKI was the machine I chose. The CONSEW is also a great machine but cost a little more. I was looking into a used industrial heavy duty machine but all of them were pick up at location only. Probably spending $200-$300 for gas because the used machines are either on the West or East coast, plus the time traveling. I found this site, brand new, FREE Delivery for a JUKI DDL 8700H, Table, Servo Motor, Thread Holder, intense light etc... H stands for Heavy Duty. If I have to complain about anything, it is probably the assembly. No Instructions but that is alright. Go to You Tube and they have a complete video on how to assemble and work your JUKI. Overall, a great buy, Free Delivery and a sound quality Machine! Thank you very much!Read full review

was waffling between this machine and a Consew. Have never used either but wanted something which could replace my clothing machine and still manage the occasional heavy upholstery/leather repair job. LOVE LOVE LOVE this machine. Feels super solid. I loved my old Pfaff metal machine, could talk it into going through leather leashes, etc. but this is in a super duper class. Repaired 2 belts and a bridle the first day it was running. Zero problem. Guess the biggest issue is learning to be careful with the speed control because this baby will stitch! Table came in pieces but wasn't bad to put together, all holes drilled, everything in the boxes, all fit together. Husband and son fixed the adjustments to suit my short height and seat comfort. Really happy with the purchase.

The Juki 8700 series is the standard for a light weight, non-walking foot industrial. For applications where you need to get into tight spaces for precision work, this machine rocks out. Although a good walking foot machine is practically the go-to industry standard, there are times and places a good non-walking foot is required. For this kind of work, this Juki is the bomb. The 8700H is perfect for heavier nylon, and even leather work before the walking foot is required. So that's a perfect niche for it. With a larger needle size and presser foot height, you can handle these heavier, thicker build-ups with ease. Machines like these were over 1200 bucks not long ago. So for those of us not doing high volume work, with computer controlled machines, they are now a freaking bargain. And machines like this will out last you and me put together. I have re-frub'd industrials from the rag trade that still run, well, like sewing machines. The parts are inexpensive and plentiful so keeping it running is pretty easy. You could do a high-speed crash and bend a shaft, order new parts, and be back in business inside a week.Read full review

Pros: It's a wonderful machine It is fast. It is quiet. It will sew through just about any fabric. The Cons: It does not have a need down button. You have to move the wheel manually. It does not have a needle threader. It only does the lock stitch. I did buy it for bag making. It will handle anything I put under it including my finger. It's totally worth the money and I will "never" go back to a domestic.

The sewing machine was delivered as promised on time. All parts were included, and the machine works well. I watched the YouTube instruction for assembly. Assembly was accomplished in approximately two hours as this was the first time I had assembled a sewing table and placed the 8700 in place. I think I could accomplish the same feet again in probably around an hour when I do my second unit.
