Can you do a feature comparison between those two machines? I read somewhere that the Viking has a needle adjustment option but don't quote me on that. Other than that, I believe the machines are practically the same. Juki is known for their industrial machines and the reviews are good. Not sure about warranty.

If I am remembering correctly the 2 machines are very similar...same size throat, etc.
I have the Juki, and I love the speed and everything about it.
Check and see how many yards go onto the bobbin on each machine. That would help me make a decision.

I don't know anything about the Viking, but I am not giving up my Juki for anything! I want to get a long arm, but when I do, the Juki stays for piecing. I LOVE everything about this machine.
I use it on a frame, but I can't imagine using a Qbot with it. With only a 9" throat, by the end of the quilt you end up with between 4-5 inches to quilt in. Not alot.
That said, if I could find a long long arm Juki, I would buy it. As long as you remember the magic words "Juki Loves Oil" everything is great.
