Western Wilson
so far I love the machine. It is fast and smooth. Sounds good when running. The thread cutter cuts off fast! (Mr other machine when it cuts thread it sounds like it going through a 5 step process!). The threader is a very small learning curve.
I went in for the model one down but they showed me this one with the float foot knob. It has been sewing through many layers. Granted all I am doing now is using some precut flannel and making a rag quilt. (Trying to clean up old stuff!) but it is going through 5 layers with no issues whatsoever!
And the Juki junkies site will be invaluable!
