Juki TL-2000Qi Long Arm, Grace 8ft Continuum II Quilting Frame & Speed Control Review

The perfect machine for me.

I wanted a sturdy, mechanical machine with a large work space. Imagine how delighted I am at the extra convenient features of the presser foot knee lever and the automatic thread cutter. No more pulling the threads back and holding them in place to prevent a thread jam. I love my machine!!

Awesome machine!!

I hesitated to buy this machine since it only does straight stiching, but I am SO GLAD I purchased it!!! It is super fast (definitely need to practice to be able to quilt faster), quiet, and is a dream to quilt with. I have not used a frame before, but again (with a little more practice) I can tell it will be great to quilt larger quilts with. It would be nice if there had been… read more a person to assemble the frame in the box bc it is quite parts and installation intensive. After a week of an hour here and there it was up and ready to go. I had a small hiccup with my initial order, but the staff at Sewingmachinesplus.com were very helpful and I would purchase from them again!!!

Great single stitch machine!!

I have had my juki tl 2000qi for around a month now and have fmq'd a very large king size quilt on it. The only quirk I have with it right now is how deep into the machine your hand must go to remove/ replace the bobbin (I am a woman with unnaturally lg hands though) and I was REALLY disappointed with the hardware. The bobbin tension screwdriver is very cheap, rough edged, and the… read more shank is too large to fit into the screw notch, but the cheapie Singer tool set bought at big box store is a perfect fix for this :). Although there is a "newer" model (2010) with a sub-tension unit and speed control, in my opinion, this is the better of the deal because either way you will have to learn how to deal with the speed of your machine and suitable tensions with different threads. I did get my machine super-quick !! Bought it late Tuesday night and ups dropped it off early Thursday morning :) trouble with my gift card promo and I called 5 times... No one knew really how to fix or help me until I got Dina (hope I spelled right) on the line, she was great, didn't get off the phone with me until she received my online order. Thanks so much Dina!! Overall this is a great machine and alt. to a costly Janome or Bernina but be forewarned a serviceman may require a lil trip if you live rural.

Juki TL2010

This long arm quilting machine is fantastic. I have quilted 2 quilts since I received it. The features are wonderful. I did not realize that quilting could be as much fun as I have been having.

Love This Machine!

I love, love, love this machine!! I purchased this machine around the end of 2010. It is still going strong! I love the speed and control of this machine. And the foot control with the thread cutter is fabulous! I can go from one piece of fabric to the next without ever having to touch my thread snippers! The knee lifter is another feature I couldn't live without, as well as the… read more needle up/needle down feature. I sew my own clothing and this machine's speed helps me accomplish so much more in a short amount of time. It's easy to oil and thread, although I cannot figure out the auto-threader. For years I wanted an industrial machine because of the speed, but didn't want the motor noise they produce and didn't know if anyone could carry it upstairs to my sewing room. Then there was maintenance issue; who would come to my house if I had a problem with it? This machine can easily go to the repair shop if needed. But I've never had a problem with it. It arrived packed nicely in the box. I like the large table that came with it as well. The machine is very well made and sews beautifully. I have two other Swiss machines (beginning with "B") and they don't compare to the strength of my Juki - and they cost much, much more. In fact, the computerized one is packed away in the closet. This is a fantastic machine at a very good price.

Love this Machine

Although it is only a straight stitch machine, it works great. I am using it on my homemade quilting frame, and wow, it really has speed. I love the option of the speed control as well. I am using it now as my main machine, other one is in the shop getting looked at. I sew every day, so my machines have to be in top condition. I am so glad I bought the Juki. It is a work horse… read more machine.

Couldn't be happiet

Although I don't quilt, I exclusively work on wedding gowns and the large table is a dream. Having the ability to adapt to different fabrics with the dial- who could ask for anything more? At high speeds, it doesn't even quiver. I love having my industrial style knee lift and kudos to the thread cutter. Now, if we can just add the continous bobbin winder on the side......

Perfect straight stitch

As an avid quilter, I thought I wanted a computerized machine with all the bells and whistles... but I realized that what I actually USE is the straight stitch. I bought this machine both for piecing and quilting on a Little Gracie frame and couldn't be happier. Sews like a dream; great speed and perfect stitches and tension. Just thrilled. Appears to be the workhorse I need.… read more Love it. Especially the foot pedal thread trimmer.

Love my Juki!!

This machine is great! It is a real workhorse that quietly hums when sewing. I was very impressed with the quality of the machine--its a heavy metal machine, not plastic like so many machines today. I'm using it on a Grace GQ frame. It sews great and, as an added bonus, is very pretty (in my opinion). I love it!!

Dream Machine

I have been sewing most of my life and have used all sorts of machines/brands. This machine has been a dream. It is quick, smooth, easy. I initially purchased it for free motion quilting and am finding that I'm using it for most of my sewing. By the way, the dealer was wonderful to work with.

Best Home Machine On the Market

I grew up using my mother's industrial machine and can honestly say I love this machine just as much. This Juki TL2000QI is a workhorse, all the parts are metal and I can also use my industrial feet, thread, etc etc, etc. Best of all, it's portable and small, compared to a normal industrial machine it's great for tiny studio apartments (with no elevators, like mine). I highly recommend… read more this machine.

Professional Quality

This machine is absolutely perfect! If you are looking for a perfect straight stitch all of the time- say hello to your new machine. I have had this machine for about 5 months now and it is awesome! On top of that it sews at a higher speed than most, which was another quality that I needed. I am constantly sewing and this machine saves me a lot of time!

GREAT INVESTMENT

This frame has everything and with it being a package deal, machine, speed control (WHICH IS AWESOME) etc. It is a great investment.I love the fourth rail to hold my quilt batting, what a difference. The jukI machine works really well and the templates are a great addition to this frame... wonerful and for the money you can't go wrong.

I'm very pleased with the Juki except for the spool holders.

So far I love everything about it except the spool holders. Not tall enough for the tall spools of thread that I've purchased...only for regular sewing spools and cone spools. I have mostly the tall spools and am trying to find a way to keep them on the spool holder.

Don't buy from this company!

I had a hard time getting the machine to stitch right. Called for help and never had my call returned. Not a good company. Machine could be alright but bad company.

Juki #1 manufacturer

Super fast shipping, great customer service. Love this machine, I wish I would have bought one sooner. It sews so smooth. I never knew Juki was the #1 manufacturer in the world. Spending a bit more money on a good sewing machine is worth every penny.

Juki TL 2000Qi

I have been wanting a long-arm quilting machine for a few years, I started doing my research and the Juki kept coming up as one of the top machines. My husband ordered this one for me as an early Christmas present because of the sale price and the bonus package. The bobbins are on backorder, but everything else arrived just as described.

Finally, I didn't have to tens of thousands to get a great long arm!

Super happy to have this machine! The frame took 2/3 people to set up. That was the hardest part. Now I'm just practicing away! Juki machine seems really sturdy and well made. The frame is not jiggling or moving around - just very big - but that's a good thing!

AMAZING!!

I had trouble in the beginning when I first got my machine. It turns out it wasn't the machine, it was operator error!! Best money I ever spent for a sewing machine! I love the TL2000iQ!

Excellent Choice!

Beautiful machine. My first quilt with this machine came out perfect. The stitches are amazing and it is so fast. This was a big purchase for me so I did my research and thought about my options for a long time before I bought the machine. The reviews I read about this machine were extremely helpful in making my decision.

Very Happy with my purchase:

I just finished my first quilt and was very pleased with the results. I chose to do a "tetris" style pattern without pantograph or any other stitching type aid and it came out beautifully. I did break a couple needles but only because, in my excitement, I forgot to put the foot down! I made my own leader cloths which worked just fine.The Juki performed beautifully, the carriage… read more made the movement effortless, the rollers were very easy to adjust, I found "my" speed and was able to keep the stitches pretty uniform (I'm not looking for perfect, I want my quilts to be used till they are tatters -making memories all way). All in all this was a very satisfying experience and I look forward to years of sewing my own quilts.

New at sewing on a frame but really liking this setup.

I'm new at sewing on a frame so I'm still practicing but so far I love it. I have two quilt tops ( twin and queen size ) that I put together years ago but never finished. I'm really excited about finishing them both and then starting on my huge pile of quilting fabric. The Gracie frame and Juki machine have opened up a whole new avenue for my sewing and I'm really enjoying it.
