@jdenison89 , in your research did you see if this model came with a longer arm such as 18"?

I use this machine constantly and very seldom take the cover off my brother computerized machine - that's for garment sewing mainly. If ALL you are going to do is quilt - then I would seriously look at one of the SS only machines - New they are more than your allowance but sometimes you can find gently used ones on ebay for about your price range. It has the larger harp area also, needle up / down, thread cutter and makes an awesome stitch and does free motion quilting beautifully. Before I got my Pfaff HGQ I used a singer 201-2 for my quilting and still love that one also- doesn't get used as much anymore but it's still an awesome quilting machine Might be able to pick one of those at a rummage sale for way less than your wanting to spend. Cool feature I found following my link - if you subscribe and there is any sale on Amazon, they'll notify you on the e-mail about it, I found it usefulRonaldMak wrote: ↑Thu Jan 31, 2019 3:00 pm Can anyone recommend me the best product from the list mentioned in this siteyou may have quilting and upholstery mixed up. this is upholstery as in car/boat an so on, quilting uses a whole different type of machine. now i do both and i use a singer 4452 for quilting. but I wish I had a brother for quilting

The Juki 2810; its been an amazing machine and has sewn anything ive thrown at it. Multiple layers of leather with sew foam, cardboard etc. Its an absolute beast and is about $800-1000 less than the Adler depending on where you look for it. This machine IS made in china, but i have zero complaints and would highly recommend it.How are you liking the Juki 2810? have you sewn heavy thread with it? How does it handle thick assemblies? Cheers, Malcolm.

It works and does a fair job at what it does but........It will limit you to how thick of material will go under the presser foot. Also, you will be limited in your ability to pass material through the arm of the machine. This becomes important when you are sewing pleats in particular. Lastly, you will find that not only does it not sew long stitches but since it is not a needle feed machine, the stitches will get much shorter as the material thickness increases.
I go to a lot of car shows and have seen a guy selling a machine call the Mini-Brute. Does anyone know anything about it.
I am starting to work on a 37 Packard and there is going to be a bunch of sewing so I hate to make a mistake and get a machine that Cann't handle the work load.
Thanks

But was thinking of this 28107 which is similar to yours of course. Been sewing upholstery /canvas for 50 yrs now. Will never go back to non auto trimmer etc. My dealer who sold me the Juki 1510n-7 is trying to sell me the Adler 867 Classic . My Juki has all the attachments and welting feet I need to do any job A1 and they won't fit the Adler. This worries me as I have tried some feet for my machines over the years and didn't have good results. I'm leary of Adlers line and lack of it I see out there. The 2810 comes with a standard (juki/singer style) foot mounts or the european (adler). So I can use all previous feet I own if the Standard machine is ordered.
