I enjoy the power of the Juki TL-2010Q. My old machine struggled to sew through thick fabrics like Cordura 1000 denier and thick seams. It also does very well with 1 ounce ripstop nylon. The only hitch has been that stitches laid in reverse don't quite match those laid in forward. The thread cutter and (presser foot) knee lift saves so much time. Needle up/down responds instantly, unlike some electronic machines, which this is NOT. It has no circuit board that will burn out in a couple years. The stitches have been very consistent. I had to study the needle threader, but it does work. The thread cutter will stop working if lint gets caught up under the pressure plate--just clean when it doesn't cut. 1500 stitches per minute is more than I can handle, but most speeds below that far exceed the 800 or so claimed by household machines. AT low or high speed and every speed in between, the machine doesn't wiggle or rattle--under the plastic cover is metal and guts engineered to run smoothly. I love the table extension. I don't quilt,--it just helps to have a bit more table on my side of the presser foot as well as to the left. The only way this could be better is if I just took a 6' long slab of laminate countertop and made a hole in it to fit the machine. Also the throat is 1-2 inches more than most machines, which would really help quilters with larger quilts. Maybe I wish it had free arm capability, but given its overwhelming advantages over the average or even most expensive electronic machines, I don't miss that much. The bobbin isn't drop in, in front of the presser plate. You have to insert it into a bobbin case and push it in from the left. I just wish it held much more thread than a standard bobbin.Read full review

I've had my Juki for a year now, and I love using it. It's easy to operate and does a lovely job with the stitching! It is a solid machine that should last for the rest of my life, and I'm glad I have it! The two areas where the company could improve this fine machine are: the automatic threader - the one on my machine is finicky, so I usually hand thread my needle the bobbin - the location of the bobbin makes it a bit awkward for me to replace the thread when I am in the middle of a quilting project, and I wish the bobbin could hold twice as much thread! I would rate it 5 stars if not for these two issues. Overall, for the price I paid, I am pleased with the machine and love the way it sews!

I absolutely love this machine! However, it is really finicky on the tension, especially when trying free motion quilting. Does great on straight stitches, but with the same weight and brand thread, upper red, bobbin white, I have yet to get the tension perfected. As with all sewing machines, this Juki does not like certain threads, while others are a breeze.

Unbelievable quality machine. I cannot believe i waited so long to purchase. Worth every penny. There is no comparison when sewing on this Juki to any other brand. I have tried most. This Juki satisfies my every sewing need. If i had one thing to change. . It would be make the bobbin a top loader but the performance of the Juki makes that issue trivial. It fast and accurate. Im lovin my new Juki 2010 Q.

Was up and running in no time...easy manual instructions to fill bobbin and thread machine after it's initial oil maintenance as recommended. I recently started free-motion quilting on a 12 year old Brother machine bought at big box store, and not bad but felt it could be better. With this Juki it improved my quality of free-motion stitching by 100%. I thought I could do better and with this machine....I can and am. Love it, love it, love it...can't say enough good about it. Easy to maintain, sews smooth like a dream and heavy, durable quality. I love the features, thread cutting, needle threading, needle up and down, speed control, foot peddle, extension table. This machine his a nice big throat for fitting quilting projects. I studied many many machines for my quilting and finally decided this is the right one for me. I'm glad I was right with this choice. Excellent quality machine!!!Read full review

Love this machine, such beautiful even stitches through countless layers or just two. It was quite a surprise to find out you had upgraded to the TL-18qvp which is even better. The thread cutting is so quick and really speeds up the sewing. It is also awesome for free-motion quilting. I set the speed I want to go and use one of the special feet and go. Never quilted so evenly. Threading it is very easy, too. I had seen some people have trouble with it, but if you just look at the side, it works very well. Can't recommend this machine any higher than to say you will never be sorry sewing with it.

Beautiful quality machine. I dislike the foot pedal thread cutter. There is a thread cutter on the machine so I wish I could disable the foot pedal one. It seems to have a problem with double hemming flannel fabric. I have to use a seam jumper. It came with a 1/4 inch seam guide pressure foot but not a standard foot that all machines have and I have to fiddle a lot to start a hemmed seam. The plus side is two metal heavy duty quilting feet which I will take to a machine shop and have the circle base cut away to see the quilting line better. The thread cutter is great as well as the knee lift for the pressure foot. It seems to have a shorter than usual elevation so I have to work to get a piece under the 1/4 inch seam foot, so I'll try to find a standard one. It also takes high shank feet which is a great bonus. The speed control is great.Read full review

This machine is perfection!!! Thank you Fabric Hut !!!

I love the Juki TL-2010Q. It is a semi industrial and the best machine I've owned. It is simple, easy to use, and very strong. I will give the instruction manual an F though. I am a lifelong sewer and have owned many machines so I am not a novice. The manual is the worst I have ever seen. They need to start over and create a new one. But once you get past the instruction manual, the machine is terrific. I made a project with several layers of different types of fabric and it sewed through it all without hesitating. I wish it came the 1/4" foot. I found an after market 1/4" generic foot that works well. I feel I will enjoy this machine for many years.

I keep on having tension issues. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've adjusted the top tension and still my stitches on both sides don't look quit right. I've tried to do a search on this to see if I can fix it, but no luck so far. I even changed my needle. I'm sewing with 50wt Aurifil thread. I would love to give it a five star rating if it weren't for this one problem. I forgot to mention that I'm just piecing a quilt with high quality cotton fabrics.
