Janome HD 3000 BE Black Edition with Exclusive Bonus Bundle

Great sewing machine. Very easy to use.

So far so good, To test it I tried sewing 14 layers of Jean material no problem, now Im reupholstering my 1980 El Camino sews though the vinyl and foam also no problem. Im satisfied with this sewing machine, does what says it can do.

This machine is for sure heavy duty! I am impressed with the consistent stitch. My company Janeyandnell.com makes handmade handbags. I consistently switch from cloth to leather stitching in one project. This machine will not skip a stitch or loose the stitch quality sewing from thin material to 4 layers of soft leather! I keep my thread tension slightly above 4 for consistent tight stitch. I also use universal thread for continued use with all materials. I do not need a thicker thread for leather because of the machine quality. The value for this machine is amazing! Lots of extra feet and gadgets to sew all your products or hobbies. I have a Juki for additional stitching and embroidery. Honestly use this machine more for the quality of a consistent stitch. I also rarely have to change needles. I Have used the same universal needle that came with the machine for multiple projects and thickness of material. I highly recommend this machine for all cloth and leather/purse quality projects. It is a work horse for sure!

Im very happy with this purchase. Its a very sturdy machine and I feel confident it will last a long time. My old, lower-quality machine was throwing fits when I sewed cloth masks (sometimes 10 layers on the edges). This beauty powers through with no fuss. It does take a minute to get used to manually rolling the needle up if youre used to a digital machine. My only complaint is that its a little hard to control the speed. She really wants to zoom through straight lines, but I have a little trouble getting her to slow down for careful curves.

Cheap

Love my Janome HD3000 - Used to make leather purses. Wish I could use on thicker leather - I have to shave the edges before sewing. But I still love the machine!!!!

Im very happy with my machine, but not so easy to adjust the stitch settings

This machine doesnt work at all. Save your money, and dont waste your time having to return this piece of garbage.

The sewing machine came earlier than expected with all required parts and accessories. Easily threaded and sewing in minutes.

Although I love my new Janome sewing machine, I cannot help but notice the quality of the machine itself. Everything up top is plastic and a very thin plastic at that. Does not want to close as tightly as my old Kenmore which truly was a work horse and was built like a truck. I hope that this machine lasts as long as my Kenmore which is over 22 years old and still working. The major reason for my purchase was that this touted heavy duty and I have to admit my older machine did not like doing heavy denim or thick layers. This machine has the basic stitches which I find I use 95% of the time, did not need anything with hundreds of stitches as I never use them.
