Juki HZL-LB5100 Computerized Sewing Machine

My Juki HZL-LB5100 arrived yesterday, exactly as promised by my FAVORITE SELLER SEW VAC DIRECT!! 1. I LOVE this seller, they take care of their customers and they stand by every machine they sell. They are located 3 hours from me, and worth every minute of the drive should I need help with a machine. Never hesitate to by from SewVacDirect, they Know what they are doing. Now, this machine is another Juki triumph. I own a Juki HZL-F600, also purchased at SewVacDirect. I have sewn on Juki machines in sewing factories and love the heft and solid feel of sewing with Juki's. I have owned Brother machines and Janome machines, Viking and Bernina that I enjoyed but they cannot hold a candle to a Juki. The LB5100 is a powerhouse. The stitch quality is Perfection in every seam. I unpacked it, set it up, and sewed on my new Juki all afternoon yesterday, well into the evening. Filling the bobbin, as smooth and cleanly filled bobbin as I could expect. I do tell everyone I teach when sewing, SLOW DOWN when you're filling the bobbin, and you will get a smooth tighter bobbin than running a machine full speed. Juki machines do the best and cleanest bobbin of all the machines I've tried. The LB5100 is quiet, sturdy, absolutely NO vibration as Juki machines are solid. I like that Juki machines are quite intuitive and easy to operate. I adore my Juki F-600 and I am adoring my LB5100 as well. There are some sewing projects where I like to do an "assembly line" like set up, one machine for straight sewing, one set up to make buttonholes and maybe add some embroidery with the embroidery machine I have. I look forward to years and years sewing with this Juki. Thanks, SewVacDirect and Amazon You Guys Rock!

Oh my lanta, this machine is like none other. It's so quiet you could sew in the room with your sleeping husband and he might not even get grumpy. It's like a gentle white noise. It seems like it could sew through just about any material. The stitches are incredible and efficient. Light weight, portable, well engineered... I dont think I could have bought a better sewing machine for the price. I've only gotten to play with it a little, but it really sews like a dream. I'm going to be putting button holes and a finishing touch embroidery on pretty much everything.2 things so far that I dont care for- the light is really not great and indeed it looks like the sleeve bar is a bit large for sewing little girls clothes (which is my primary use) but ultimately i cant complain. I will update eventually when I get to use itna bit more.It's been a few months now and I still ABSOLUTELY love this machine, I've only had maybe 4 mild jams and it's because I'm a noob a sewing and didnt set my fabric in right and naturally it got eaten. My sewing gets less consistent in the summer, but still, no complaints. Also, the sleeve bar is a bit big for little girls clothes, but not so much that it cant be done!

I’m totally satisfied!!!! I’m Very happy and Love my new Juki sewing machine!I just received my Juki 5100. I chose Juki because I have a Juki serger bought a year ago, and my experience with the Juki quality is great. Both my Juki machines are shipped from the same seller which is great.The package came in fast and in excellent packaging condition, no missing parts in the standard footing packet. The machine is quite, runs smoothly on all the stitche patterns I tried. I love love how simple it is just to push the arrow buttons to select the stitche I want and go! The instruction in the manual booklet is great with the explanations of different stitche settings, and I found this is very instrumental for a beginner like myself. Besides, the digital screen will show me the correct footing for each different stitche pattern I select, and that’s pretty much the only thing I need to change out when using different stitche if I have to.I started to make a simple zigzag seams on stretchy cotton knit. And the finish is very impressive as how smooth it looks and effortless to sew it. (I had a different brand mechanical straight line sewing machine that I was so struggling with stretchy, thin or thick fabrics).I am so so happy with what I got as a decision to stay with Juki brand for the price value in quality. And these 100 stitche patterns are just great and good enough for me to do all I need. I am not doing any embodiment or quilting, so I am not speaking of that. But I think I can try with this machine if I can get the correct footings for free style quilting.

This machine is amazing! About 5 years ago I thought I'd like I lean to sew. I bought a mid range brother machine at Walmart. Oh man, it was terrible. It was constantly jamming, having to rethread. I lost all desire to learn by fighting with a cheap machine.Now in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic I wanted to try again so I could support the frontlines and vulnerable with homemade masks. I did a hefty amount of research before selecting this machine. Not one to post reviews often, I wanted to make sure to give this one a shout-out!There are great YouTube tutorials to help you get started on this machine. After learning the basics it's very easy to use. Threading the bobbin and the needle are a piece of cake!! I've only jammed it once and it was easy to clear out and start over!! Wonderful, wonderful machine!!

it's a juki, good sewing machine..my dad likes it.main thing is you have to spend the time to tinker with the machine and learn how to use it.he initially thought it was junk, but once he learned a few tricks he liked it. so it was mostly user error in beginning.you need to have right settings for speed, right needle, and technique...quality of this blows away the competition. we had a singer before, and this is much better;plenty of features, patterns, and settings control.if you really prefer to sew thick materials like jeans, then don't use this, get a standard cast iron one with table and foot control.
