JUKIHaruka TL18QVP White Aluminum Portable Sewing Machine, 25.0 x 18.0 x 14.0 inches, 25.0 pounds

Omg what a beautiful machine! PERFECT stitches. Quiet and smooth.I’m in heaven

I love this machine. My sewing projects look so much better. I had no idea a better machine could make that much of a difference. I highly recommend it.

I don't know what I ever did without this machine. I have three other sewing machines (2 brothers and 1 singer) and a serger, but this is bar far the best. It only does straight stitch, but it does it well! I had been thinking about investing in an industrial or semi-industrial machine for a while for use in my bag making. After much research, I settled on Juki, and picked the Haruka because of the portability (yes, it's heavy, but it can be transported), and the extras that came with it. The platform that you can attach to it is huge, and the extra feet are great. So far I've only used the reguar foot, zipper foot, and compensating foot, but am looking forward to trying my hand at maching quilting with the included quilting feet. I love the thread cutter feature, and can now never go back to a machine that doesn't have it. The foot control is very sensitive, making it easy to control the speed, and it doesn't slide across the floor like my other foot controllers do on my other machines.I feel I have to mention the cons: 1) the zipper foot is not hinged - it would be much better if it was hinged and flexible to go over the ends of zippers, etc. 2) You can't see the bobbin thread to know when you're getting low. Neither of these is enough to knock my rating down from the max 5 stars, though. I am so happy I made the investment in this machine!

Sewing denim and leather straps to pocketbooks was wanky with the Singer sewing machines, even the heavy duty. Now it's a breeze.

I’ve been back to seeing just about a year now mainly bag making. In February I bought a Viking Emerald 116 which was wonderful…. Until I started working with canvas and heavier fabric. Did a little research and decided on this machine. Sooo glad I did - it’s like driving a Porsche and hasn’t slowed down for anything. Watch all the YouTube videos-they are the basic training that you need.

I purchased the Juki QVP TL-18QVP in April 2024, expecting a high-quality machine for my sewing projects. I barely used it, always kept up with maintenance, and made sure everything was in perfect condition. However, when I finally went to use it for a project, it completely stopped working in the middle of my sew—no warning, no error message, just dead.For a machine at this price point, this is completely unacceptable. I expected durability and reliability from Juki, but this machine has been nothing but a disappointment. Save your money and look elsewhere!

I finally got my dream machine after 200 dollars off. I am so happy! It is very high quality, and it is good for sewing, quilting, and bag making!

I will be using the Juki TL 18QVP for quilting. There were three items missing from the box: the power cord, machine cover and machine manual. Would it be possible to have these items replaced. Thank you.
