Janome HD 3000 BE Black Edition with Exclusive Bonus Bundle

The product did not work starting with the bobbin winder. The black color makes it hard to see the threading area.

I love this home sewing machine. Almost the strength of an industrial sewing machine.

I just received this machine two hours ago. Read directions wound a bobbin and threaded machine. It is only sewing in reverse. Its Sunday and I wanted to use it. I just bought cheap brother for my nephew. It sewed fine. I wanted a heavy duty machine. My 1950s singer was acting up.

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

Nice solid machine. Real up grade from my 30+ year old machine.

This machine is easy to set up for sewing. Easy to follow instructions. Very smooth and quiet to operate!

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.

This is a non-electronic basic machine. Doesnt like to sew thick material. Not suitable for quilting. I returned it and purchased a machine to handle quilting.

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!

I am very disappointed only used a few times I got this one because it says it sees thick fabric. Well on my third time trying the matching I was sewing with fleece. It James up so I changed needle and rethreaded but now the timing is off and won’t pickup bobbin thread. Then I see I can’t return item.
