    I would like one also! I've got the Juki TL2010q and love it. I've had it a few years now. It's my favorite!

    To me, I want as big a throat space as I can get, and the F600, wouldn't even get a second look from me, but, if you want it and it's financially feasible, then go ahead and get it.

    Not familiar with the machine, but I have so say that getting a nice computerized machine 5 years ago was worth every penny--I love the features and the nice, even stitch. would the dealer take your other machine as a trade in? (although I didn't do one--who can part with a machine?)

    I have a juki forward and backwards only, and I use it solely for quilting. Haven't seen this machine but I bet it is heavy. I like the juki's as they do everything you ask without question. I've used other machines in a friends shop.

    What machine(s) do you have now? What 3 features attract you to the F600 that you don't have?

    I have the Juki F600 and love it so I may not be the one to talk you out of it. HA. I'm lusting after a mid-arm machine and need to be talked out of that (only because I need to put the money towards my daughter's wedding later this year). If I could just win the lottery. LOL

    i wouldn't talk you out of it either! it's a great machine. it handles thick seams very well. and a huge variety of stitches.

    I have both machines and really like them. The Exceed 600 is a totally different machine than the TL2010 or the TL98Q. It is not nearly as heavy, far more plastic but still sews beautifully. There are lots of stitches and enough throat space for any piecing and small projects. I have not FM'd on it as I have my bigger machine but there is no reason that it wouldn't handle that too. I think you get good value for your $ with this machine. I paid only half as much for it as my former machine a Janome 6500 which I really disliked. The Juki just sews so much better. I have it set up in a SewEasi table and it's great. It's light enough that I could take it to classes if I need it. I don't think that you would be unhappy buying this one. Juki also has a newer model just hitting the market but I don't know how that compares.

    I think you've come to the wrong place if you want us to talk you out of anything sewing/quilting related. LOL
