Juki 2010/2000?
Hi all,
I'm new to your amazing forum and hope someone can offer some advice. I found the forum as I was looking for information on users of the Juki 2000 or Juki 2010. I am looking at one or the other of them, primarily for doing the free motion quilting on my quilts. I'm currently using a beloved old Elna 6005 to do all my quilting and fm, but want something with a longer arm. I don't need a bunch of fancy stitches, just a good steady machine. Your thoughts on the Juki mid arms? Anyone using one? Is there much difference between the 2000 and the 2010?
Thanks!
Kate

I also have a Juki 2010Q. I have only had it about a year and I love it. I have mostly used it for piecing and have done one FMQ project - my first and only so far! The machine worked just fine, but I'm still learning.
Here is a link to the Juki website so that you can compare the two: http://www.jukihome.com/products/quiltingmain.html

I have a Juki tl98q as well. . I LOVE IT. I do my own quilting. I don't use it as a long arm I use it as a regular machine and stipple all my own quilts. I love this machine and it is 1500 stitches per. I can hardly sew on my other machines they seem so slow. good luck with yours.

I'm thinking about one of these machines too. I love my Pfaff Quiltstyle for piecing but now that I'm actively focused on finishing UFOs the 6.5" harp is a real battle for machine quilting. My nearest Juki dealer is 3 hours away so I need to schedule a trip to try them out. I bought my Pfaff 10 years ago to replace an 18 year old Elna, so I'm probably due!

I have the 2010q and I just love it. I do piecing and FMQ with it. I have had it 1 year.
I highly recommend it. It is a real work horse. I have a Brother also but compared to my Juki,
I have to go with the Juki.

My DH is a gem. Today I was quilting my largest Project Linus UFO which measures 48 x 72. I heard his car in the garage, but he usually looks at the mail for awhile so thought I'd finish the row I was on before taking a break. All of a sudden I looked up and he was standing in the doorway watching me. He said "I thought you could pay someone to do that?". I explained that I could and do sometimes but thought I could manage this one. Obviously he could see it was not going well. I mentioned I was thinking about a bigger machine and showed him how more room on the right side would make a big difference and he said that sounds like a great Christmas gift! Woo!! And, I found a Juki dealer just 2 hrs away!
