I just received this machine today. I had to order it after watching all the great tutorials by Vanessa. I'm looking forward to making many projects on this machine. Vanessa you are such a great teacher, thank you for all the free tutorials for a senior citizen like myself.
I just love this tutorial about my lovely Juki! My husband bought me one almost three years ago! I sew through the Pandemic almost everyday! Thanks, I discovered things I didn’t know! You are a great teacher!
Oh my goodness I got my machine Monday and just got to open it last night I bought it for my daughter that sews and also makes things for the market. We have several machines Janome Singer but this is our first Juki She loves it I am so glad. It has everything she needs and is ls light enough for her to move from one table to another. Thank you Vanessa and thank you B for the super quick shipping!!!!!!!!
I have sewn for several years after this review I had to have one and I just received it today and I can’t wait to unpack it and get started thank you so much Vanessa
I have one just like this one . Bought it in March . And I have to saw I'm in love with it . Just what I wanted in a machine. I was looking for the up an down needle I never had on my other machine . Always wanted a Juki heard alot of great comments on them . Couldn't believe it was so light weight . And very reasonable price . Unbelieveable the price is so low . This is a excellent machine an so easy to use . Wish I would have had this tutorial when I bought mind . But I did get a DVD with it on directions . But Thank You so much I certainly enjoyed your tutorial . Very precise . 💞🌼💞🙂
Idk if you’ll see this but if you do can you please give an update on how the machine is holding up? I’m so indecisive as I’ve seen some reviews mentioning the backstitching has issues on this machine and I haven’t seen any video on it addressing the backstitching..
I don't have a Juki, but I do have that same type of bobbin. I got my Brother Machine last March and I just learned from watching your video that I don't have to pull the bobbin thread up like the way I did back in the 70's!!!! Thank you for this video or I would of never learn this!!!!
This was a great review. I'm in the market for a replacement to my 15+ yr old basic machine. I fell in love with the DX5, after watching your review of that one, but it's out of my price range. This machine seems to have a some of the most useful features, at an easy price. Also, since I don't have a dedicated work space, this looks easy to transport. This looks like a contender. Thank you.
I just sent my niece this video she wants me to start teaching her to sew so I recommend her to check you out and the juki machine on your video. I am thinking about buy one for a travel machine.
I loved your review and tutorials using the Juki LB 5020. Soooo, I just had to order the JUKI LB5020 from your website 😊 So excited and patiently waiting…or should I say, impatiently waiting? 😂
I love the way the machine sounded, & it sewed beautiful stitches across all your sample fabrics. I have a very expensive Bernina machine, & it drives me crazy! I curse the day I bought it!! One thing that you did not mention, can you drop the feed dogs to do some free motion quilting? Thank You for another great video, Vanessa!!
I have beautiful Babylock Altaire sewing/embroidery machine, but wanted a small lightweight travel machine for primarily straight stitching. I remembered that you like Juki's so found this video one your website. The machines are out of stock but thinking of adding my name to the email notification and buying this little guy for travel/quick sewing projects. I am used to the automatic threading/cutting features tho LOL.
That sewing machine is looking nice, but out of my price range since I am an beginner and purchased a Singer brand which came with 16 types of stitches on it and it is a manual type and that suits me just fine. I worked for the prison system here in Arkansas before retiring and worked in the laundry where there was an older model Singer and a newer model Juki and they both did the same thing and we used them to repair linen and inmate clothing with and we had certain inmates assigned to operate them.
@@bettyspencer3120 It seem to be nice, but I have not used it for any major projects yet. I have the 2277 model and it is nice and I plan to buy more accessories for it from Singer like sewing feet.
I loved watching this! I have a Pfaff, love it for 32 years, but I really would like a lighter machine in case I want to travel with it. My Pfaff is metal and very heavy. What I'm worried about buying out of state and my area, is I won't have any warranty coverage. Also, I assume I'll be paying sales tax? (Michigan). Amazon is offering this machine for $299, yes I would rather buy from you .....
I ordered it and happy with it. I have been reading all of the instructions and cannot find any info on whether the machine will need oiling. I have the Juki TL-2000 and I have to oil it frequently because I use it nearly every day for quilting. Do you have any info you can share with me?
I have just discovered you last week while looking for beginner machines. I love all of what you're doing with your tutorials and your store. But please, is there a cheaper machine that you can recommend? what about those little $70 machines on amazon, or the brother machines for less than $150?
Thank you for this video, Vanessa! I am needing a travel machine for my camper and weekly sewing at a park. I tried out a lower end Janome and was very disappointed in the quality of the straight stitch. It remained teenie tiny on quilting cotton no matter what stitch length I set it on. It looks like the straight stitches are well defined, but it is hard to tell if the stitch length really changes. Please advise.
Hi Liz, I'm not familiar with the machine you're using but assuming the stitch length selector is working and you're only using two layers of quilting cotton it sounds like the fabric may be too thick for what that machine's feed dogs can handle or there is too much pressure being applied to the fabric from the presser foot itself. I would contact the dealer you bought it from (if you did) or contact the manufacturer. Good luck!
But what type needle 🪡 did you use for the different fabrics Please tell me you did not even have to change the needle 🤞🏽 cause I do not know the needle requirements 🙈
I’m interested in purchasing this machine for travel and quilting, however I am having trouble finding a 1/4 quilting presser foot or even feed walking that is made for this machine. Does anyone know where I can find these feet for the lb5020? Thank you!
Is this machine still available? I see LB 5100 with many more pattern options, which I don't need. 20 patterns are more than enough for me. thx. 5 series with 20 patterns is 5020, and with100 patterns is 5100??
is computerized sewing machine is durable some people say its not a durable sewing machine and service of that machines are very expensive i want to buy computerized machine what is your opinion about computerized machines?
Bonjour ma chère. je ne m'exprime pas en anglais mais je me débrouille du mieux que je peux à comprendre la langue. j'aime cette vidéo. comment me procurer un exemplaire de cette machine, s'il vous plait ?
I have no idea where else I can ask you - do you have a pattern or tutorial on making a cell phone purse with touch screen front. I’m looking for one a little bit larger than the small cell phone case, with a zipper compartment. Thanks!

Just ordered the machine!! So value your opinions!! You are the best, Vanessa!!
Yay! You'll love it~!
Wondering how you are liking the juki?
if I were in the market for a new machine, I would buy this! Thank you Vanessa!!
Bought myself this Juki and I am loving it. I’m looking forward to start making some quilts with it.
Looks like a great little travel machine😊
I just sent my niece this video she wants me to start teaching her to sew so I recommend her to check you out and the juki machine on your video. I am thinking about buy one for a travel machine.
It's so cute. My vintage machine is a mammoth in comparison. Nice price point. Would make a fantastic gift for my new little sewers.
I have a Jimi F600...love it!!! This is a great video and just in time for someone to request it for Christmas!

Another machine I decided to purchase based on your review!
Just ordered from you, looking forward to giving it as a holiday gift!
Thanks for your support! Happy sewing!
Pretty stitch on that machine

Hi. Can you give more info on your cheaper Singer machine? This one is too much money for me as well. Thanks.
@@bettyspencer3120 It seem to be nice, but I have not used it for any major projects yet. I have the 2277 model and it is nice and I plan to buy more accessories for it from Singer like sewing feet.
@@semco72057 thanks for replying. That 2277 cost $257 on Amazon. That's too much for my needs.
I need one of these for a travel machine
That sewing machine would be great to have.
Thanks for the great video. I'm wondering if the dog feeds can be lowered for free motion sewing??
I loved watching this! I have a Pfaff, love it for 32 years, but I really would like a lighter machine in case I want to travel with it. My Pfaff is metal and very heavy.

This sewing machine is great! It has replaced several other well-- known brand sewing machines.
Wow what a workhorse!
Thank you so much for this thorough review, Vanessa! Wondering if you could answer this question -- is the body of the machine metal or plastic?
Really looks like a great machine.
thank you for your review. I really need a beginner's training fresh. Where do I begin? Do you offer training?
I ordered it and happy with it. I have been reading all of the instructions and cannot find any info on whether the machine will need oiling. I have the Juki TL-2000 and I have to oil it frequently because I use it nearly every day for quilting. Do you have any info you can share with me?
Are you going to be doing an updated sewing room tour of your new sewing room???
ILove my new machine thank you

Hi, can you make ruffles on sleeves for babies here?
I have this machine. I just bought it used in excellent condition. How do I clean and oil it?
would this machine sew thick toweling for hooded towels?
But what type needle 🪡 did you use for the different fabrics
Please tell me you did not even have to change the needle 🤞🏽 cause I do not know the needle requirements 🙈
Is this true that Juki doesn’t make a double welt cord foot for this model? They told me on the phone today. Is there a generic substitute?
How is the reverse stitching?
What is the throat size? From machine to needle and from plate up to the bottom of the top part of the machine?
How do you change the light bulb in this machine? The manual does not have any information on this.
What impresses me is that she doesn’t have to hold the threads at the beginning of the seam!
When are you going to get more in stock?
We have them in stock here: craftygemini.com/shop/juki-hzl-lb5020-sewing-machine/
I ordered the machine but I received a juki LB 5100 instead I’m a newbie does that make a difference
Can you tell me the difference between this 5020 and the 5100?
Can you use a twin needle on this sewing machine?
yes.
I’m interested in purchasing this machine for travel and quilting, however I am having trouble finding a 1/4 quilting presser foot or even feed walking that is made for this machine. Does anyone know where I can find these feet for the lb5020? Thank you!
THANKS
Now you should do a review on a server. 😁
Is this a loud machine?
Is this machine still available? I see LB 5100 with many more pattern options, which I don't need.
20 patterns are more than enough for me. thx.
5 series with 20 patterns is 5020, and with100 patterns is 5100??
Yes. We sell it here: craftygemini.com/shop/juki-hzl-lb5020-sewing-machine/
I was sold when I noticed you can control the speed and you don’t have to hold the tails!
What is the price for this machine?
is computerized sewing machine is durable some people say its not a durable sewing machine and service of that machines are very expensive i want to buy computerized machine what is your opinion about computerized machines?
Bonjour ma chère. je ne m'exprime pas en anglais mais je me débrouille du mieux que je peux à comprendre la langue. j'aime cette vidéo. comment me procurer un exemplaire de cette machine, s'il vous plait ?
Tu peux trouver le manual sur Google …
@@mariefrance8132 merci
Quel est ton e-mail? Je peux t’envoyer le manual, mais en anglais?
Voici le link pour le manual. www.juki.co.jp/household_en/hsm/pdf/HZL-L%20Series_EN_inst.pdf
How do someone know they are not a beginner anymore to move up to a intermediate . And are ready to purchase a better machine..TFS
I have no idea where else I can ask you - do you have a pattern or tutorial on making a cell phone purse with touch screen front. I’m looking for one a little bit larger than the small cell phone case, with a zipper compartment. Thanks!
Nope. I don't have one.
