JUKI is one of the leading industrial machine manufacturers and ranks as the no.1 sewing machine manufacturer in the world. It also produces sewing machines for the home or hobbyist market and surface mount component placement machines for electronics manufacturing.
The Juki MCS 1500 is a great machine capable of both cover stitch and chain stitch in one machine at a great affordable price. It features 4 thread, 3 thread (wide), and 3 thread (narrow) cover stitches which are great for hems, necklines, cuffs of sleeves, and more. The MCS-1500 is the ideal partner that gives a professional finish to your textiles and garments.
The stitches also stretch, meaning you can use this machine for stretchable fabrics. The chain stitch is great for decorative stitching, but also serves a purpose because it is quite strong, it’s great for waistbands and the side seams of pants as well.
The presser foot on the Juki MCS 1500 can be lifted easily at an upward angle to make it easier for you to slip the fabric underneath. The pressure of the presser foot is also adjustable based on the fabric you are working with.
The extension plate has guide lines to make it easier for you to manage your seams, while the presser foot also comes with a guide to use. There is an external thread cutter as well to make things even easier for you. The differential feed is adjustable with a single dial to make it easier to sew different fabrics.
