Toyota Oekaki50R Oekaki 50 - rot Sewing Machine, Plastic, red

great item, ultra fast delivery

Having great fun with this instructions incomplete

Unfortunately the box was badly damaged on delivery, but luckily the machine was not damaged. This a brilliant piece of kit which is just beginning to become familiar. There is much to learn, and am greatly looking forward to the sewing journey.

Even if you have other machines, you NEED this one :) this one does what no other sewing machine does. It is so heavy duty for all your denims etc. the oekaki side is best thing ever as you can control the width of the stitch on your free motion sewing. Quilting is a dream as it takes many layers and has the tacking feature, I tack everything before sewing with ease, saves so much time. The added bonus is the walking foot that comes with it and many lovely embroidery stitches to boot. The machine its self is a nice weight as not too heavy and fantastic to look at, it takes any threads at all, especially the really thick ones. This is a work horse and has a handy storage compartment at the front. You never need to use instructions as it is so easy to use. It also does all the other utility stitches like stretch and buttonholed etc. how on earth they can even produce such quality for this price surprises me no end.

Just bought one of these machines and I love it. This machine is great for free machine embroidery and sewing layers. It basically does what it says on the box! My main reason for marking this machine high is because it is so easy to handle. I had found free machine embroidery quite tiring on my older machine (Pfaff Creative 1475cd), also it struggled with thickness, but on this one its a doddle and I even surprised myself with my handling skills when in Oekaki mode. The ergonomic work area makes a huge difference. It is a great addition to any sewing room.

Although I bought this as an upgrade from the previous Toyota Super Jeans, At first I loved it, apart from a few quirks, like the awkward reverse button, and only able to reverse in plain stitch. (making a bar tack very awkward!I found it wasn't as powerful as the Super Jeans 34, over multi layers. In fact mine gave up after only 5 months, it's awaiting repair, probably a new motor, and computer fix as well! I've now bought a heavy duty Singer, as a back up, whilst awaiting the six week repair backlog, (due to Covid) on the Oekaki. Knowing what I know now, I wouldn't recommend it! Looks beautiful, but more suitable for light sewers!

Is a good machine . Does what it should and more.

Was bought for Craft Club which my wife attends. So far they are quite pleased with machine. They had problem with instrucional DVD but after contacting makers a printed booklet was sent.
