Janome 219S Sewing Machine - Just Released

Product Information

The only thing that tripped us up a bit was that we you just have to remember to pull out the hand wheel to move the machine into bobbin winding mode (and push it back in after). We are a credit broker not a lender – credit is subject to status and affordability, and is provided by Novuna Personal Finance a trading style of Mitsubishi HC Capital UK PLC. It has a front-loading bobbin which is easy to remove, wind and load, and you can thread the top thread easily following the step by step instructions in the manual. The biggest drawback for us for this model is that you can't lower the feed dogs, which means you can't use it for freehand quilting or embroidery, but there's plenty of other snazzy things you can do with it to keep you busy. This makes it a good choice if you don't have a dedicated sewing area in your home but find yourself often putting away and then setting up your machine, for example at a dining table.

At Frank Nutt Sewing Machines we have an in house servicing and repairs team that are on hand to help. As with a beginner machine at the lower cost-end of the market, there will be other machines out there which offer you a wider range of more advanced functions, stitches and accessories, but this affordable all-rounder is great value for money. More advanced machines will offer a wider range of stitch options but these are more than enough for most dressmaking and quilting needs.The detachable storage box converts the flat bed into a useful free arm and allows easy access to tricky areas like sleeves and trouser legs, extra height foot lifter doubles the height of the foot and allows for extra bulky fabrics and the independent stitch length adjustment increases the versatility. Janome 219-S is a lightweight machine making it easier to transport, plus with a front-loading bobbin case. It has a front loading bobin, which is quick to load, aoutomatic winding of the bobbin, spool pins that drop down for storage and soft cover plus weighing 6. I am really pleased with it and have no criticisms to make apart from the foot pedal is so light it wanders about a bit, but that is a very minor thing. This is a fantastic entry level robust machine with a good selection of popular stitches and features.

It has a front loading bobbin, two retractable spool pins to enable twin needle work, drop feed facility for free motion sewing. Credit is provided by Novuna Consumer Finance, a trading style of Mitsubishi HC Capital UK PLC, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Let me tell you I was beginning to think I’d made a mistake in purchasing one, however I opened the box when I got home, quickly set it up and it works like a dream and so quiet in comparison.
