You are too awesome! I was using the website and various other sites as a point of reference, but this website is definitely my go-to. Anyway, I just didn't understand the differences in models if their differences were slight. Now that I have found the differences because of the PDF posted above, is the binder detachable and reattachable with ease? Or, can I just simply by one separately and screw it separately on a model that isn't listed as FS? Just curious. There seems to be a few differences in the the two different types, 227 and 277, just didn't know how drastic they were considering on the website it literally lists almost the exact same things.

I had the exact same question!

Okay I've stalked this site for quite some time now, and thanks to many of you all's knowledge and expertise, you have encouraged me to save my money. Well, now has come the time I have finally saved what I assume is necessary to step my foot into the world of the industrial machine. I have finally saved approximately $2500 for a machine, and now I'm stuck. (I have separately for the servo motor and shopping, as well as a little differences in costs if necessary if it makes a drastic difference). I need your help! I can't decide between the Consew 227 or the 277 and/or their different models. From what I've read the "R" on the end of each model type represents "reverse" which I think for my use is absolutely necessary. What I'll be sewing is leather bags (the usual) plus some saddle bags, leather luggage, and occasionally sometimes jeans with 8+ layers of denim (typical jeans). I've tried and tried researching the differences and sometimes they're so vague I can't derives between the two. Does the advertise spi for each mode mean up to that particular width or just specially that width only? Also the distance between the foot clearance gets a bit confusing. Also on a more drastic and far fetched question, what is the difference between 227R-1, 227R-2, 227R-3, as well as 277R, 277RFS, 277R-3, 277RBFS, 277RFS and their various different models between types, etc? All the lettering confuses me and I can't seem to find a source to clarify the differences between types of each different model! Please help!
