Brownie1 Report post Posted March 23, 2022 Hi guys, I'm looking for some advice as to what machine to go with if I were to purchase one of the 2 machines. Either the Consew 227R or a Mach 3. They are both comparable in price. What are your thoughts? I'm presently making small leather goods such as passport holders, some leather and canvas bags and change holders out of veg tan leather. Thanks Kevin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot is going to depend on condition and price. A couple of photo's would be helpful. The Mach 3 use to be I think the house brand clone of Leighton's Industrial Sewing Machines out of Alberta. I am not sure if they are still in business so it would be wise to check. kgg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handstitched Report post Posted March 23, 2022 If it was me making that decision, I'd be going for the Consew. Mainly because its a common recognisable and reliable brand, and for the availability of parts . I don't know too much about the Mach 3 . Have you seen any user reviews regarding the Mach 3 ?
