Members Cumberland Highpower Posted August 14, 2022 Members Report Posted August 14, 2022 I am curious about the Consew 2050 sewing machines. I've owned a few Consews over the years (Seikos made in Japan). And I'm curious about the current model 2050. The price tag on the new machines seems pretty high, (compared to some imports) leading me to wonder if these 2050s are made in Japan? Are they made in Japan or China? If they're Chinese are they same machines sold by Weaver/etc and just painted blue? Anyone have any thoughts on these machines? Quote
Members Handstitched Posted August 15, 2022 Members Report Posted August 15, 2022 Have you considered a 'Cowboy 4500' or another brand and compared costs?

Members shoepatcher Posted August 15, 2022 Members Report Posted August 15, 2022 Isn't the Consew 2050 a clone of an Adler 205 where the Cowboy 4500 is a clone of the Juki 441? glenn Quote

Members Cumberland Highpower Posted August 16, 2022 Author Members Report Posted August 16, 2022 Interesting Bob.... Handstitched I am mostly just curious. I'd pick up another machine to have if I could get a quality machine made in Germany/Japan Just looking at the Consew 2050 as I feel like there is a chance it's not made in China. Wasn't too long ago they sold Seiko stitchers with a Consew label. I can still order Juki 441's but I never was real fond of them. I do have Adlers including a 205 currently. Quote

Is there a quality issue with sewing machines made in China? I thought all of the 441 clones were made in China. I've never heard anything bad about them. Quote

Members shoepatcher Posted August 17, 2022 Members Report Posted August 17, 2022 Bob, Actually Weaver got the Weaver 2050 thru Atlanta Attachment. Golden Wheel made them. They sent 40 some back because of problems. The whole thing was a real shit show for Weaver. By the way, Allen Burkholder has retire from Weaver effective July24th. On his own. glenn Quote
Members Cumberland Highpower Posted August 17, 2022 Author Members Report Posted August 17, 2022 Shoepatcher you mentioned Weaver's 2050, are you saying they are the same machine that Consew is selling? Or are you just correcting Bob? Quote
