brmax Report post Posted February 4, 2018 They are similar as medium size cylinder arm sew machines. Both designed for the 301 stitch. They will both use typical and the same presser feet in a Singer design. The Juki 1341 is a bit newer in design, with access to shafts and its adjustments on top. This runs a M size bobbin. The Consew 227 is based on the Singer 153-B8B to my knowledge. The Consew company is a part of Seiko and has been the successor to Singer industrial for quite some time. These both have other manufactures nowdays making similar designs. Good day Floyd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Singermania Report post Posted February 22, 2018 the Juki 341 is a heavier machine than the 227R,,,,, you'll get 8 or 9 mm thickness out of the 227 but the 341 will sew 11mm with a 15mm footlift. the 341 looks roughly the same size but every component is that bit heavier, do the lift test and you'll feel it. In the Cowboy range in Australia our compound leather range runs....227R....7341....3200...then up to the 4500 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
