Contributing Member Ferg Posted July 24, 2023 Contributing Member Report Posted July 24, 2023 I own the Consew 206RB-5. Great machine, have owned it about six or more years I think. Never have had a problem with it. Never needed manufacturer help. Uses popular needles and will sew forever. Ferg Quote
Members Gump Posted July 24, 2023 Members Report Posted July 24, 2023 Sailrite is a wanne-be machine. I have a 205RB3 and the folks at Consew are good to work with, even with 40 year old machines like my 227r. The 205 is a rugged machine and simple to time and maintain [OIL]. Bobbins, needles and feet are easy to find. It takes singer 111w type feet. Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted July 25, 2023 Members Report Posted July 25, 2023 Buy the Consew. Better machine. Never been impressed with Sailrite machines. I think they are overpriced. I have been sewing and working on machines for over 40 years. Consew the better machine. Better built. glenn Quote
