Full Version: Machine ranking

Sorry, Jim, no help at all. As stated in the original post I'm looking for people to rate on a 0-10 numerical scale the listed machines based on their experience and/or their opinions. Amplifying information is ok, but I'm interested, right now, in how the people perceive the equipment.

I took the liberty of rating each based on what I've been able to glean from a couple of sources but I have no practical experience. I do, however, have an appointment to see a demo of a Tajima machine.

If I rated the machines based on how the different companies/dealers treat inquiries I'd have to rate Tajima at the top and Barudan at the bottom with Baby Lock, Toyota, and Prodigi. Three requests to dealers of each of those three have gone unanswered. Go figure.

Not to get off topic, but I had a somewhat similar experience with Tajima, Toyota and SWF. The Barudan rep called me and kept in touch for almost 18 mos after my DH got hurt and I had to put off buying my machine - no one else did (however since I bought the first machine I haven't heard from him ) I couldn't get a response out of Toyota, so I put a comment on the Toyota forum - got a call from the VP of sales himself within a day :) Both Toyota and Tajima have undergone major restructuring in the past year, so I am surprised that you aren't getting a response from Toyota. I have just never been in an industry where the sales force can be so bad and still sell machines.
