Consew 206RB-5 Walking Foot Industrial Sewing Machine with Table and Servo Motor

The media could not be loaded. No es tan difícil como dicen algunos comentarios, solo hablamos español y los videos de Youtube son solo en inglés. Eso nos pareció más difícil, el entenderlos. Pero solo hay que poner atención y regresar el video hasta hacerlo. Duramos 3 horas en armarla estoy muy contento con la compra todo llegó completo y hasta nos sobraron tornillos. Jajajaja. Es broma. Ahora a probar la máquina pero por lo que veo es una muy excelente máquina.Nota: ya llevo 15 días con ella y me impresiona lo suave y silenciosa que es. Les recomiendo que mientras se suaviza y aprenden a utilizarla coloquen el regulador de revoluciones en el más bajo que son unas 350 rpm. Dirán que sería muy lenta. Pero aún a esas revoluciones no lo es.

The machine is great and sews perfectly! Just take a look at that sample double french seam. Servo motor is a nice improvement over a clutch motor. Placement of the knee lift was a bit of a challenge, but after a couple failed placements I found the perfect spot.

After a long research of why machine didn't want to work i found out they gave me a broken bobbin rotary whatever it's called . So I'm just returning this whole thing .

This is a fantastic machine, and the seller was very helpful. I had a little trouble threading the machine the first time. I watched some Youtube videos, but they weren’t helpful even though I have experience on industrial machines. The seller walked me through threading the machine. It sews wonderfully.The seller is very nice and very helpful.Here are some things you should expect because it is an industrial machine.It isn’t easy to setup and install. You should look up multiple YouTube videos and watch them. Expect it to take at least a couple hours.It is an industrial machine, and it isn’t easy to use if you haven’t sewn on a walking foot before.You need to push the bobbin case in very hard until you hear it click.Enjoy!

With just a few moments of sampling, the machine itself seems to be heavy duty and working. I’ll update on the machine if necessary.As this is a package purchase, I am commenting more earnestly about the table and instructions.First, be clear, there are NO instructions. I figured I’m pretty handy and like puzzles. I’ve got this. Several hours later... here’s the problem. The big pieces are easy enough. I can figure out where a leg and a pedal go. What I had no idea about were the bolts, washers, lock washers, screws of various sizes and nails. There is absolutely no direction for what to use where. The machine weighs 80 pounds. It’s not like I can just throw it all together and hope my choices are right. Strength is important. I watched several YouTube videos including the one by the seller. Not one video had an exact match for the parts I was sent. Also, not one video showed how to assemble anything beyond the actual table. One mounted the motor. None connected the machine or showed the bobbin winder or anything else. I’m running a business. The down time on this machine due to assembly issues was not acceptable.Second, the table top is easily chipped. I have several chips (see pics) and I haven’t even actually used the machine yet.Finally, the first table top had a cutout that did not fit the machine. After several calls and numerous attempts to send pics, they finally sent me a replacement top. Same problem. The machine fits in when you set it in the hole to dry run it. After you add the bumpers and hinges, the machine no longer fits. For the replacement top, I explained that the front corners need to be rounder to allow for the bumpers and for the machine to tilt up. They did not make the adjustment, even though if you watch their video of the machine assembly you can see that they have done exactly that. How can they be shipping table tops with incorrect cutouts over and over again?I ended using my oscillating tool and routing out the corners myself, hence the chipping at the corner that you see in the pic.Their customer service is extremely friendly. I hate to give such a poor review, but from a business perspective, the whole experience was unacceptable.

Arrived at my house in two days in three boxes. Assembly was easy thanks to youtube instructions, machine works perfectly, and I am up and running! Thanks!

I had a Consew many years ago with a huge 3/4 horse motor. The new motor is much smaller with the same power. Really nice. As others have stated, there are no instructions for setup. Thank the stars for those folks that have posted on You Tube. (Although, be warned, some of the instructions are not correct.) If you are mechanically inclined, you will figure it out. If not, I would suggest you contact a provider that can put it together for you. I understand that Consew moved their manufacturing to China some time back. It seems to be a solid product. Very happy so far.

Great machine if I could get customer service to help with missing parts and answer my question about a specific part received. There is also only 1-2 videos on youtube that shows how to assemble, and even after watching these videos, I still have questions. It's really weird that they are able to sell these machines with next to no customer service. Update: I did, today, receive the missing parts. They were very quick to send these to me. I thank them for that, so I've update the rating from 2 stars to 3 stars, because they have still not answered another question I submitted to them about a specific part's function. The 3 stars is also for the absolute void of proper instructions.
