Juki HZL-F300
SewingSpecs does not sell and does not show shop prices: check the price where you buy.
The HZL-F300 is the entry point of Juki's Exceed line, with 106 stitch patterns and 3 letter fonts. The 16 buttonholes are automatic and sensor-based: width adjusts without changing stitch density, so they stay solid whether narrow or wide. Thread tension can stay automatic or switch to manual with a dial, depending on the fabric.
Several patterns or letters can be combined into a sequence and saved, up to 70 patterns in 10 memory folders, recalled with a button. The LCD screen shows the active stitch and recommends which presser foot to use; the feed dog drops with a switch for free-motion quilting, and the needle threader is automatic. The free arm is exposed by removing the accessory box.
The knee lifter and the large extension table are optional accessories, not included. It suits someone who wants room to grow - adjustable buttonholes, corded decorative stitches, saveable pattern sequences - without yet taking on the cost of an embroidery module.
