I have been using the Happy Voyager for over 10 years, I have 2 of them, they are both 12 needle machines. I'm Supper happy with the production and quality of the machines. They just keep running and running.
Can we all just put our brand loyalty aside for a second and appreciate how incredible it is these machines exist at all? I work in the medical imaging field and there are some machines that still blow my mind to this day like MRI, CT, and Nuc Med. However, I will say that after having to repair an old over-used 1st versoin Happy HCD-15 (reciprocator, potentiometer, and springs) I get the same feeling, like how in the hell does this thing even work? it's so complicated but works like a Rolex.
Ricoma can sew a satin stitch at 1kspm without a problem. They slowed the text needle down to 750-800spm and the satin stitch needle down to 300spm. This is fake. Look how much vibration and play is going on with that hoop on the happy machine to the right. Yikes!
The fact that they are all single heads seems like bs to me that the machines are so far off in production from each other. Happy Japan you seem desperate, your probably still masking up 😂
