Zhenshanmei, also known as Chelemei, has a history of 100 years since its establishment, has acquired the well-known Swiss sewing machine brand Elna and the Japanese sewing machine manufacturer Hosei, and has now become one of the world's largest multi-functional sewing machine enterprises, with an annual output of more than 2 million units, sold to more than 100 countries and regions around the world.
In the global market, the sewing machine has a complete range of products, from the simplest conventional products of 2 kinds of stitches (straight line and zigzag stitch) to 300 kinds of stitches multi-functional sewing machines and automatic embroidery machines.
However, because Zhenshanmei has not yet set up an official organization in China, the product richness is obviously inferior to that of its brothers, although it can still cover different grades, but there are many fewer choices of the same grade, including the DC5100, which was rated as the best mid-range sewing machine by the foreign professional evaluation agency The Wirecutter, and the best entry-level sewing machine Mod-19, and many other models are not sold in China.
The advantages of the sewing machine are obvious, high stability, good stitching quality, smooth sewing, the cloth feeding teeth can always send the fabric to the needle at the right speed, even if the heavy denim or quilting layer does not need to be pushed or pulled, it is the best when sewing cotton and denim. Although the number of stitches and the lack of functions of the machine are not rich enough, and the processing of elastic knitted fabrics is slightly worse than that of Singer, it can provide a more comfortable creative platform for sewing enthusiasts or professionals with certain sewing skills.
Compared with other brands of sewing machines at the same price, Zhenshanmei 2049 adopts a relatively low-level vertical swing shuttle structure, and the bottom line is not very convenient to replace, but Zhenshanmei will use the cost saved to improve other more core performance, such as the sewing speed of up to 860 stitches / minute, even slightly faster than the brother GS2700, and thanks to the overall cast aluminum skeleton and excellent workmanship, the machine can remain stable when sewing at high speeds, making up for the shortcomings of vertical swing shuttle structure vibration and noise.
Zhenshanmei 2049 has 25 kinds of built-in stitches, the stitch length and stitch width can be adjusted, supports automatic threading, one-key backstitching and double-needle sewing and other functions, and the amount of speed increase and speed reduction is well controlled through the foot pedal, and the speed can be gradual to achieve stepless speed change, unlike the Singer 4423 at the same price, which feels only the fastest and slowest difference. Compared with Truth, Kindness and Beauty 2039, 2049 costs 200 yuan more, but it can be exchanged for the needle width adjustment function, more stitches, and a more convenient one-step lock hole function, so it is more recommended to sell the Truth, Kindness and Beauty 2049 priced at about 1300 yuan.
Zhenshanmei DC7100 is an upgraded version of DC5100, which was rated as the best mid-range sewing machine by The Wirecutter, with more stitch count, and can easily select 100 kinds of built-in stitches and 6 kinds of buttonhole stitches through the numeric keypad and LCD display, the sewing speed is 70-820 stitches/min, the maximum stitch width is 7mm, the maximum stitch length is 5mm, and the machine is equipped with 3 LED white light lights that are very friendly to people with poor vision, and the price is about 4300 yuan.
