GUR Sewing Superstore

I needed a replacement for my old sewing machine. Having purchased the Novum overlocker and a cover stitch machine from GUR, both of which I have been very pleased with, I decided to purchase the Novum sewing machine.I finally tried it out this week and am so pleased with it. It runs very smoothly and is so much quieter than my Janome sewing machine. I tried setting some of the embroidery stitches with pleasing results. A bonus that I purchased this during the Black Friday event.Delivery was, as usual with GUR, the next day. Give the company and the machine 5 Stars all day long

I’ve had this machine a few months now, because I wanted to give it a proper use before leaving my review. I bought this machine for free motion quilting, to use on my Freestyle quilting frame - I’d been using a Brother NV1800Q (which also doubles as my main sewing machine) but wanted more throat space.

I used the Novum straight out of the box to quilt a bed sized quilt, and I’m really impressed with it. I’ve used Brother machines for more than a decade and was a bit nervous to buy a machine from a brand unknown to me, but the Novum actually performs better than the Brother with quilting.

The Brother seemed to require a specific combination of needle, thread and speed to get good quality results, but the Novum performed perfectly with whatever combination I gave it - not a single skipped stitch, thread nest, or snapped thread throughout the whole quilt, not even over the thick seams.

I’m extremely impressed with it and am so glad I bought it. Yes it’s big, but it feels really solidly built and performed exactly what I asked of it without drama. 10/10, and if you’re thinking of buying it, you won’t be disappointed.

I bought this Pro Q9 instinctively after struggling to sew layered projects with my main machine. Well, I have to mention I’m really impressed! It produces excellent stitches, has a long arm for handling wider projects, and it effortlessly keeps up with my pedal speed.

I decided to upgrade from my Brother sewing machine, looking for a model with more arm space to accommodate everything from small projects to large quilts. The Novum Pro Q500 has met all my expectations! It includes every feature my Brother lacked: a knee lifter for hands-free presser foot control, faster sewing speeds, consistent stitches (even at high speeds), a built-in thread cutter, a drop-in bobbin and it's still computerised. I’ve even seen quilters use the Novum Pro Q500 on a long-arm rig to topstitch quilts. Although I was initially hesitant about the higher price, I’m thrilled with my choice. I did encounter some minor tension issues during the first few uses, but they quickly resolved, and I haven’t had any problems since. Right now, I’m working on a quilt for my daughter, and it’s coming together beautifully. I would absolutely purchase this machine again and look forward to adding a second Novum in the future, as well as making many quilts for my loved ones.

Great table I was using just the embroidery unit for the extension but couldn't stand the having to move the unit. Can sew in piece and quiet without struggling with loads of fabric, and yes it does fit.

I am very pleased with my purchase.

GUR are a great company to deal with. They always answer queries in a prompt friendly manner. The machine arrived next working day. I used it a couple of days later, as wanted to give it my full time and attention.

It hemmed stretch material like a dream. It came pre threaded, but I have since threaded it myself, which was easier than threading as overlocker, although I do have the hang of that particular machine now.

I am looking forward to making lots of items and giving them a professional finish.

The machine was on offer and it came with a free carrier, which is brilliant for transporting and keeping machine dust free.

Highly recommend GUR.

I went to the NEC in Birmingham for the Festival of Quilts; I was impressed with the whole day.The stall for horn furniture was also there, and they had the sewing chair.

I had been looking at the chair online, but there were a few negative comments about the comfort, so i had a sit-on one, and i found it comfortable compared to the office chair at home.

I have an account with GUR Sewing Machines. I bought my Novum longarm from them, and the service I have received on all my purchases has been excellent; if there is a problem, they email straight back or call, And the luxury of paying over a few months, as the chair is expensive, but you get what you pay for; I bought the one that can go high as I have a bad back and thought when I am at my cutting table, I would be a lot better off not having to stand for a long time.

So, if you are considering buying this chair, I recommend the Horn sewing chair

I love this chair; it is so much better than the office chair I bought. I opted for the tall one so I could use it at my cutting table and not have to stand as much. Having a bad back, I can't stand for long periods. Excellent customer service. i will use GUS for all my crafting needs in the future

My husband saw this on your website and thought it would be a good fit, as I was looking for a new machine. Checked it out as machine site were new to me. Using the site was easy straight forward and quick once placed my order was quick to arrive. On arrival machine was as described and on using exceeded my expectation. Still learning with it but over the moon with it ,can give more info when I've used it more. Also received a courtesy email making sure it arrived which was a nice touch. Looking forward to my new relationship with GUR
