Built-In Stitches (13)Choose from a variety of stitches for basic sewing, decorative sewing, and more

Four-Step ButtonholeButtonholes are sewn in four easy steps, clearly displayed on the Stitch Selector Dial.

Front Loading Bobbin

Built-In Thread CutterTrim both the top and bobbin threads with the touch of a button. No need to draw up the bobbin thread to start sewing again.

Darning PlatePlace the darning plate into position over the machine's feed teeth, which prevents the feed teeth from coming in contact with the fabric. Use this for free-motion sewing like stipple quilting, monograms and even for sewing on buttons.

Easy Stitch Selection DialBuilt-in stitches are displayed on the Stitch Selector Dial. Simply turn the dial to select the stitch you want to sew.

Adjustable Stitch LengthCustomize the appearance of a stitch by increasing or decreasing the distance between stitches. Use this function for various stitch techniques like applique, basting and more.

Adjustable Stitch Width (5mm)The size of the stitch from left to right is adjustable, to make the stitch sew narrower or wider as desired.

Reverse (Lever)Sew stitches in reverse, usually done to secure a seam at the beginning and end to prevent unraveling.

Heavy Duty Metal FrameThe machine's interior frame is metal, providing long lasting durability

High Speed Stitching (750/min)

Professional speed for faster results.

Free ArmSlide off the Removable Storage Compartment for access to the free arm, making it easy to sew trouser hems, sleeve cuffs and other smaller or tubular projects

Snap-On Presser FeetPresser feet can be easily removed and attached when needed for various sewing techniques

Extra High Pressor Foot LifterPresser foot has an extra high position available to accommodate thick fabrics.

Variable Needle PositionsAdjust position of needle as desired for various sewing techniques like topstitching, edge stitching, zipper application, piping insertion and more

Twin-Needle FunctionFor stitches other than the straight stitch, this function reduces stitch width for sewing with a twin needle so the needles clear the presser foot while sewing.

Bobbin Class (15 Transparent)SINGER or INSPIRA branded bobbins are recommended for best results

JUKI DDL-8700 FAQs

What kind of needles do you use in the DDL-8700?

The needles with your JUKI are the Organ DBx1, available on our website. This machine uses size 16×257, size 8 through 20 or 16×97. The 8700 can also use standard needles, sizes 9 through 21, universal or fabric-specific needles such as knit.

Where does the machine oil go?

A pan directly underneath the machine supplies oil to the machine with a cotton wick. Lift the machine up and over to access the oil tank while on the table. You must keep the machine’s oil level consistently at the «high» mark, either by adding more oil or draining it and refilling it as needed. If the oil pump can’t get the oil into the machine, it can cause serious problems later.

What kind of oil does this machine require?

You need a specific type, like motor oil in your car, to keep this machine running. The DDL-8700 requires JUKI New Defrix Oil No.1, equivalent to ISO VG7.

What size table can I get with this machine?

Our table has legs and is 22"w x 47"l. It includes a knee and foot pedals and a left-hand drawer for accessories.

Does the DDL 8700 make buttonholes?

No. The 8700 only does straight stitching, with a horizontal bar on the right side for a reverse stitch.
