"I have never had a sewing machine before. This is my first. It’s an incredible machine. Even though I’m a novice, I rather quickly figure out how to use it. The instruction booklet was well designed and thoughtfully written so that anyone can get started quickly. Weaver is a great company to do business with and I appreciate the effort they have put into their products."
"My Cub arrived yesterday in good order. It was shipped in sturdy packaging and arrived at my remote/rural location within a week of placing my order. Right out of the box I was able to lay down flawless stitch lines on the stack of test leather shipped with the machine. I very much look forward to bringing this machine to bear on planned knife sheath and holster projects. The stitch lines are pretty enough for belts as well. On the test stitch lines I performed the machine sewed effortlessly, and build quality and quality of materials was quickly evident. This machine is worthy of passing down to my heirs."
"All I can say is wow! What a machine. I’m so glad I held out till yall this back in stock and didn’t get the other leather sewing machine out there. I’m really happy either way this, the only thing I didn’t like was the price BUT “buy right or buy twice”😳 so, I had to get this one. Plus, I did some research and as that it was made by the Amish?? 😳oh yeah, a must have👍🏽"
"Been using the Cub for a couple months on knife sheaths and works great. Very easy to work through 4 layers of 9 oz leather."
"This thing makes projects much easer to complete."
"Perform beautifully right out of the box. I just have to educate my self on using it properly. It is a heavy well-made machine and John covered just about everything I had to know but now I have to work on my muscle memory and using it. It seems to like thicker Leather rather than a thinner. The only thing I could recommend for this sewing machine is a light somehow incorporated on it other then a light it a great well made heavy duty sewing machine. The folks at the store were great to deal with and John was very knowledgeable and a great instructor. I am very happy with this purchase and I would recommend this machine to anyone that’s looking for a good American made sewing machine. Thanks again for all the help John Montini."
"Received it in about 4 days. Packaged very securely to prevent damage during shipping. Came with a full bobbin and enough top thread to show how to thread the machine. Built well and solid. Everything about it is quality. Obviously no shortcuts were taken in its manufacture. The edge guide is sturdy and very simple to adjust or move out of the way completely. Stowage of the tools on the top back is nice so I can get to them easily and don’t have to worry about misplacing them. I used 4 square pieces of 12oz leather underneath in the 4 corners for feet like suggested in Weaver’s video online and they worked perfectly. Was able to sew right out of the box after I put my own thread in it. The very first thing I sewed was a stack of scrap veg tan that was 3/4” thick. It sailed through the stack easily and required no tension adjustment at all. I then sewed 2 straps of 9oz veg tan together with the same ease and, again, no adjustments. The hand cranking is not an issue unless you’re doing something big like a belt with a lot of stitching. But even then it’s tolerable. Highly recommend it for small and medium jobs. Can’t speak to large jobs since I don’t do any. Overall I’m very pleased with it and have no reservations about recommending it to others."
"I found this leather sewing machine awesome. It took me a moment to understand the correlation between stitch width, tension and fabric thickness but switching the settings is so easy."
"very pleased with the Cub, performs better then expected and my expectations were high"
"First, I have been dealing with Weaver since 1994. They are A+. The Weaver Cub is my go to machine ever since I received it. And I have 3 other machines. So simple to set up for a project, easy to run, no headaches. It just works."
