In this video, we go in-depth to discuss some of the major points to consider before taking the plunge and buying your first embroidery machine.
We outline several financial tips to keep in mind, and how to think about your budgetary needs in the present and future so you can make the best decision for yourself and your wallet.
We'll also explain one of the most important factors when buying an embroidery machine: that it’s not so much the machine itself but what comes with it. Many companies try to sell you on a machine that requires you to buy a lot of expensive add-ons just to do your everyday work, so it’s crucial to find a machine that comes with an all-inclusive package.
As a new embroiderer you’re going to have to navigate the learning curve when it comes to mastering your new machine. To help you cut your learning curve in half, we'll show you a few resources you can use to learn at your own pace as you begin your custom apparel journey.

I need you people contact am interesting with your machine
YES! How this Tesla makes petrol car sounds?
Nice
Gratitude! I’m energized and inspired to follow my heart!!!
We are rooting for you!
I just purchased my first embroidery machine! The PV-1501. I will receive it next thursday.🎉🎉🎉
Congrats! We are so happy you have joined the Ricoma family!
very informative
We appreciate the love!
Nice video! Good explained and of course good selling points. I have been looking into ricoma for a while now and at first was thinking about the 1010 (because so far it's just me and my home crafting and sewing world) but I would also love to make some bigger items for friends and family (just for fun and to bring a smile to people who need it). But maybe later (far down the road) even make some money with my projects. So I was also looking into the 1501. I was impressed with the costumer service, the free shipping that is offered, the stand that it comes with (all those selling points you had compared to the brother machine)!!! Great offers, but some of those selling points sadly do NOT apply for us here in Germany. I was very sad and dissapointed. The stand does NOT come included with the 1010! No free shipping here! Only free pick-up! And also, the software is not included in either one of those machines. And last but not least no 24/7 customer service unless I call the US number (not sure if that would be for free then!) and the wonderful (by praised) training is only free as long as I go to the place the trainer is at. If the trainer comes to my place I have to pay or the km he/she travels. That was really a shock. Anyway! I still think it's a good machine! I still think there should not be such huges differences in the offeres for other countries!
Hi Gabi. We totally understand how you feel, and we will be sure to pass this down to the team for review. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help.
@@ricomatv Wow! You are so kind to even answer my post. Thank you! I don't think you can do anything for me. I guess your machine will continue to be a dream for me( but I will still be watching your videos). But if you are really that confident in your machine, service etc. you should have the same quality everywhere. I my mind every customer is important (everywhere). So "BE FAIR EVERYWHERE".
Do you all have any videos of the machines being used to create a design from start to finish? I am shopping around for an embroidery machine as well as the best method of production for my brand. Thanks for this video, it was very useful in my research!
We do! Check out our CZcams channel, we have tons of tutorials from start to finish.
Good info!!! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
My bf has a business. In the past he got an embroidery business to put his logo on shirts but we have moved far away and its not practical anymore. What machine would be a good option to get his business logo embroidered on to golf shirts/hoodies etc? His logo is 4 inches long and 1.5 inches wide.
Hi there! We totally understand how that goes, check out our sister brand Garmeo. They do embroidery/printing and ship it directly to you! ---->www.garmeo.com/
So much good information
Glad it was helpful!
Very interesting!! Is the table included with ricoma EM1010?
If you’re referring to the stand, yes it’s included. If you’re referring to the embroidery table to support your garments, that’s an optional accessory add on. Hope this helps
I wish I had this embroidery machine man
Hi! We are here whenever you are ready (:
Hello !!! Thanks for the information. I am from India and planning for EM-1010 as a startup business but your Indian sales dealer is pushing us for SWD-1501 and even selling design software separately. Told us the software is not bundled with the machine. Can you please let me know if the software is included or not with the machine?
Hi there, the software is only included if you are in the USA.
I'm 16 and have about 1.5k saved up, and I want to start a buisness for friends and family, as well as hopefully an online buisness. What do you recomend?
Get your credit into a good situation and apply for financing so you can use the money you saved up towards making the monthly payments. Then hustle and make sure you don’t have to use your reserves for making the payments but that your business can be self sustaining
@@ricomatv when do 16yo have credit
Get a credit card under parents with small limit and pay it off monthly and build credit
i recently just bought the brother SE630 for 430$ and a bunch of materials on sale for around... alot but still we are making a bunch of random products for $1000, while the prototypes are shabby, last night we made a pretty good pair of pajamas and i can embroider the smaller 4x4s all over it if i wanted, while that is limited to sewing and small embroidery i figured its enough to advertise the idea to everyone i know and have had around 10 people interested so far. Been doing this for 2 weeks so I'd say its a good start. Although next year i was hoping to get into wood, plastics, fabrics, lazered, and almost anything requested because of my degrees and machines, 21 but the crap I'm jumping into is nuts lmao.
@@andinicesar He can get a secured credit card and use that to build his credit .
I know that this is a question that could be redundant and people that are using Ricoma machine should know how to do the basics, but has the industry created a automatic treader for industrial machines or has created something where it’s easier to thread a needle and do it manuallyjust curiosity thank you
Hi Juan! There isn't an automatic threader at this time, BUT this would be a great idea!
I want to order ricoma machine but i dont which one i should start with and and how to order this machine, can you give me some advice on it.😅
Hi! Please submit a request to our team so they can help > ricoma.com/US/contact-us
I'm so interested and getting a ricoma multi needle but kinda of scared do to not many customer yet. So should I build client first or take a leap of faith.
If you’re going to commit time to the craft and to your business, you are bound to see some results. Make sure you’re comfortable with the low monthly payments even if you don’t get customers for a couple of months to make sure it’s within your budget.
Very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Is EM 1010 available in Hongkong? How much Sir? I’m a simple individual who is obsessed with patches. It’s a beautiful art.
Hi! Our embroidery machines are available worldwide. You can submit a request to get in touch with a product specialist through this link --->ricoma.com/US/contact-us
How much
Hi there, please submit a request with our team so they can help! ----> ricoma.com/US/contact-us
If only the prices were listed so it was easier to make a decision online, there are so many options and I’m not sure what exactly what I need. I have a budget of 10k and plan to use my machine to embroider on shoes, hats, back pack and up to 5x in US size clothing
Hi Karina! We would love to help you pick out the perfect machine, submit a request with the team --->ricoma.com/US/contact-us
I researched your Company. Ricoma is made in China, but why does it have a Japanese name? I am very hesitant to buy this machine because of where it is made?
We are an American company based out of Miami, Florida, and own our own factory in China, like Apple! So, we have full control of the quality and R&D of our products. For more information about our machines, please contact us here > ricoma.com/US/contact-us
Can I use Hatch software for Ricoma?
Yes
I have 10k saved up and no experience or whatsoever in clothing . I wanna start a Shopify store and have goals of scaling up big . T shirts hats everything even shoes. What machine should I get
Hi! We are so glad to hear about your success, please submit a request with the team so they can help! ---> ricoma.com/US/contact-us
An EM-1010 would fit in your budget but for scaling and hats/shoes and more, probably a TC-1501 or MT-1501 would be best fit
@@ricomatv thanks
So much 🤎
Am interesting with your machine how can i get your contact
Hi! You can submit a form to get in touch with a product specialist ---> ricoma.com/US/contact-us
If he's the owner damn what a guy
Thanks for watching, Antonio!
I should of bought a Ricoma.
Hi! Let us know if you would like to speak a product specialist, it's never too late :) ----> ricoma.com/US/contact-us
Best machine to design hats? Nothing to complex simple letters and designs.
Hi! We recommend the MT1501, but ultimately it depends on your business model.
