Does anyone own or have experience with a ricoma? If so, what are the pros/cons, and your opinion?
Thanks!

Yes, you are right on the money. They can leave all the nasty comments of breif
slams, but offer nothing to back up slams or statements.
Its odd, how cowardly some can be. You have no idea of who these people are.
It could be a teenager, old person, or some one that does not have a life other
than to try to stir up the pot and cause suspictions and troubles.
It goes without saying, why do they do this, other than bordum or just trying to
get potenial customers totally confused.
Or just maybe on the other hand, it was it posted by a competitor of the Ricoma Brand.
I have also researced this a bit and found it to be true from time to time. These
negative post were posted by well recognized name brands and I was very disappointed
in there tactics of cowardly accusations, hiding behind fake names and handles.
I have represented this line and have many happy customers and testimonials on my
website. I take good care of my customers and contacts. These machines are made of
the best materials, perform great and run side by side with some of the best recognized names out there, keeping pace , beat by beat, stitch for stitch.
There well may be dealers that may carry this brand that do not back up what they have agreed to do, and this is the problem that may occur from time to time with this brand and any other machine manufacture out there.
There is no way to stop blogs, post, arguments on any of these forums as they are not policed in any way, shape or form, so it should be up the the reader of these forums to form there own opinion by further research.
Its to bad that some people actually believe all that they may read, but , hey, thats what this freedom is all about anyway, is it not.

If you go to his profiles, looks like this guy only refers to what he has
heard to make his claims or posts. Does not look as though he has never
used one, purchase one, had hands on experience with one or even
seen one run. Seems to be Melcom dealer or just loves the Melco line
( Amaya ) . Yes , I heard the moon is made out of green cheese, but is it
really? Statements made by this guy in most of his 22 post are pure bull
crap. He is always interested in giving his advice, but base on nothing, nothing
at all..........just what he has heard, which was probably his breaking wind.

To be honest with you. Read the boards and people will give you feedback about a machine. i can quote some users on this board who dont like the brand ricoma. i'm not to put the product down but read what other users say about them. And paccodist i own a variety of machines and know alot of people with other embroidery machines. And ill be honest with you. i dont love the melco line infact i had 4 xt's that i sold for well lets say im not going to make accusations again because i dont want someone from melco up my rear like someone from ricoma is. Everyone had an opinion but i think all the experienced people know what machines to stay from.

Ya I know... I for one would love to see ANY post on here or elsewhere of someone with direct (first person) knowledge of a Ricoma and say something bad about it. Personally I have never heard on here about good or bad about Ricoma from ANYONE that has one.

So who knows, they could be great machines...
