Jun 17, 2026 I am selling this Toyota Expert ESP 9000 Embroidery machine after having only used it about 6 times in the last 6 months. I wanted a hobby when I retired and decided on embroidery. I didn't do my homework or else I would have clearly seen that this machine was an industrial/commercial, heavy duty, and high-volume output embroidery machine. It's way too much machine for an embroidery hobbyist like me. I had the expert Toyota Embroidery Machine Repair Man do a full and complete maintenance on it. He said that this machine is in mint condition and stitches like it was new.
The Toyota Expert ESP 9000 Embroidery Machine is a high-quality, electronic-controlled machine with a single head and 15 needles, designed for professional embroidery applications. Made in Japan, this unit offers precision and efficiency for all your embroidery needs. Perfect for businesses in the textile and apparel industry, this machine is a reliable and durable option for creating intricate designs with ease.
