Passenger vans, such as the Ford Transit and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, are designed explicitly for carrying larger groups. They typically provide maximum seating capacity and often have more cargo space than standard minivans. Their rugged construction is apt for commercial uses, making them ideal for shuttle services and family vacations alike.
One of the primary advantages of using the double needle stretch stitch is its durability. Traditional straight stitches may break when sewing on stretchy materials because they do not have the ability to stretch. The double needle stretch stitch, on the other hand, provides the necessary give, allowing for comfortable movement in garments. This is particularly important in activewear, dance costumes, and other garments designed for dynamic activities.
II. Choosing the Right Heavy Duty Sewing Machine

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 116,220 professionals use sewing machines in their work[1].

However, you don’t need to be a professional to benefit from a heavy-duty sewing machine's increased speed and longevity. But before spending a small fortune on an industrial-type sewing machine, ask yourself some questions to see if a lower-cost portable sewing machine may be a better choice.
