In stock at urbantufting.com

The DT-I Tufting Gun from Urban Tufting is a 2-in-1 rug tufting machine that switches between cut pile and loop pile, combining what the AK-I and AK-II do separately. It weighs 3 lbs, runs from 5 to 45 stitches per second on a speed dial and works on 100 to 240V, which suits rug makers who want both pile styles from one gun.

Highlights

  • Converts between cut pile (7 to 19 mm) and loop pile (4 to 14 mm); ships set up for cut pile
  • Integrated speed dial from 5 to 45 stitches per second
  • Aluminum and tempered steel construction, 3 lbs (1.4 kg)
  • Universal 100 to 240V, 50/60 Hz input; choose your plug type at checkout
  • 1-year warranty on motor, gearbox and logic board, plus 12 months of free blade sharpening (up to 2 times)

Best for

Rug tufters who want cut and loop pile from a single machine instead of buying two guns.

Things to consider

  • Free sharpening is limited to two services in 12 months, and you pay shipping both ways.
  • Converting from cut to loop uses the included tools; plan on a learning curve if you are new to tufting.
  • You still need a tufting frame, primary cloth and yarn, which are not included.

Our take

The most flexible gun in Urban Tufting's lineup and priced about the same as the cut-only AK-I. If you might ever want loop pile, this is the one to get.

Buying from Urban Tufting

Urban Tufting covers everything a beginner rug tufter needs in one place, from a $289.99 starter kit to cut-and-loop guns, frames, spare needles, and dozens of yarn colors. The big caution is that its shipping, return, and warranty pages didn't show any actual policy text when we checked, so get those terms in writing from the store before buying a $250+ tufting gun. Pay with a card that offers purchase protection.
