Where it fits in the decision
A useful comparison with the HD3000 includes controls, included accessories and the wider sewing tasks you need. Do not assume a domestic walking-foot attachment converts either model to compound feed. For repeated demanding leather assemblies, compare the operating range with a dedicated industrial option.

Before choosing this listing
The HD1000 listing belongs in a household-machine comparison, particularly when the buyer also needs to sew ordinary fabric projects. The fourteen-stitch description indicates part of its feature offering, but leather suitability depends on the actual construction and documented setup. A small leather item can contain a demanding seam despite its compact finished size.
Prepare a test that includes the thickest overlap and the lightest visible section. Look for an acceptable finish on both rather than selecting a setup that solves one by damaging the other. If the machine requires pushing or pulling the leather, pause and reassess. A different needle can address some stitch problems but cannot change the machine’s basic operating class.
When comparing the HD1000 with the HD3000 package, note controls, included feet, storage needs, and support. Ask a supplier to distinguish these features without implying an undocumented leather-capacity progression between model numbers. For frequent bags or upholstery, compare a suitable industrial demonstration as a separate option so the household comparison does not hide a different equipment need.
