Don't really know what I'm doing, but.......

I recently begun sewing and purchased the CS6000I. It was such an amazing sewing machine that when someone in class mentioned I needed a serger, I without hesitation, purchased the 1034D.
I have rethreaded it, run some practice pieces on it and cannot wait to do my scarfs as gifts for people!
I am really impressed with Brother products!

I am happy with the purchase, but the serger is very noisy.

Finally, purchased a serger!

I always wanted one for hemming, and finishing seams. I was scared reading all the reviews about the threading and using the machine. I didn't have a problem-watched a video on threading while I was threading mine. It was easy!

Best serger I have ever used! So easy and always sews perfectly. Have only had my serger a few months and not tried out all the features, but really impressed so far.

Best Serger Ever

Years ago I tried another serger brand, it was so complicated it went back to the store. Needless to say I was very Leary of ever trying another serger, but I am so glad I gave the 1034D a try.
I love this serger, it is so easy to use.
I highly recommend this serger to first time user, you won't be sorry you gave it a try.

Nice serger for the price

I was looking for an inexpensive serger to use at my sewing group. This was an excellent choice. It is relatively lightweight and easy to use. I haven't tried all the features yet but so far I'm impressed with how well it gathers and the ease of adjusting the stitches. My only complaint is that the lower loopers are a little difficult to thread but that may be because I'm learning a new machine after using my trusty 20+ year-old serger. So far, I'm pleased with my purchase.

Good Machine

This is my first ever serger. I picked this machine based on the rating of others and cost. So far this is an excellent serger. My only word of caution is threading. I needed to re thread my serger. I thought that I had everything exactly as the directions in the manual showed. I had everything except where the tail for the lower looper spot on. As so many out there know- the devil is in the smallest details. That tiny error on my part kept my serger from making it's stitch correctly. In my defense I think that Brother could and should make a better diagram/picture of how each step should be. (Thankfully I have an amazing friend that set me straight.) So with the exception of how I feel about Brother's manual I feel that their serger earns 5 stars based on performance and cost.

I bought my 1034D two months ago, after years of wanting a serger. I did some review checking and thought this was my best and most economic option at this time. It took me 6 weeks to open the box. I read the suggested Serger Handbook by Chris James, front to back, as soon as it arrived but I was a bit intimidated about threading the machine. Well I did it Monday, this is Thursday and I am not kidding when I tell you I have spent probably 30 hours using the machine. I had a lot of catching up to do and a lot of projects on the table. I am thoroughly enjoying it. Only thing I see negative is one of the small spool tops was missing from the original spools of thread on the machine when I unpacked. I will need to get one. Also think I should be looking for a case for this as well. Thanks Brother. I am a Singer and Pfaff owner previously. Now this Brother is a welcome addition.
