Easy to thread and the auto tension works fantastic at all speeds and with different threads and fabrics. Highly recommend for the novice to the professional user. A treasure of features waiting to be discovered.
I bought this machine in 2011. The manual that came with it needs improvement the instructions are not complete and the illustrations are confusing and missing steps. That being said once I learned the machine love it. Still going great though it's time to have it serviced
I have been using my machine over a year now and it is perfect! It does everything I need and more! I have done clean seams and hems. It was easy to set up and use.
I bought this machine about 7-8 years ago. It took a little bit to learn how the machine operates but it was so very worth it. I currently have a Baby Lock Triumph but that is only due to the air threading and if a thread breaks you didn’t have to rethread the entire machine. Other than that i think this singer Serger takes the cake on it’s beautiful seams and the knife cuts like butter giving your finished edge that sleek look. If they made this machine in an air threaded model i would so buy it again. I really dread using my baby lock bc it just doesn’t come out nearly as clean and smooth. Lesson learned.
I purchased this machine in September 2023. I am fully self taught on sewing. I purchased the 5 thread machine because I thought down the road I may need to use 5 threads. I received the machine in September 2023 & didn’t take it out of the box till November. Once you understand how to thread the machine it’s simple. Singer has taken the guess work out of the tension settings. This machine saves hours of sewing with the single needle machine. This serger has made me a better sewing person & has boosted my confidence. I also own the Singer HD 6800C the two make a great pair. I also didn’t get the free feet as a perk but, did get a bonus Iron. Do not be intimidated by this unit. It is simple
I purchased this machine in September of 2023. Didn’t open the box until November. I have never used a serger & am still learning a lot about this machine but I am very glad I purchased the 5 thread machine. It took a while to learn the threading & different ways to use this machine but now it’s simple. Singer took all the guess work out of the tension & threading once you understand how to do it it’s simple. I love the machine.
