Not a bad machine
on April 1, 2015

This has been a nice little machine so far. I only had some problems with threading the machine, as I couldn't quite understand the diagrams for the underlooper, but once I got it figured out, it was smooth sailing from there.
I've already sewn on a variety of different fabrics without any problems and am enjoying the different variations of stitches I can sew. It has been fairly easy to use and is very user friendly. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

First Serger Bought
on January 4, 2016
Posted by: GrandmaBP
I bought this serger because of the great reviews on it. This is my first one and I am very happy with all that it does. It is very easy to thread. All of my seams look great now. I wish I had bought one years ago. It would have saved me many hours in getting a project done. I look forward to many years of sewing with it.

First time serger user. Had read other reviews of this model and decided to purchase. I do agree it's a bit noisy but works well.

Brother 1034D

The best thing I can say about the serger is that stitch is very good. The video provided with the machine is a good idea, except the viewing window is way to small. Especially the threading videos on the the loopers. Your video was to small and to dark. I had to go to You Tube to get a better view to seeing how to thread them. I'm also concerned about how noisy the machine is. I listen to a audio book while I'm sewing and can't hear it as long as I'm sewing and the CD player is only setting 2 feet from me. This is my biggest worry about the machine. The other concen I have is you have to push pretty hard on the foot pedal it get the serger to start sewing and sometimes I have to give the hand wheel a turn to get it to start. I have been sewing on it since I received it and this is not my first serger. I bought my first serger in 1985 and have been using is constantly until about a month or so ago. I use a serger a lot more than my regular sewing machine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Happy so Far
on December 13, 2014
Posted by: Jans
I had never used a serger but sew on a regular basis. I ordered this one as I didn't want to have too large of an investment and reviews were good. So I gave it a try. I have found it to be very easy to use. I have even had to rethread it twice and from what I was told that is the most difficult part of a serger. The guide/numbering made rethreading a snap. I can say that for a beginner this was a great buy!

easy to use

I had always thought sergers were too complicated. I bought my machine used from a local dealer and got two one-hour free lessons included. The threading is very easy, just follow the color guidelines. With the lessons, and the manual, I have been able to successfully learn to use the serger. So far I use it to finish seams on garments and drapes. but plan to try some of the other options.
