Ideal for sewing decorative and finishing stitches on linens, formal wear, and stretchy fabric, this 3/4 serger from Brother includes 22 built-in stitch functions and interchangeable creative feet. Stitch functions include 3-thread overlock, 4-thread overlock, narrow hemming, rolled hemming, and ribbon lock. The machine can also be used to form gentle gathers, join laces, sew spaghetti straps, and create fabric flowers for formal gowns. Its color-coded set up is convenient, quick, and straightforward, and the foot pedal offers sensitive speed control. For added efficiency and precision, the machine includes stitch width control, outside differential feed control, lay-in threading, the F.A.S.T. lower looper threading system, and an easy-to-remove stitch finger for narrow or rolled edges. It calls for standard sewing machine needles, and its flat surface converts to free arm for pant hems and cuffs.
The serger comes with a full set of starter accessories, including a soft cover, a blind hem/multipurpose guide foot, a gathering foot, and a set of needles. A removable trim trap and a cleaning brush keep operation tidy. Additional feet are available separately for creating blind hem, pin tuck, and flat lock stitching. Brother includes a thorough instruction booklet with this model as well as CD-ROMs for operation tips and techniques. The machine carries a five-year limited warranty. --Emily Bedard

"Easy to use" 2010-05-14
By Tweety Bird
I have sewn for years on a regular machine, but have always been hesitant to buy a serger because of the cost, and because I have seen how hard they are to thread correctly. However, this one caught my attention because the reviews said it was easy to use, & because of the low price, I was willing to take a chance. The reviews are accurate. It comes already threaded, so you can start sewing right away. After I read the instruction book and watched the handy CDs, I was able to make two pairs of pants immediately, and was able to thread the machine correctly on my first try, with only a bit of puzzling about the loopers. It's really quite simple and fast, a pleasant surprise. The accessory bag did not have a screwdriver, but the instruction book said that it was included. I would recommend this for anyone learning how to serge.

By R. Gupta (California)
I purchased this serger based on the reviews. I was not disappointed, this machine is easy to use,and quiet. I had never used a serger before and found it easy to learn and operate. Finished my project- 25 table toppers made of raw silk. They came out beautiful and look professional.The reviewers were correct!!!!!!! This machine is great, can't wait to start a new project.


"Great value!!!" 2010-05-03
By T. Childers (Utah)
I love my new serger! There are so many features that this one has that I never dreamed I would be able to get on the money I had budgeted to spend on a serger. I had to thread it, and I did it! I also like the fact you can use regular sewing machine needles with this model, plus it came with lots of extras. The cd's are very helpful in learning all the things you can do.

First serger I have ever owned or used and so far I am quite pleased with my purchase. Directions in the book and on the discs is pretty clear. A seam guide that is more clearly marked would be appreciated.
