Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best-selling in Sewing Machines
As a starter machine I don't think you could do better. It'll do two types of stitch (using three or four threads) and once it's been threaded the first time you can change thread colour just by attaching the new threads to the old ones and pulling them through. Easy, apart from having to just rethread through the one or two needles, but you can get needle threading gadgets to help with this. The differential feed is a bonus for helping to stretch jersey sewing to keep the seams straight, or for putting frills into hems if you want to. It has everything else you'd expect: adjusters for stitch width & length, and a knife which cuts the material to the right width to fill the overlock stitching exactly. You can stitch with the knife swung out of use if you want. The manual is good with helpful advice on how to set up the best thread tensions for various materials. The stitching produced is excellent; even with no missed stitches. The only thing missing is a thread cutter which means you have to keep a pair of scissors handy to cut your work away from the machine at the end of each stitch run but this is only a minor quibble.Read full review
