Brother1034D Heavy-Duty Metal Frame Serger, 1,300 Stitches Per Minute, White

After researching overlockers on line, this model got the best rating overall for people just starting out with overlockers. I can't claim any great expertise, but this is a great machine. It is simple to operate and, most importantly, to thread, as this seems to be the biggest problem most people have. It comes with a very clear operating manual which covers all the important points and, even better, a DVD which actually demonstrates how it all works. Early days for me, but so far, I have managed to successfully accomplish basic sewing and have easily rethreaded the machine. It has a lot of features which are going to be very useful as I gain experience. I am not currently using it to its full potential, but that is down to my limitations, not those of the machine. I would recommend this overlocker to anyone who wants a foolproof basic machine.

So happy with my purchase! Fast delivery. Great product easy to follow instructions! I had never used an over locker before and yet had no problem getting right into it! Looking forward to discovering all the creative possibilities this machine has to offer.

Seems a good quality overlocker although I've only been practising on spare fabric until I get up the courage to make an actual garment. Forget the instruction manual and dvd and try YouTube for easier to understand instructions. Didn't include a trimmings catcher but an empty small Ferrero Roche box fits perfectly!

looked for second overlocker for my sewing room. checked a lot of models, (the first one is jaguar 096, which one is a little bit pricey). decided to try this model, as it has very good reviews. so far-very happy with purchase, working fast and quiet, very easy to change threads. highly recommended for everyone, even for beginners.

Arrived very prompt.Good value .A very good addition to my sewing equipment.I should have bought one years ago.Very pleased.Easy to use if you are familiar to threading a straight stitch machine .

A very good overlocker for the price, rethreading takes a little while ( but i tend to use only one colour thread ) Comes with a comprehensive manual......My machine did not, so i down loaded from a known web site.

brilliant machine beat my old singer overlocker hands down, quieter, easy to thread and controls/settings easy to understand and use.

Very pleased with this purchase. Bought this for my daughter who makes her own clothes she is well impressed! Item arrived very quickly and gets plenty of use.
