Pros: 3/4 thread, simple to thread, quality brand

Cons: can't do everything--no serger can

The Bottom Line: For a low-cost serger, this machine can't be beat!

Review: Introduction

I have it so easy. About a month ago my husband and I were laying in bed one morning, trying to ignore the fact that our kids were up and demolishing our house—that’s what Saturdays are for.

Anyway, as I’m...

Pros: Threading, price, ease of use

Cons: no coverstitch (on expensive models)-you may not miss it - twin needle for same look

Review: This serger works great, and has a great price too. Several feet are included (check to make sure not a promotion) and others are available for purchase. There are about 6 available feet, not the dozens available for top line sergers. I would advise test ...

Pros: Inexpensive and easy to use

Cons: None that I've found!

Review: I've had this serger for about 3 weeks now. What a dream to sew on. You can't beat it for the price. I bought it at Amazon for $199.00. I've been making baby blankets with an awesome finished edge. I never owned a serger before and this was a ...

Pros: Cheap, cheap, cheap, lots of function for price, fast, quiet

Cons: Instructional CD's not so helpful, no cover stitch

The Bottom Line: This is a nice machine for the price and we get a ton of use out of it in this house.

Review: The Brother 1034D….. A great serger to have around…. This is a great serger for someone with general home sewing needs! It is inexpensive and has a ton of features for the money. We have had it in our home for about two ...

Pros: Price, good manual, easy threading

Cons: a little loud

The Bottom Line: Highly recommend for beginner to intermediate sewer. The manual is clear and well illustrated, the price is right, and it sews fine stiches.

Review: I bought this serger because it was within my budget, and I trust the Brother name. I have been very pleased.

I sew garments for myself and my daughter and it has made this a pleasure it is so easy to use.

1. Threading - a snap,...

Pros: Easy to thread, Easy to use

Cons: Removing one needle is not easy. Rolled hems only work well on certain fabrics.

The Bottom Line: This is a great product for the advanced home sewer. Definitely worth the money. A great addition for any home sewer.

Review: Pros: Great serger. Does everything that the non-professional could need. Easy to use, easy to set up, does not require prior serger experience. Cutting blade does not need to be sharpened frequently. Deals with heavy weight fabrics without any...

Pros: Easy to use, low cost.

Cons: Can be finicky about settings. Must be EXACT in order to achieve correct stitch.

Review: This serger is wonderful. I have yet to try something on it that it cannot do. I got this machine two years ago, and it has held up quite nicely. As far as the review about the rolled hem, I have tried this, and I have not had any problems. ...

Pros: Cheap, threads easy, good three and four thread over lock, and comes with a video.

Cons: Marginally adequate rolled hem, came with no oil, and low quality presser feet.

The Bottom Line: The 1034D Brother serger lacks overall quality. Though the over lock stitches are adequate, I would not recommend this machine to anyone, beginner or otherwise who can afford better.

Review: About two months ago, I was bitten by an overwhelming desire to serge. I sew for pleasure and to make gifts for friends and family members. I'm very interested in heirloom sewing, own a basic embroidery machine, and enjoy the idea of making home...

Pros: Easy to thread, color coded system, easily adjustable foot tension

Cons: Not reliable, no storage for accessories

The Bottom Line: Don't waist your time buying this machine!

Review: This serger is total crap! I bought it so that I can do my school project at home instead of walking to the school everyday. It works fine one day, put it down, and the next day, I'll pick it up to do a school project, and it won't work! No one's ...
