Solid Coverstitch Machine!
Really like this solid coverstitch machine. (One small con I didn't think was enough to reduce rating - the lights above the sewing plate are very VERY bright. I simply put a light yellow sticky note over the light case and it solved the problem.)This machine is well built and sturdy, even though the outside case is plastic. I have found the recommended tension markings to be very close to what I actually had the machine at for the various stitches. Keep in mind this is NOT a serger. It only does 4 stitches, which for a coverstitch machine is all I need. If you are familiar with the manual threading of a serger, this threading will be a piece of cake. No problems so far and success in making my first "professional" looking knit garment!Definitely recommend this simple, but solid machine!

Great Coverstitch Machine!
Very happy with this purchase with so many of today's fashions using coverstitch, so it was a must have machine in my sewing room. I like the optional accessories, especially the clear foot for matching up the stop stitches with the starting stitches. Threading was easy for me too. The only drawback is not being built with a free arm, but I found no problem using it for hemming pant legs.

Presser foot
Don't know what I did wrong, but the presser foot once removed is extremely difficult to put back on. Sliding it forward and sideways to no avail. Frustrating! Eventually, as if by magic, it went back on.

Smooth like butter
Honestly it was challenging at first but once you get the hang of it,it'll get easier. If you are familiar with a serger than you'll get use to it more quickly. Definitely works beautifully and it's just what I needed. Beautiful!!!

Small footprint and easy to thread.
It is a reasonable price compare to other brands. It looks like an excellent machine. The exterior is plastic, like any other brand.Easy to thread. It is not an automatic thread, but it is not complicated at all.I tested it when I got it two days ago. I am waiting for the weekend to try it more.

I wanted to love it
But it was too complicated to thread, and the only helpful video online was in Swedish.
