Review: Love my new serger. mine was too old. This one is a basic one but does all I need it to do, and the price is fantastic. It does the basic serging I do. I didn't find it too dificult to thread. All sergers are a pain to thread. It has a nice tension to start out with so no need to change it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How to thread loopers**
A: The easiest way is to tie on to the Looper threads with the new color, run the machine  until the new color is completely through. However sometimes the thread breaks, knot slips, etc. Take the new color thread and run it by the thread you are replacing, or follow the color guidelines, use the tweezers, which came with the machine to get the right spots threaded.

**Q: Can it handle heavy fabrics like denim?**
A: You need bigger needles and you have to be careful on the seams to go slowly.

**Q: Hi! Can I use this machine like sewing machine?**
A: It depends on what your sewing. There are companies like Ellie & Mac that have patterns and video tutorials where 90% of their garments can be sewn on the serger.  You will still need a sewing machine to do hems.

**Q: Can it be used In Europe with 220/240v**
A: Better to get a machine that's made for 220/240V.
