   I was truly amazed with this machine! I have been sewing for years and thought there was a catch when I read the reviews, but beleive me there aren’t any. In this day and age some times it is hard to take someone else’s word but this is not the case!!! This machine is the answer to a beginners prayers and also amazing to and old hand like mine. With our economy today people should get back to basics, like sewing for the family even if it is just a fleece hat, you can’t imagine how children would appreciate something made by Mom or Dad. Go for it, your worth it. The price was the lowest I found.

   This serger is a great serger to start with!!! I have never used a serger before and love it! Very easy to thread and use. The CD’s & manual are very good. The first night I used it, I learned to thread it, do a rolled hem, 4 thread serge, and use the gathering foot it comes with! I highly recommend this serger!

   Like some, I bought this serger based on many positive reviews. Having never used one before I had no idea what to expect.

   I approached the machine with timidity; afraid that I would mess it up or that I had just wasted money on something I would not be able to use.

   You have to understand that I was a (shhhh) Singer-user for a number of years, and although my dh says it’s statistically impossible, I say that I tore out more stitches than I sewed in! (If anyone is looking for a machine with a self-minded tension, I have one. CHEAP.)

   All of those latent fears came back when, NOT ONE, but FOUR thread tensions stared back at me. I put the machine in a chair in a corner of my sewing room with a blanket tossed over it. Just to keep it safe.

   However, several weeks later, I was “forced” into using it when a designer/friend asked me to help her out with some draperies for a client that were overdue. I took a deep breath, peeked under the blanket (darn, still there) and got out my box of scrap material. I decided it was Now or Never. I had to run through the video a few times and read and re-read the booklet. (BTW, If you’ve misplaced your DVD, Joannaglass has put the series on YouTube.) By trial and error I got the machine threaded right! I began serging my scraps. Then I looked for more scraps. lol. I became a believer, hallelujah!

   I was a serging maniac. I did such a good job on the draperies, my friend offered me a seamstress job. I won’t say that that was due to the serger because I have been sewing for a few years, but my confidence is built up.

   So, ladies (and gentlemen), dust off those shiny new machines (dig it out of the closet, first) and allow yourself to learn an awesome technique that you will be proud of.

   P.S. For those of you still reading my ’short story’; I unthreaded the machine, once I got it right, and rethreaded, several times. The directions make so much sense. I got it now! My therapist can take the week off.

   …Just One More Thing…
   Will consider delivering one FREE Singer, with self-adjusting tension, to anywhere in the world.

   I received my Sewing With Nancy SWN10 EZ Lock Serger machine within the time expected, packed safely and securely. I had never used a serger before, but, always wanted one. Soon, I had it out of the box and was learning to thread it. This is a heavy and sturdy machine. I tried it out on different fabrics, made adjustment and I really got the hang of it. I couldn’t believe how user friendly this machine could be. The handbook and DVD were very helpful. I would recommend this machine to anyone that was looking for a good serger.

   Excellent product. DVD makes the machine very easy to thread and use. Outstanding value.

   I have tried everything to resolve my problems with this serger.

   The left needle (red) keeps snapping in half. The tension is fine, the needle is the right grade.. it keeps hitting the metal plate. This machine has left me in a tight spot, and I will purchase the brother.. which I will pay 50$ extra shipping for because I need my machine by friday.

   I called their customer service, and they want me to pay for the shipping, and wait for it to be repaired. I dont have that kind of time.

   I suggest, spending your money a little more wisely.

   I bought this serger and just love it. Easy to understand instructions and the video explains in greater detail. Easy to thread. Works like a dream.

   I love Amazon - I ordered this item Dec.3 around 6pm. It was delivered Dec.5 at 11 am. Incredible.
   I needed a new serger to replace my old faithful “white superlock” that decided to surrender after 25 years of service. I checked many stores, many brands, but prices were too high. In checking Amazon, I knew I found the winner. I trust “Sewing with Nancy”. She will not put her name on inferior product. I was right. I have tried the machine today and was very satisfied of the results. I have not figure out the quick threading yet, but even the manual threading was not that hard.
   Only complain is the DVD, inaudible sound - but no matter, I have the manual.
   A definite 5 stars for this serger. Thk you Amazon and Thk you Sewing with Nancy.
