Question new

Hi everyone. I am new to this forum. I am looking for information & tips to purchase a newer serger, any model new or used maybe no older than 5 yrs. I have an older Toyota Serger. Baby lock is enticing with air threading. I have a problem threading and learning complicated machines. I would like to try a cover stitch if it isn't too complicated.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Sharon

Welcome from Ontario, Canada. I don't have any advice for a serger except get one that is self threading if possible.

I have a serger, but have never used it...I agree get a self threader and if possible lessons...
