Hi MerryQuilter,
Is it a 4-thread? How much?
I've had Kenmore sergers for over 12 years. Burned-up motors in 2 of them. I recently tried a Brother, which I didn't like at all. And then "test-drove" both a Juki and a Babylock. Threading is not an issue. I never had a problem threading the Kenmore's. But, what I really liked about the BL is the fact that you don't have to adjust the tensions. Now, that's what I have a problem with. But, the price is way over my budget.
