No more tying ends and running them through, rolled hem is remove the one needle, turn one nob, change stitch length and start sewing. and since there is no tension on it, you can go from three 4 layers of denim straight to organza and not touch anything but the foot peddal, was it more than the juki I also have, yes by a lot, but for ease of use, it is worth it if you can afford it. (when I bought it they said I can serge with ribbon, I want to try it but haven't had a chance yet. )

Barbm, just mail it to me and I will foster it for a while.
To die for. I've seen those demonstrated and my DD has one. I just wonder if I do enough serging to justify the cost of one of those things. When I was garment sewing, I wouldn't have blinked an eye to get one of those, but now........I don't know.

And Barbm, get that thing out of the box and crank it up. :lol:
