If you truly want to buy the missus a serger she will ENJOY, and USE, I encourage you to look at a used Babylock. Babylock is the ONLY serger that has automatic air-threading and auto tension.
No I do not sell Babylock's, I own one!
Thanks for the suggestions but we already bought a singer 14u32 and will be sticking with it for a while.
We tried threading a friends 14u64 the other day and both the wife and I had no troubles.
Took a little longer than a regular sewing machine but it wasn't a problem.
