Looks like a serger but guess it could be a coverlock machine.

I just noticed at bottom right of photo a case top it looks like. Can anyone make out what it says on it? Wonder if it the case top for this machine?

it looks like "Huskvarna". i have a viking and the case and color logo look like that. do you own this machine, or are thinking of buying it?

i just googled embroidery machines ONLY and sergers and none of them looked like that on the side, regardless of who made them.

you seem to have a mystery machine. :lol:

i just zoomed in on the case, and maybe it doesn't say huskqvarna. the lettering seems too long. it still doesn't look like anything. it looks mostly like a serger, but where do the thread cones go?

where did you see this?

I vote for older serger. I don't think an embriodery machine would have a cutter on it.

My old babylock serger extends out the back like that....and the front bottom side looks exactly like that...it's a door that opens for threading the 4 spools through all the spots in the machine.

I vote for an old serger (and mine is over 15 years old I think)

It sure looks like a serger to me! An older model, but I bet it is a dandy! My neighbor has several and she uses them all the time. A real workhorse! At least that is my opinion!

It's definitely a serger, but I don't see the spindles that hold the threads in the back. Mine looks very similar. I got mine at least 20 years ago - it's a Toyota, believe it or not, and I still use it when I'm working on clothes and such.
