I have had a Singer serger for 15+ years. I have had no problems with it and it is still going strong today. I have not used it on quilting projects but used it a lot when I was sewing for the grand kids and making craft items. However, everyone has their favorites. Before you buy, you should go to several dealers and request a good hands on demonstration and then select the brand you feel would work best for you. Also, ask about lessons as some dealers provide several of these as part of their service when you purchase a machine. Most dealers also sell reconditioned machines that they receive in trade when someone buys a new machine. Good luck.
