I cleaned it last night-haven't had a chance to try it out yet.
A serger is a serger, brand shouldn't make a difference when it comes to a service. I will say, and not sure if it's the same everywhere, that a serger service may cost more than a sewing machine service. The one place here that advertised serger service charged $30 more for a serger. So I made a deal with someone else and traded one of my vintage Singers to have my Beast (Consew TuffyLock) serviced the first time. It was worth it to me. I've since gotten the courage to open him up myself when he chewed up and spit out his belt in tiny pieces.
