Give a professional look to your next project with serged seam finishes. Seams lie flatter and look better with an overlock stitch. Home decor projects often suggest the use of a serger for rolled hems and secure seams and differential feed. Choose from a 3 or 4 thread look and enjoy the new and easy threading method. The 1034D features two needles and ¾ thread with differential feed. Create stitches from 2.0 to 4.0 mm in length. Differential feed ratio of 0.7 – 2.0 gives improved stitch quality. Free arm makes it easier to sew sleeves, trouser legs and other hard to reach places.

Frequently Asked Questions

(Q) I want to get a machine that will allow me serging and/or coverstiching on ANY kind of fabric! I am undecided among three of the machines you sell: the Juki MO735, the Brother 2340CV and 1034. I mainly would like to know what the differences among them are, and if such differences would justify the difference in pricing. It is sometimes hard for me to understand the difference between flatlock and overlock, for example, so not knowing how I could use them in different situations, it doesn't make much sense to get a machine that has them both? So from your expert opinion, which one you would recommend based on what I'm looking for?. Would you recommend that, instead I buy two separate serger and a coverstitch? What would be the main reason for me to buy the MO735 instead of the two others, considering it's more expensive?

(A) The 2-thread stitch is for overcasting a single layer of fabric. It does not have the seam, only the overcast. Of course, you can overcast with the 3 or 4 thread stitches as well.

The overlock stitch is a seam with overcast built in. It can be 3, 4 or 5 threads. 3 thread would be for very light weight fabrics, since it's narrower. 3 and 4 thread stitches have stretch, so they are the best stitches for knits, but can also be used on wovens. 4 thread stitch is wider than 3 thread stitch, so it is better for medium weight fabrics. The 5-thread stitch is a straight chain stitch and a 3 thread overlock (separate) and is for heavier fabrics and wovens, since it does not stretch.

Flatlock is a variation of the 2-thread or 3 thread overlock stitches. The tension is adjusted so there is no seam, only the overcast. When you sew 2 layers together and pull them flat, the seam allowances are enclosed, so they do not stich out to fold to one side or the other. The fabric is pulled "flat." On one side the stitch looks like a normal overlock stitch. On the other side it has threads going crosswise, like a ladder. The stitch is often used decoratively with special threads in the looper. It is used for patchwork or knit garment seams.

It's nice to have a serger and a separate coverstitch machine, especially if you will use the coverstith often. It saves you time converting from one stitch to the other. However, that's not always practical, space-wise. Once you've made the change a couple of times, it will become quicker and eeasier for you. You can leave the chain stitch looper thread (also used for the coverstitch) through the threading path (except the eye of the looper), so you can tie on and pull new threads through, thus saving a lot of time when you make changes.

The sergers and coverstitch machines you listed are all good quality. None are made in Japan. However, the production is supervised by the Japanese and we have not noticed any quality problems since the production was shifted out of Japan.

The advantage of the Juki MO735 is that it is the most heavy-duty machine, since Juki uses their industrial parts and expertise in its manufacture: http://www.allbrands.com/products/abp05031-0267.html.

The advantage of the Brother 2340CV at is that its coverstitch is a little bit wider and it has some wonderful accessories to help you guide your fabric for various operations: http://www.allbrands.com/products/abp06948-0263.html.

My first choice would be to get one of the Juki 4 or 5 thread sergers and the Brother coverstitch only machine.

We also carry the Brother 1034D serger, which has many more features than most sergers and comes at a great price.

If you want only one machine, I'd get the Juki MO735.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any more questions. We look forward to serving your equipment needs.

Thanks,
Annette Douthat

Brenda, Texas
My serger and embroidery machine arrived very quick, everything was packed good and the products were ok. The only problem that I had was some of the free products were missing. I emailed customer service and annette took care of the problem right away. This company is great and I will order from them in the future.

Charlene, Indiana
I had never owned a serger before, but am very satisfied with my new Brother. I was very happy there was an instructional DVD included as it was very helpful. Buying my serger was an overall pleasant experience. Thank you.

Sherri, Utah
I am so excited to sew with my new serger. It has been working out like a dream.

Janelle, Oklahoma
All Brands shipped exactly when they said they would and the serger arrived on time. I found the item at a lower price on Walmart.com, BUT decided to go with All Brands because 1. All Brands included two extra feet, 2. All Brands had free ground shipping, and 3. All Brands emailed me a $10 off coupon. For me these three things made the All Brands serger a better value. (I did not email you about the lower Walmart price.) PLUS, I was surprised to see the serger had been threaded and a sample piece had been serged before it left the warehouse. Thank you. I will buy from you again!

Charla, Oregon
I will be back to buy more at a later date. Thank You

Linda, Florida

Amanda, North Carolina

Joaquin, Florida

Christine, Riverside, CA
I just love ALLBRANDS.com! I was amazed at the speed of shipping of my serger and the price was the best I found! Thanks so much!rn

Linda, Napoleon, OH
My serger arrived within a few days of the order. Order tracking was provided and very helpful. I am completely satisfied with the product and the service. I would definitely recommend your company to anyone looking for a quality product at a fair price. I used your free shipping option and received a $10 off coupon from your email newsletter.rn

Graphic Mom, Southern Texas
After buying my serger and being so excited, I got home and thought, "now what"? I have never used a serger before. Opening the box, I was very happy to see there was a video with it to show the basics. That was 5 years ago. It still works like new, and I am still learning more every time I use it, but I am able to use it. It didn't take long to learn. The Brother 925D can be used as a 3 or 4 thread machine. Threading it is very simple. Everything is color coded to let you know where the string goes next. It also has a feature that you can shut off to cut the excess fabric as it sews it. I sew everything I can now. Not just quilts, but clothing and household things as well. With my serger, it gives it a professional look. The biggest plus of all would have to be the price. I would recommend this machine for anyone that is just learning to use a serger.

Rosa Zerkle,
I purchased a Brother 925D Lock serger over 2 years ago! My main motivation was the price! (A very reasonable 279.00!) This machine has been through the trenches for me and has come out going strong!! The Brother 925D has many features that I took for granted before I saw many other sergers. The threading is color coded and a piece of cake! The tensions have a lay in thread guide for those needing the "Serging for Dummies" course! It also has an outstanding feature which involves the lower looper threading. Most sergers require the side plate to be completely removed for the delicate process of lower looper threading. This machine has a great finger, that enables you to set the looper thread in a little hook and push it into place. This basic Brother also has a front plate that swings down for ease of threading and cleaning. It features differential feed, lots of stitch length and width settings, and a convenient knob to turn down your knife. It comes with a video and instruction book that shows you how to make the most of the machine. Techniques includes blind hem, rolled hem, flatlocking, and elastic application, to name a few. It is a good machine at a great price. I would definately recommend it for any home seamstress, especially those who are unfamiliar with sergers. I will continue to sew with mine! It is exremely easy to use, and reliable for moderate use.
