  • Really Great Cover Hem Machine
Size: Included Snap-on Presser Foot
I love this machine!. I've had it for a few months now and find myself pleasantly surprised at the ease of use. You get your choice of 2 two-needle cover hems, narrow and wide or one triple cover hem. It also does a chain stitch. I did find that the triple cover hem puts a LOT of thread in your project...probably better on more substantial knits or wovens. If you already have a regular serger, then this one will be a snap to get the hang of. As far as the thread release issues, I use a wooden toothpick to release one thread at a time and have no problem at all. It's worth it to have cover hems come out as perfectly as they do on this machine. I sew mostly on knits, thick, thin, and in-between, with all kinds of stretch and recovery. I do a test sample before each garment type. This machine is very simple. No bells and whistles. Just good cover hems with no skipped stitches or any other problems. If you are experiencing thread breakage, (especially in the left needle) check these 3 things. Is your thread seated properly in the tension discs? Check to make sure. Is the thread spool on the correct spool holder? Are the threads following the correct thread paths? All of these things can cause problems. (The thread paths are shown color-coded right there on the machine.) I am just so pleased with the quality and reliability of this machine. It sews perfectly no matter what I put under the presser foot. I even used it very late at night when no sane person would mess with their serger- didn't break the machine or ruin the project. It doesn't miss a stitch even over big bulky seam intersections. Doing cover hems on this machine is completely painless and all the "excitement" is gone too!(Will it go the whole length without thread breakage???) I am sorry to hear that some people have had trouble with this machine, because I would give it 5 stars. You can see more positive reviews over at patternreview.com. I wasn't too thrilled with how it was packed. Someone at Amazon just took the factory box and dropped it into a big box and the factory box was banging around loose in there. It didn't seem to affect the machine, though. ... show more

  • Yes, you will bust your knit stash and finally love your homemade garments!
Size: Included Snap-on Presser Foot
This is a great machine and probably my favorite of my machines (I have 4 now). I opted for cheaper, single-use machines so I could get more of them. I have a serger, a straight-stitch with a few fancy stitches, and a vintage heavy-duty straight-stitch serger (which I haven't explored much except to confirm that it can sew through 6 layers of denim). I'll try to post photos, but I have used this to make a swimsuit (all the edges were done with this machine) and undies, and knit dresses and t-shirts. I have re-hemmed my boyfriend's stretchy athletic jacket/cuffs, and it looks like original stitching. Before getting this machine, I had tried wooly nylon in my serger, twin needle in my straight machine, but never got decent-looking or decent-stretching hems. I was so disgusted with that advice, because I felt I was doing everything right. I am convinced those will never give an attractive, even, stretchy hem on knit. This machine is nearly too fast. It can stitch as fast as you can feed it. I like that it only does one thing. That's my strategy for my machines. Other people buy some $2k all-in-one computerized thing, but all 4 of my machines cost less than $900 total. I do run batches of single-color sewing, since rethreading them takes time. I just finished my "pink" batch of sewing. I do not think rethreading this thing is hard. The hardest part is rethreading the regular needle-eyes. Removing from the machine really isn't slow. And removing a row stitches isn't too hard. Pick out a few stitches from the "correct" end, and it just whirls right out. The machine feels solid and doesn't creep around my table when sewing. I got an open-box machine here on Amazon, and it came with all the little items and works perfectly. I don't do the technique of hemming, then sewing seams for sleeve or shoulder. I do the longer step of measuring the circumference and then cutting something to fit, turning the edges in, and then basting with a straight stitch and then coverstitching. It takes a bit longer, but I don't like a big bump at the joins. I'm at the point where I want a workflow that I know will give me results I like, rather than "shorter". I find it's easier for me (must be getting old) to just do the work. :D ... show more

  • Didn’t know how much I needed this machine!
Size: Included Snap-on Presser Foot
Although I’ve been sewing and serging for most my life, I’m not an advanced sewist; I sew more for a hobbie and a pastime. I’ve been seeing a lot of info lately about the cover stitch machines and became curious about what I might be missing out on. After extensive research; comparing the Juki MCS 1500 to Brother 2340 CV; and consideration to what my actual needs are, I finally decided to buy the Brother.... from Amazon. I opted not to get it from other popular retailers primary because of my longstanding relationship and continued satisfaction with my experiences and expectations with online shopping. Once again, I couldn’t be more pleased! The 2340 CV is so easy to use! I had it going before even looking at the instructions and my stitches were perfect. Some of the concerns I had were related to frequent comments about a problem with releasing the fabric after finishing the seam and it seemed like there were so many different suggestions to solVe the problem. This was the only thing I did read in the 19 page manual. I figured that if it truly was a problem, Brother would’ve rectified it by now. I just follow the simple 8-steps exactly as described with photos and it worked perfectly. I’ve been using my cover stitch machine for three days now and I haven’t had any problems. I really enjoy using it and appreciate the quality of the stitch. To those experiencing problems with thread breaking, I can say I’ve tried the cheap Walmart all-purpose thread comes in variety packs, the cheap Walmart serger thread, and different high and low quality embroidery machine threads including the variegated. None of these threads gave me any problems. My only suggestion is that you thread the looper first- before threading the needles. It’s something I recall reading online and I took it for what it’s worth. Needless to say more, I highly recommend this machine to anyone desiring a more professional looking garment. But be sure to purchase it here because Amazon stands by there product and with their customers. I also purchased the optional extended warranty only because it was available at the time but I don’t think I’ll ever need it because Brother also stands by their product with a 25 year warranty. (Juki only offers 5 years.) ... show more

  • Not the best Brother has made

Machine worked great first try, then afterwards could not get it to stitch correctly. Was threaded right and just wouldn't do the cover stitch right. Sent it back and hopefully this was just a bad machine.

  • Great machine for beginners
Size: Included Snap-on Presser Foot
Short Version: This is a great machine for beginners. Low-cost but professional results. Numbered and color-coordinated tension points make threading this machine a breeze. Re-threading when the thread breaks can be annoying, especially because the manual tension release can be hard to do correctly. Sometimes the 3-thread cover hem skips a chain or two but continues to loop, which can cause the entire hem to unravel, requiring me to undo the entire hem, re-thread the machine, and start over. Overall a good product and I hope I can work out the kinks as I go along. Long Version: Prior to this machine, I had only used my sewing machine, a Singer Esteem (which I love) and my Juki-Mo 655 5-Thread Overlock Serger (which is still pretty new, so I have to give it some more time before I can leave an accurate review). For context, my Juki is a PAIN to thread. Even with the color-coordinated guide, it took me well over an hour the first time I attempted to thread it using the directions in the manual. Once threaded, I had to re-thread the machine at least a dozen times before the stitch was perfect. I am pretty new to these fancy machines, sergers and coverstitch, but I found this Brother Coverstitch machine MUCH easier to thread and use than my Juki Serger. It did take a bit for me to figure it out the first few times. However, after only a few days of regular use, I find it very easy to re-thread if ever I need to. The tension points are pretty straight-forward because they are numbered, and there is a color-coordinated guide, which helps make threading an even easier task. For those who have difficulty threading needles due to vision trouble, you will be pleased to know that there is only one of those tiny, sometimes-hard-to-get-to holes to push the looper thread through, and contrary to some machines, (cough cough, Juki)this hole is pretty easy to access. The one thing that can get annoying is releasing the tension to pull the fabric out. More than once, I have pulled and ripped the thread because you have to hold the necessary tension-release levers down while pulling the fabric straight back AFTER lifting the presser foot AND raising the needles to their highest point. I have found that raising and lowering the needles until I feel some of the tension release then starting the manual tension release process works best, though it doesn't always work. The only other problem I have besides the manual tension release is when I'm in the middle of doing a 3-thread cover hem, sometimes the machine skips one or two of the chain stitches but continues to loop. This wide loop weakens the entire hem and easily unravels, so I have to undo the entire hem, re-thread the machine, and start over. I haven't been able to pinpoint why this happens. Even after doing a test run, maybe 2 times out of 5, it skips a loop, and I have to go through the tedious process to redo everything. If anyone can explain what might be the cause of this, I'd appreciate it. All in all, this machine has been an enhancement to my freelance alteration and design business and is pretty easy to use. It looks professional without the exorbitant cost of some of the high-end serger/coverstitch machines, and my clients and I have been very pleased with the results. I would recommend this product. ... show more

  • LOVE IT!!!!!
Size: Included Snap-on Presser Foot
I've been sewing basic stuff (mainly hems and some small projects) for years but this year decided to do more. I got a Brother 1034D serger several months ago and love it. Because I was used to the Brother I decided to get the Brother Cover Stitch as well, despite some problems in the reviews. It's super easy to thread (as long as you employ tweezers at times to grab the threads). I like that the two brothers are set up similarly - made it less daunting for me to try the cover stitch as I could already thread and use the serger. I'm short, so most t-shirts (especially unisex ones) are way too long for my torso. In the past I solved this problem by just cutting off a strip at the bottom and letting the ends roll up. That's an okay solution but sometimes they just keep rolling and getting shorter and can also be lumpy under layers. I've been hemming some of my t-shirts with this and LOVING the results! So easy to do and it looks professional! I also hemmed a few pairs of pants (sweats and fleece pajamas) and it worked wonderfully - the stitch is the STRETCHIEST I've ever been able to do at home. Especially in hemming the fleece PJ's (which are ultra stretchy) it worked beautifully. There is no automatic tension release on this machine. You won't be able to get the fabric out by pulling. My machine came with a sheet with photos telling step by step how to get the fabric out. It wasn't difficult and after a few tries I had the system down pat. Yes, it's a bit annoying to have to take the time to do it (you have to cut the looper thread and re-set that and you have to pull the thread for the needles down to give slack and then pull through the needles and trim to avoid re-threading the needles), but it's not a deal-breaker for me - especially with the models having automatic tension release being more expensive! The other thing is that in the manual and in some videos I've seen, they pull the threads through to the back side to tie them off and prevent the stitches from coming out. They make it look easy - just kind of scratch with your fingernail until the thread comes back through. Nope. Not easy for me. I couldn't get it and kept loosening other threads in the chain stitch on the back. It was a mess. The solution is easy though - I just thread the front threads (I generally use two needles) with a regular sewing needle and use that to pass it through to the back side of the fabric so I can tie the ends in a knot. Works every time! ... show more

  • After watching videos, I knew what to expect and how to release the threads.
Size: Included Snap-on Presser Foot
This is what I needed to complete my sewing projects. I had tried to use a "serger stitch" from my regular sewing machine, but it took forever, and I had to do all sorts of adaptions to make it work. This machine just hems, but oh, how much time I save and how easy it is; it is amazing! The machine came well packaged and worked right out of the box. After having to thread a serger, this is a piece of cake. They say not to sew off of the fabric, so I haven't, although at first, I wrestled with how to release the fabric from under the presser foot because the thread tension really is tight. Here's what I got from the video I watched: press the thread tension buttons and pull down on those threads right before the eye of the needles. Then, take a flat item that will fit between the fabric and presser foot, and steer the thread that you just released to the front and cut those threads. Press the tension release for the looper and pull the sewn item toward the back. This will pull the top threads to the bottom and now you can cut the looper thread and tie it as you want. Once I mastered this, sewing hems has been a dream. I finished five dresses that I had packed away last year because the sleeves and bottoms needed hemming. I accomplished all of that in about twenty minutes. It is very easy to change thread colors...and actually, I leave white on the looper and just change the top-stitching needle thread to match the color I'm sewing on. It does not stretch out the knits I've sewn, so the end product looks very professional. For the longest time, I had a hard time deciding if I wanted to get a combo machine but I already have a serger, so I couldn't warrant spending that kind of money. I even was 'hemming and hawing' over this machine's cost, thinking that it only sews hems. Well, facing the idea of sewing hems used to make me pack away projects as I said above. Now, I am actually finishing the projects I've started. I even plan to get out a bathing suit that I started sewing last year. This should sew in the elastic like a champ. I whole-heartedly recommend this machine. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but it also has a reasonable cost. No auto threading, no LED lights...but I just saw a demo of one of the high end combo machines($6K), and apparently you still need to thread the needles by hand; the air-assist only does the loopers, which are so easy on this machine! Ah, one thing that I kept forgetting to do in the beginning is to replace the looper into its sewing position. I'd try to sew, and no stitches were happening! You have to release the looper to thread it (easy) but then, you have to remember to push it back in place! ... show more
