Integrated Seam Guide & Straight Edge Control

A built-in seam guide helps you maintain straight, consistent seams and edge finishes without marking every step. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

Full Access Looper Threading

Both left and right front covers open fully so the looper area is completely exposed—threading is easier and less error prone. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Differential Feed for Smooth Seams

Prevent puckering or stretching in knits or lightweight fabrics. Use differential feed for gathering or controlled looseness when needed. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Adjustable Stitch Length, Cutting Width & Presser Pressure

Tailor each seam to your fabric. Change stitch length from 1–5 mm, adjust cutting width, and regulate presser foot pressure for plush, thin, or layered fabrics. 

Easy Lay-In Tension & Color-Coded Threading Paths

Simplified threading with lay-in tension design and color guides helps new users avoid frustration and speeds up setup.

Pre-Threaded Right Out of the Box & LED Lighting

The machine ships with thread already in place for basic operation, and bright LED lighting ensures excellent visibility over your work area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can it handle thick fabrics or multiple layers?

Yes—adjustable presser foot pressure, cutting width, and stitch settings allow you to manage layers. However, extremely heavy or specialty fabrics should be tested first.

Is threading difficult?

The lay-in tension system with color-coded paths and full front cover access makes threading much easier than traditional sergers.

What fabrics work best?

Good for knits, woven fabrics, lightweight to medium weight goods. Use differential feed to control distortion on stretch fabrics.

Does it support rolled hems or decorative stitches?

Yes—2 or 3 thread modes allow rolled hems, decorative edges, and flatlock finishes using the built-in stitch options.
