Top 10 Best Serger Sewing Machines – Unbiased Reviews

Editor’s Choice: Best Serger Sewing Machines 

Taking the above point into account, we at sewing machines view have created an updated list of Top 10 Best Sergers.

We have omitted those poor machines as we never recommend a bad machine to our readers, which you can clearly see from our recommendation level for each machine. This list contains the best of the best sergers available in U.S.

Brother 2340CV Cover Stitch

This is a cover stitch machine, not a real serger. It has features like 3 needles, differential feed system, chain stitch and 6mm triple needle cover stitches. You can do trim cover, cover, utility, flatlock and decorative stitches on this machine.

Pros:

This machine is very good for one specific purpose, doing a cover stitch. Actually, the quality of stitches is as good as industrial machines. When you consider that, the price seems to be very reasonable.

Drawbacks:

Brother 2340CV does not have automatic tension release which is a drawback as it will take at least a couple of attempts to get used to the manual tension release system. This machine is not highly recommended unless you want a cover stitch machine.

Siruba HSO-747D Overlock Sewing Machine

Siruba is not a favorite serger brand in U.S. But this particular model features among the bestselling sergers due to its inexpensive and reasonably good performance. But still, it is not highly recommended by sewing machines view.

We had to include it in the list because it is the least expensive serger that has some quality associated with it. It is a two needle convertible 3 or 4-thread serger. It has differential feed mechanism, free arm capability, and adjustable presser foot.

Pros:

Not a lot of bells and whistles, but it seems to be a good one for basic stuff. Micro safety switch is one useful feature. While reviewing, it gave us satisfactory results and worked well on different kinds of fabrics.

Drawbacks:

We are not sure about the durability of this machine as it is made of very cheap quality plastic. 

SINGER 14T968DC Professional 

It is a serger designed for real professionals. The best thing about this serger is that it has both overlock and cover stitch capability.

Some other features are automatic tension, upper moveable knife, 2/3/4/5 thread stitch capability, automatic and manual presser foot pressure adjustment.

Pros:

The overlock and cover stitch combination is the highlight of this machine. This is the only serger in this list which has both the features. This is a machine with so many features that you will normally see actual value and above sergers. The automatic tension feature is stunning.

Drawbacks:

The work light is dim, to be honest. This serger does not have free arm capability. This machine is on the heavier side as well.

Janome 8002D Serger with Exclusive Bonus Bundle

This is a highly underestimated serger. It has 3 or 4 thread overlock stitching capability, built-in rolled hem and differential feed system.

Pros :

Few people who bought this serger have given 100% positive feedback. That is the reason why we said; it is an underestimated machine. You can easily convert this machine to rolled hem mode without removing the needle plate. It is a very quiet machine. The smooth and quiet operation is something that would impress anyone.

Drawbacks:

Slightly complicated threading is the only con of this machine.

It is a highly stable machine with little vibration while operating. Stitch quality is pretty impressive. It has an amazing knife that cuts through any kind of fabric. This machine does an equally good job at high and low speeds. Speed control and precision is something that we really liked about this serger. It is portable as well.

Drawbacks:

The in-built light and the user manual requires a lot of improvement.
