Review by shell
really good coverstitch top stitches very straight so great with jeans and knits hems--i will be using it more with the new curtains. i havent tried the overlock part but judging from the coverstitches i am sure they are just as nice very good for the price

I am so impressed not only with the macho but also the customer service. There was a problem with the delivery which was handled so sympathetically and efficiently. I bought a Jaguar 935D overlock and I am delighted with it. It is the first one I’ve used but it is easy to thread and works like a dream.

Review by Hobby Sewer
Bought the Hobbylock 2.5 after my old Singer from Lidl gave up on me. It was good to have an insight into overlockers knowing how temperamental they can be ie., only liking certain thread and certainly being thread in strict order. I am enjoying using my new machine learning as I go along but would certainly recommend it as it was recommended to me by a good friend.

Review by Margaret
Great service and delivery. I’ve swithered about purchasing an overlocker for a long time and finally took the plunge. I’ve had three Janome sewing machines over my sewing life of 60+ years so decided on a Janome overlocker. I ordered the 9300DX on the Saturday afternoon and it was delivered (ready threaded ????????) on the Tuesday afternoon. Good email communication from the seller and delivery company throughout. Having watched a number of YouTube videos on the threading process, I took the plunge and tried it myself. The lower looper was the fiddliest, but after about 30 minutes and with help from a magnifying glass I finally managed it. I’m still practising and getting the feel for it, but an overlocker is an absolute game changer. I wish I’d taken the plunge years ago.

I had problems with my old coverstitch machine, so went for this Brother. It sews a bit slower than the other one, but it's not slow. The top coverstitch attachment works well and looks super neat.

Very good machine with clear instructions, both on the machine and in the instruction book. The service provided by Sewing Machine Sales was excellent, machine arrived exactly when they said it would.

Babylock Victory is amazing! no tensions to worry about. At first I thought it cannot be that good, but honestly it is! The overlock stitches are so good as it adjusts itself to whatever material your using from thick to thin and I was amazed at how extremely perfect they are. The seam was also perfect. It was worth the upgrade and makes sewing stress free. I Recommend this machine. The technician recommended this to me at the shop and he was right.

I did visit the shop, and the technician recommended a certain brand for what I was looking for, as there are so many new machines to choose from I wanted to get the right one for what I needed. I also watched a tutorial on two brands and shop technician had got it right! the "Babylock was a far superior machine, so I ordered this one from the online shop which was fairly easy to do so looking forward to delivery :)

Review by Mrs S
The Babylock Euphoria is an absolute dream of a machine. I have tried other makes and models that were cheaper and, although there was nothing specifically wrong with them, they just weren’t the machines for me. The Euphoria is so easy to thread right from the start and it runs so smoothly. I have tested it on various fabrics and the auto tension has worked spot on every time. I have only had it for a few days but so far I am over the moon with my purchase. Sewing Machine Sales offer such fantastic service - I ordered one afternoon and took delivery literally 24 hours later. Five stars all round!
