Pros & Cons
Pros
Youtube has a plethora of videos that will make using this serger a breeze. I have a friend who has a pricey bernina who assisted me initially. I like the led light but it isn't very bright, you'll want good lighting in your room as well.
Highly recommended for newbies. This is my 1st serger ever, & i am so glad i gave this particular one a chance.
It does all of the things that i need it to do as an advanced beginner/intermediate sewer.
I sew and sell my handcrafted garments and accessories. The stitching is perfect. It also cuts and sew through at six layers of fabric.
Cons
The brother 1034dx seems to be a step down in quality. When it works, it’s fabulous. I lack the ability to fix that, and and very displeased that brother would rather send it to someone to charge $180 to fix a $240 machine less than a day after it was... Read More
I wish i had known how this knife retracted before i purchased. I can serge about 12” and one of the threads goes askew and i have to rethread.
Highlights
Quality
It doesn't have the heft of my older model but it stays in place while it sews and the stitch quality is good.
I'm in love with the product i did a couple test run but haven't used it for my project i plan to make bonnets and other crafty things
The manual explicitly says to do this with the needle in the lowest position, when you put it back you have to have the needle ... Read More
Shipping
It isn't overly loud no matter how fast or slow i run it.
Packaging/appearance
I am happy it came to me in a short amount of time and with excellent packaging they even gave me all the extras that come with... Read More
Order filled by world weidner machine embroidery and was very happy with prompt free shipping and careful packaging.
I read a lot of reviews before settling on the 1034dx.
Competitiveness
Having never used a serger before this one was super easy to use and trouble shoot.
You have to become familiar with using a serger and learn threading these machines.
I did not realize one could use a serger to sew and finish seams at same time (being new to a serger).
I was hesitant to buy this “cheaper” serger vs one of the ones that are twice or more the price.

I accidentally damaged my first one beyond repair after 3 years of use

Do not let this sit in the box for months before you get it out
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It has a one year warranty through brother so if you let it sit in the box you’re wasting that warranty
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
If you hear the machine getting noisier than usual it is time to oil and possibly to change the needles
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Put a drop of oil on any point that you see metal on metal in the looper mechanism
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
What they will not tell you is that you have to manually tuck the thread under the upper looper after you have done so
