Juki MO-80CB Free-Arm Serger Overlock Machine

Easy to learn, wonderful options, great value

I am really loving this machine. This weekend I have made myself multiple outfits and it keeps on going. It is very easy to just take it out the box and then go. I haven't messed with any settings yet but have made a bunch of things. I am very happy my husband convinced me to get this juki and not just replace my old machine with the same model. When my regular sewing machine stops, it will be replaced with a juki too Yes, I do recommend this The machine is actually reasonably quiet for a serger. I am able to use it without needing to be behind closed doors Based on how long I kept my last serger, we believe that this one will prove to be off even better value for money as it is a sturdier machine in my opinion. I cannot say how well it does on all the other things a serger can do as I've not tried to do them, but what I have tried it had done well.

After a disastrous year long struggle with a Brother serger (jammed fabric that needed to be pulled out which apparently resulted in internal damage to serger. Still under warranty but told damaged by user). On research I found out that this is usual for the Brother serger. So, decided to go with Juki, for Japanese quality. And I am not disappointed so far. A beautiful machine that runs perfectly. Feels sturdy and easy to thread. After years of sewing with a Singer sewing machine, a Brother (Overlocker) Coverstitcher, a defunct Brother serger, I am now a total fan of Juki. Wish I had bought this machine a long time ago, saved myself a lot of angst and money.

I'd been wanting a serger for years (decades?) and had never broke down and bought one. being home nearly 100% of the time during COVID-19, started to looking at serger options again. I spent a number of weeks looking at various options and felt this Juki machine was a great mix of features and price. I've had this now just over a month and to get used to the various stitch options, I got RGBY threads and made samples of all the stitches described in the manual. Following that, I've so far left it on a three thread (right needle, top, bottom) and have made about 50 child sized masks for the local county who is collecting children's masks for low income families. Curves are a bit more involved than a traditional sewing machine, but expect that is nothing specific to this machine, as much as sergers overall. otherwise, it has been awesome and without issue. the seller (SewVacDirect in TX) also was great and had this here according to the estimated time amazon listed!

Estoy enamorada 😍😍, lo malo es que se desbebra mucho. Y la aguja de rompió cuando intenté coser un material grueso

Would have given 5 stars but I found the last step threading the lower looper difficult. The good news is it comes threaded, so you can just do a tie off and pull threads through. Unfortunately I snaggled the threads up and undid lower looper threading so had to re-thread. Finally watched the Juki video on YouTube since the instruction book didn't really make it clear. Got it threaded, more by accident than skill, and started using the machine. Sews a beautiful 4 thread overlock, am playing with other setting settings over the next few weeks. Runs pretty quietly, and like the built in accessories storage in the front panel. Am happy with the machine.

It's easy to use and sews beautifully. The reason it didn't get 5 stars is because of the lighting. It's placed in a position where it casts a dark shadow under the presser foot guides making it very hard to see where your stitching line is.

Great serger. I love how all the tools have a special place if their own and a little trash bin attachable. It serges great. Is steady on your table, came pre threaded and tension was set perfect. There was a part missing so I contacted Amazon who had me contact seller, who had it to me in 2 days. I have no complaints about this machine.

Très bonne machine. Reçu au Canada avec des frais tel que attendu. Fonctionne très bien, facile à enfiler (est arrivée pré-enfilée). Je n'ai pas encore testé tous les points disponibles, ou configurations d'aiguilles, mais je peux dire que je suis satisfaite du produit. Un complément pour ma machine industrielle.
