Default Serger--Bernina vs. Pfaff

I am a bernina person. I bought my serger quite awhile ago and have been
real happy with it. A Bernette 334ds. There are a lot of neat new
features available on the machines now. Have you sat down and sewn on
both? One will probably feel like it is a good 'fit'. Compare price
and features. How about dealer support? That is really a big thing
too. I doubt you could do wrong with either brand but only you will
know whuch is right for your needs.

Janome, because it's a decent serger at a decent price. But it does
depend which model you're looking at.

I really have been happy with the three Pfaffs I've had in the past 18
years, each one is an upgrade of the previous. Now I have the 4872, a
4-thread with cover stitch and many decorative stitches and I doubt I will
ever need another one. My oldest DD loves her new 5-thread, an upgrade from
mine, whereas the youngest DD is thrilled to have my old one. She doesn't
sew often.

Husqvarna.


Love my 910, but wore it out in 7 years. BUT I use it *very* heavily
for professional work. I'm thinking of replacing it with either the
Bernina 1100D or a Huskylock 905 (I never used the sewing advisor or
memory and see no call to pay for features I KNOW I won't use. On the
other hand, I do love the free-arm feature... ).
