Singer Overlock 14SH754 Sewing Machine

Product Information

Threading path for each thread is indicated with a specific colour which makes threading easy! Reference diagrams are also included right under the front cover of the machine. If you’re using your machine for commercial purposes, the warranty is for 1 year. Best suited for occasional sewists I love the colour-coded threading diagrams and stitch illustrations printed on the machine. You won’t need your manual every time you thread it. With the Singer S14-78, you get a total of 12 different stitches to work with, ranging from those utilising 2-threads, 3-threads and the full 4-threads at one time. 12 may not sound like a lot compared to other models, but given it’s reasonable price tag, we think it’s more than enough.

When compared against a sewing machine there are quite a few noticeable differences. In addition to being faster at sewing they also come with a built-in blade which trims off the excess seam allowance as you go, which again is more time efficient than having to do this task with scissors. A speed of up to 1,300 stitches per minute and six different stitch types to choose from, you can get the perfect stitch for any project, and get it finished in no time. The removable free arm makes sewing hard to reach areas considerably easier, so armholes, collars, and cuffs become less of a chore.

The lower looper threading system, which can be horrible in other machines, is excellent. A switch pulls out the hidden lower looper so you can thread it in plain sight. This makes such a difference. So many freebies!

Be aware that this is a budget machine. It will be made with weaker metals, weaker motors, and more “relaxed” quality control during manufacturing. Success. ‘Lucie’.

They use fewer threads, creating a lighter stitch. If you don’t sew with fabrics like chiffon, you’ll probably never need them.

The Elite SE017 has an industry first; It boasts lower looper LED light which increases visibility for easier threading once the front flap is lowered. One of our images shows the LED looper light. The image was taken when is was just getting dark, yet the looper light lights up the looperarea. As if that wasn’t enough, you also get the benefit of precise and detailed pictures showing each step on the machine itself. Wide Range of Stitches AvailableProvides a wonderful professional seam finish, helps prevent loosely woven fabrics from unravelling, and offers unlimited decorative capabilities This look is accomplished due to the machine using multiple cones of thread at once, all offering different functions. It has a free arm, waste bin, and 2 features I don’t see often at this price: tiltable needles, and a built-in “2 thread converter”. These are small conveniences that make replacing the needles and switching to 2 thread stitches easier.
