April was the month to treat yourself to the new Bernette B68. I loved my top of the line from another company, but as I'm aging, threading those loopers became a time of anxiety, and a lot of cussing while trying to do so and never enough light to see the dang little thread guides. Now, I press a button, thread the needles and I'm sewing. I don't walk away from this machine in frustration because I'm so rattled at trying to thread the loopers. Right out of the box, it sewed like a dream. The five lights, the slide on table, the scrap catcher, and most of all, the knee lift! OMG, every serger should come with a knee lift! Everything is so well planned and incorporated into this machine. Open the cover and your tools and needles are at your fingertips. The B68 is relatively quiet and very smooth. The only thing that would make a awesome machine like this perfect, would be a speed control. I love this machine and I'm so glad I made the purchase. SewingMachinesPlus has to be the best website I've ever come across. Thank you! Machine was here in no time. I would recommend any sewer to check these out and treat yourself as I did. You're worth it!
