The Brother 2340CV Cover Stitch is an advanced serger that was designed to allow users to create a wide range of cover stitches on multiple weights and types of fabric. The flexibility to create constructive and decorative applications is made possible through the advanced technology infused into the Brother 2340CV serger. Some of the advanced user features include wide and narrow cover stitches, tricover stitch capability, and an easy looper threading system. The 2340CV also offers color-coded threading and adjustment dials, which helps to provide higher quality stitching.
The addition of a presser foot dial, snapon feet, and a differential feed permits you to adjust the stitch length and speed of material flowing through this advanced serger. The Brother Cover Stitch is built with three needles and one looper thread that can allow you to create professional hems, chain stitching, and decorative stitching. This machine is exceptional for creating the perfect Tshirt with very little effort. With the variety of utility to decorative cover stitches, users can professionally finish edges with a single or dual topstitching look. This machine allows you to create durable strapping for dance garments and swimsuits or a chain stich finish for hems or belt loops. This product is also backed by a 25year limited warranty with support for the life of the product.
The Brother 2340CV Cover Stitch comes with an accessory bag that includes a needle set, four (4) thread nets, tweezers, four (4) spool caps, four (4) spool mats, a cleaning brush, a hexagonal wrench, a soft cover, and an operating manual.

This is my first serger machine that I learned how to use in a day and earned some money with it from the first try -- that's how perfect it functions!So I bought it a little more than half a year ago and mostly use it to finish bottoms of stretchy T-shirts and sleeves of long-sleeved shirts. The dials and all the settings are pretty easy to deal with.The plastic probably could've been thicker: it makes sounds if you push too hard and I don't think these modern tools will last hundreds of years but you're supposed to use this machine to sew, not to just randomly touch its parts and wonder if your great grandchildren will inherit it or not, right? 😁 But it's just an observation.I have never had any issues with this machine AT ALL. Now it's one of my favorite tools in the house. ❤️

This machine is a staple in my studio. I have not had any issues and it was very easy to set up and get to know. So much better than using a twin needle on a domestic machine. My customers have commented on how nice the finish is, that feedback makes me more money

Came very well packaged, no issues, worked perfectly right out of the box with only minor adjustments to my standards of sewing. Very pleased.

I've been sewing basic stuff (mainly hems and some small projects) for years but this year decided to do more. I got a Brother 1034D serger several months ago and love it. Because I was used to the Brother I decided to get the Brother Cover Stitch as well, despite some problems in the reviews. It's super easy to thread (as long as you employ tweezers at times to grab the threads). I like that the two brothers are set up similarly - made it less daunting for me to try the cover stitch as I could already thread and use the serger. I'm short, so most t-shirts (especially unisex ones) are way too long for my torso. In the past I solved this problem by just cutting off a strip at the bottom and letting the ends roll up. That's an okay solution but sometimes they just keep rolling and getting shorter and can also be lumpy under layers. I've been hemming some of my t-shirts with this and LOVING the results! So easy to do and it looks professional! I also hemmed a few pairs of pants (sweats and fleece pajamas) and it worked wonderfully - the stitch is the STRETCHIEST I've ever been able to do at home. Especially in hemming the fleece PJ's (which are ultra stretchy) it worked beautifully.There is no automatic tension release on this machine. You won't be able to get the fabric out by pulling. My machine came with a sheet with photos telling step by step how to get the fabric out. It wasn't difficult and after a few tries I had the system down pat. Yes, it's a bit annoying to have to take the time to do it (you have to cut the looper thread and re-set that and you have to pull the thread for the needles down to give slack and then pull through the needles and trim to avoid re-threading the needles), but it's not a deal-breaker for me - especially with the models having automatic tension release being more expensive!The other thing is that in the manual and in some videos I've seen, they pull the threads through to the back side to tie them off and prevent the stitches from coming out. They make it look easy - just kind of scratch with your fingernail until the thread comes back through. Nope. Not easy for me. I couldn't get it and kept loosening other threads in the chain stitch on the back. It was a mess. The solution is easy though - I just thread the front threads (I generally use two needles) with a regular sewing needle and use that to pass it through to the back side of the fabric so I can tie the ends in a knot. Works every time!

I love this machine!.I've had it for a few months now and find myself pleasantly surprised at the ease of use. You get your choice of 2 two-needle cover hems, narrow and wide or one triple cover hem. It also does a chain stitch. I did find that the triple cover hem puts a LOT of thread in your project...probably better on more substantial knits or wovens. If you already have a regular serger, then this one will be a snap to get the hang of. As far as the thread release issues, I use a wooden toothpick to release one thread at a time and have no problem at all. It's worth it to have cover hems come out as perfectly as they do on this machine. I sew mostly on knits, thick, thin, and in-between, with all kinds of stretch and recovery. I do a test sample before each garment type.This machine is very simple. No bells and whistles. Just good cover hems with no skipped stitches or any other problems. If you are experiencing thread breakage, (especially in the left needle) check these 3 things. Is your thread seated properly in the tension discs? Check to make sure. Is the thread spool on the correct spool holder? Are the threads following the correct thread paths? All of these things can cause problems. (The thread paths are shown color-coded right there on the machine.)I am just so pleased with the quality and reliability of this machine. It sews perfectly no matter what I put under the presser foot. I even used it very late at night when no sane person would mess with their serger- didn't break the machine or ruin the project. It doesn't miss a stitch even over big bulky seam intersections.Doing cover hems on this machine is completely painless and all the "excitement" is gone too!(Will it go the whole length without thread breakage???) I am sorry to hear that some people have had trouble with this machine, because I would give it 5 stars. You can see more positive reviews over at patternreview.com.I wasn't too thrilled with how it was packed. Someone at Amazon just took the factory box and dropped it into a big box and the factory box was banging around loose in there. It didn't seem to affect the machine, though.
