Hello, does this overlocker have a removable arm piece? I'm new to overlockers and have heard that some don't, but I would like one that does as I will be sewing cuffs and small children's clothing.

I am a very experienced seamstress and finally made the decision to purchase an overlocker. I bought the Jaguar overlocker because a friend had previously bought one and was extremely pleased. I ordered it one day and it arrived for breakfast the next day so it was super fast. The DVD was useful as a guide to rethreading. The doors on this machine open right out so it isn't at all fiddly to thread up. You can see exactly what you are doing. I had rethreaded and was using it by the afternoon it was delivered. I would consider it an entry level machine and the extra feet that are supplied will be very useful.

The overlocker is brilliant, stitches are very even, threading the overlocker is the best I’ve done very easy, no flimsy sections to worry about, great value for money. The cottons are very good. The bag is great it fits my sewing machine and overlocker.

I am totally new to owning an over locker, and was worried whether I would get on with one but I can honestly say my new Jaguar 488 is my new best sewing friend. It comes already threaded so you can have a play straight from in boxing, but it's so easy to thread I managed to change threads first time. The machine is a pleasure to use, easy to control, stable and does not make a huge amount of noise. I initially was undecided between the 488 and 489, but decided the additions of 2 thread, a waste tray and a thread cutter were not necessary for me. I am delighted with my machine. Was also grateful for the phone advice I received pre purchase. All round would highly recommend this machine and GUR.

I’ve never used an overlocker before and it has transformed my sewing experience! I wasn’t sure what to buy but the guys at GUR were superb and steered me to the best machine for me. It’s so easy to use - threading is a doddle and the machine runs like a dream. I won’t bother shopping around anymore when it comes to sewing equipment and accessories as the service from GUR is fantastic so much so I treated myself to new sewing machine from them too 😊

After researching overlocker I was so confused. I contacted GUR and they were able to offer advice and made recommendations. I placed an order for the Jaguar Novum 488 overlocker. The transaction was easy and straight forward. The order was placed around 2.30pm and by 10.00 am the next day it had been delivered. Now that's service. I haven't used it yet but am looking forward to it. It came pre threaded which is a big help. I would highly recommend GUR.

I bought the Jaguar Novum Supa for my wife who started sewing during the lockdown. As she had never used an overlock machine I was looking for a model that was easy to use. After contacting GUR for some recommendations we chose the 488 model. The overlock arrived the next day to my wife's delight. She has been using it ever since and found it easy to set up and use. It comes already threaded which makes the spool change much easier when following the instruction manual. Great overlocker and excellent customer service from GUR.

Purchased this as a second machine, whilst trying to find a repairer for my Janome. What a fantastic machine- basic but does everything beautifully. Easy to thread, it does come with threads already threaded, but wanted to try it myself. This machine does not disappoint and the customer service has been brilliant in answering my queries prior to purchase. Highly recommend and it came with extra sewing feet-which I am looking forward to trying out soon.

I really like this machine. This is my first experience with an overlocker so still learning to use it. However it is surprisingly easy to thread. I am doing a short overlocker course to help learn how to make adjustments to the machine. So far I have had really good results with overlocking my sewing projects.

This machine is easy to thread up. I like both doors opening for ease of threading up. As with most overlockers it takes time to get the right tensions. It is a heavy stable machine and sews very nicely over all fabrics especially knits. I had not heard of this brand and am very impressed with the quality of this machine.

I was looking for a new overlocker and needed an easier threading system. This machine is so clear to see how it’s threaded...the machine is sturdy and although I haven’t tried all of the different attachment feet I can’t see it being a problem. Great price too...this is my second new machine from GUR....I would recommend the service and friendly advice and delivery, not to be sneezed at these days!

I am 80 and this machine was purchased for me by my husband as my fingers not as supple as they used to be. I am loving this new machine. The very fact that it opens up at the front to facilitate ease of threading the dreaded lower looper. The machine is well made, as yet I have not used all the attachments, but have no reason to think these will notgo well I t is an excellent machine all round with good value for money. I have no hesitation in recommending it.

Bought it for my daughter who is thrilled to bits with it. No problem threading it which she tells me can be a problem. She's finished a pair of trousers for my grandson in record time.

I am very impressed with the quality and promptness of service of your company. This is the quickest I have received an order from mainland UK especially in the light of the current pandemic. Themachine which I have now unpacked, read the manual, and watched the Dvd as well as having a trial run,comes well up to my expectations. I am 80 and my husband purchased this machine for me as I found my fingers no longer worked well in threading my original overlocker. I am absolutely delighted with this purchase.

Despite having easy access to the loopers to ease threading I have still found this overlocker a bit temperamental which is why I got rid of my old one and bought new. I accept it has to threaded in a very specific way but sometimes it still plays up despite changing threads and needles. which is dissapointing. It was good value that you got the interchangeable feet with it but you do need good dexterity which I havent got. With regard to the seller they dealt with my order efficiently and the item arrived promptly just I begin to despair of overlockers and their foibles!

I have just purchased this overlocker after looking around for some time. I chose this one in the end because it look strong and easy to use. I am learning to thread with the help of the on line videos. I am sure I will be able to master it given time. The price is excellent for this strong looking machine. The bundle of extras are all of excellent quality. I am so looking forward to using it. I recommend this machine to any beginner. The service was excellent. The machine was delivered the next day. Amazing.

I upgraded to this from a basic singer overlocker and am finding it much easier to thread and much more reliable. It is much quieter and doesn’t feel like it’s going to shake itself apart! I haven’t had a chance to use the additional feet yet but will definitely be giving them a go when I find a new project. This is a great overlocker, although I am a relatively inexperienced sewer.
