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.

I asked questions via the online web chat which helped me make my mind up to purchase this machine, I haven’t used it much but it is easy to thread and it works brilliantly. Very fast delivery as well. I also went on to purchase the extension table for this machine from GUR as well, again - very fast delivery. Keep up the good work GUR.
Ordered on Sunday afternoon, it was here when I got home from work today (Tuesday).
Incredibly easy to set up. I played around with the tensions, stitch width and differential feeds to see how they would affect the stitch.
Really useful having it ready threaded with different colours so I could see the effect of each change I made.
I decided to bite the bullet and try re-threading it with the thread I had ordered from GUR. I could not believe how easy it was to thread. The machine is much quieter than I expected it to be and I love the fact that you can completely open up the front to see where all the threads go.
Thank you GUR for your excellent, efficient service. I can't wait to start sewing in earnest.
I wanted to buy a Brother as I have a Brother embroidery machine and have never had any problems with it and find it very easy to use. I haven't used an overlocker for about 20 years and remember how difficult it was to thread, but technology has moved on and I'm so pleased with this machine. It is extremely easy to operate and threading is a doddle compared to the old machines as long as you take your time and do it methodically. The only down side is that it is noisy. I have put it on a padded mat which does help, but I'll have to try something thicker. Overall a joy to use and I wish I'd bought one earlier.
I'm a beginner but had grown out of my beginner sewing machine. I wanted to buy a machine which would be easy to use just now while I'm still learning but would also be 'future proof' as my skills and projects develop so I thought what better machine than the ones used on the Sewing Bee - if it's good enough for them it's more than good enough for me. So far it's been a delight to use, it's so easy to set up and the functions like lock stitch button and thread cutting button are such useful, time saving features. I absolutely love my machine and I can't wait to use it for years to come. I ordered my machine and an hour later received and email saying it was ready for dispatch and it arrived the next day. Fantastic service from GUR.
