multiple layers of denim, corduroy, just thick, thick stuff!

Brother LS-2125 Mechanical

$96.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.overstock.com
the only problem i have had with it, is when i tried to sew thru 2 layers of denim.
from www.amazon.com
i didn't need a zillion different stitches - i needed a reliable, easy to use machine for hemming (including denim), mending, and simple projects.
from www.amazon.com
after reading through the instruction manual, i was able to fix two towels, three skirts (denim), one coats, and one pair of pants.
from www.amazon.com
if you wanted to sew layers of three or more pieces of fabric, or something thicker like denim, forget it.
from www.amazon.com
my problems were with the feed dogs, which had difficulty with anything thicker than medium-weight denim, and the speed, which is fast only - not so great on curves.
