SINGER® HD0500S Classic Black Serger

The SINGER HD0500S is a compact 2/3/4-thread serger with a feature SINGER calls an industry first: an LED that lights the lower looper, the hardest part of a serger to thread. It sews six stitch types at up to 1,300 stitches per minute, and removing the accessory compartment opens a free arm for cuffs, hems and other small circles.

Why choose the SINGER HD0500S

• 2, 3 and 4-thread capability with six stitch types.
• Free arm for sleeves, cuffs and hems once the accessory compartment is removed.
