Hi everyone ~ I'm wondering if anyone with an Elna 945 Serger has had a problem with the needle clamp. Mine broke after 1.5 months and maybe 4 uses. I have been told it will be about $350 and a return to the manufacturer to make the fix and that this is a COMMON problem with the 945. Sounds fishy because my original 945, the one I used for 6.5 years and was stolen from my car trunk (in my driveway) never had this problem or any other problem. I bought the current 945 from a local dealer having a sale on 945s. This one was the only one left and was a demonstration machine. I didn't think to ask for a warranty card because I had always been so very, very happy with my original machine. My question is simply, has anyone had the needle clamp problem, or are they flying one past me?
Thanks.
