FEIYUE FY505 Serger Overlock Machine, 2/3/4 Thread Capability

For the price and how much I use it, this machine does everything I need it to do. There is a learning curve though on threading (there’s an electronic guidebook which i printed along with a on machine guide as well). The one thing I found a little confusing was the colored threading guide hooks on the top, but I remedied that with matching color dot stickers to make thread location easier.

I’m happy with it. I’ve used it for the last 6 months and haven’t had any issues.

This machine works for what I wanted it to but you cannot use anything larger than a 3,000 yard cone because where you put the cones at it's not enough space in between them they should have been spread out a little bit better on the machine. because of this issue the threads touch and one of them will break because it gets Tangled with the other one beside it. The other issue I have is there is not very much room between where you are guiding the material and the bottom of the top of the machine. I can barely get my hand through it without touching the top part of the plastic between that and the base where the needle plate is. Even with the smaller thread cones they still touch and it causes the one needle thread to break so I am sewing with one needle thread and the upper and lower Looper. And for these issues that I have I'm giving it four stars. And that's only because I really needed this machine and it was delivered on time and it works for what I wanted to do. I just have to make accommodations for this machine and the threading.

I bought this machine in 2025, but the thread wall spacing is too narrow. The foot pedal is stuck, preventing me from sewing because the machine speeds up too fast. This is disappointing since I planned to use it to make crafts and projects while visiting my grandchildren in Virginia. I’m not happy with this machine. If I can purchase a new foot pedal, I would appreciate a reference. I don’t see it on the website.

Have to say, I was skeptical, but everything came packaged really nicely. Instructions were clear, and I didn’t have to thread it myself, which I was nervous about since I’m a noob! Everything seems to be really solid and I verbally said “stoppp. This is what I was missing?!” When I saw my first super clean seam. Great machine and budget friendly for a beginner!

I was so excited whenever it came in. Reasonably priced. Was ready to get to work. I have a lot of projects I have to do. Spent a little bit of time. I would say about 30 minutes getting it all set up. If you know, you know over lock machines take a little bit of time . After I did that I literally plugged in the pedal and it just started running. And I mean like I put my foot fully on the pedal I was confused. I pulled out the pedal. Tried to pull it up to see if maybe it was jammed and it wasn't. So I did it again just to make sure it wasn't some type of glitch. In there, it was running at full speed by itself. So to test it out, I put my foot on the pedal. And I could hear it accelerate as if it was like a double engine. I don't know this has been a horrible experience.

I was returning this item but changed mind. The machine wasn't working because I didnt plug it in correctly. Customer service contacted me and fix the problem. They went out they way to assist me and now I am a very happy customer. The service was excellent very professional. This FY505 serger machine is easy to thread and they have a very detailed video on setting up the machine. I give this service 100%.

Bought this with tremendous intentions of using it for my custom patches, but to be honest, I have not used it at all. It became very time consuming trying to feed the material through the proper loops. It's good quality, but just not what I got to really experience.

This machine is really good although it only takes 3000m cones not 5000 as stated by amazon

Tres bonne machine, fonctionne parfaitement bien.

Very beautiful, and the seller is honest.

Problèmes avec la surjeteuse, le fil no:2 casse tout le temps. Jamais eu de réponse à mes messages de ce représentant.

These machine is very good for someone who wants to use an overlocker. It comes with a manual showing how to use it and additional techniques coming in handy. It’s easy to set up and works really fast. Very worth it.
