This can be helpful when working with knits that might stretch out and distort if dragged, or heavy materials that might pull on the needles if dragged. Some industry specialists I spoke to like the Brother brand in general, especially for ease of threading. At 5 – 6 mm high, the 2104D will be able to get even more underneath. What can fit under a 4mm high presser foot? 8 layers of medium to heavy weight denim (each fold is 2 layers). I’m using the Brother 4234d, not 2104d. With the 2104D, threading is a breeze. The 2104D offers an easy to follow thread guide, and Brother's F.A.S.T. lower looper threading system. Brother pride themselves on ensuring that the 2104D is as easy to thread as possible thanks to it's ergonomic features and with the addition of a manual tension release and easy thread left looper.
