• Unique loopers

The baby lock desire3 features a tubular unique, compact looper system that guarantees fuss-free, quick threading. Extra-strong loopers in a quality similar to that used in industry make your babylock desire3 fit for more difficult tasks.

• Auxiliary looper / converter

The desire3's auxiliary looper / converter can be easily activated for a two-thread stitch. Since it is firmly connected to the upper looper, it can't get lost or misplaced.

• Jet-air system

The ingenious jet-air threading system makes threading your desire3 child's play. From now on, you are the one who defines the threading order. You no longer need to follow any coloured threading points or start again from the beginning because of a threading error. Forget about loose threads that may cause tangles and confusion. Simply choose the desired looper thread, insert it into the threading port, push the button and the yarn will be threaded up to the tip of the desire3's looper as if by magic. In fact, all loopers will. The jet-air system of your babylock desire3 is simply ingenious!

• Never worry about thread tension again!

Thanks to the automatic thread delivery system of your babylock desire3. Simply choose a stitch, set the thread delivery system correspondingly and start sewing. No more tiresome tension adjustment every time you use another fabric, seam or thread thickness. Simply set the automatic thread delivery system to the desired stitch. Your baby lock desire3 will produce exact stitches. There are three sensors – stitch width sensor – stitch length sensor – fabric thickness sensor – that help you produce perfectly balanced stitches on your desire3 – with no ifs and buts!

• Adjustment possibilities

Your baby lock desire3 lets you adjust the stitch width quickly and easily. You can deactivate the cutter quickly and easily with a switch if you want to sew closed or tube-like pieces of clothing. The same switch reactivates the cutter whenever you need it. The cutter does not is not fully retracted and you can use it as a guide.

• Differential feed

Stretch fabrics often cause problems such as puckering or distorted seams that leave you in despair. Thanks to its differential feed, the desire3 guarantees an optimum feed of stretch fabrics and thus prevents puckering or protruding seams. You can also use the desire3's differential feed to produce fanciful gathering or stretching effects.

• Handy built-in accessory compartment

No more tiresome searching for the correct desire3 accessory. The handy accessory compartment under the thread spool holder contains all important tools. 

• stitch length

One and the same dial lets you modify the stitch length and change over the desire3 to the rolled hem option. Simply read the setting value on the dial's scale.

• stitch width
  Since both the desire3's cutter and the chaining finger move together, it really is the stitch width that changes and not just the cutting width, as with other conventional machines. This prevents overcutting and undercutting.
