Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a coverstitch machine and a regular serger?

A coverstitch machine creates the parallel rows of topstitching you see on ready-to-wear t-shirt hems and necklines, while also forming a secure looper thread on the underside. Unlike a serger that trims and finishes raw edges, a coverstitch machine is used for hemming and decorative topstitching on knits and stretch fabrics. The bernette 42 FUNLOCK is a dedicated coverstitch-only machine, not a combination serger.

What accessories are included with this used machine?

This gently used bernette 42 FUNLOCK includes all original accessories and packaging that came with the machine when new. It has been inspected and certified by our technicians to ensure everything is complete and in excellent working condition.

Does this used machine come with the full manufacturer warranty?

Yes. This machine is backed by bernette's full 10-year mechanical parts, 2-year circuit board, 2-year electrical, and 1-year labor warranty. As an authorized bernette dealer, OSP Machines also provides free support for the life of your machine.

Is the bernette 42 FUNLOCK suitable for beginners?

The bernette 42 FUNLOCK is best suited for intermediate to advanced sewists who already have experience with stretch fabrics and understand how coverstitch machines differ from regular sewing machines and sergers. While it includes helpful features like color-coded threading guides and a needle threader, coverstitch machines require practice to master tension settings and fabric handling techniques.

Can this machine sew regular seams or is it only for coverstitching?

The bernette 42 FUNLOCK is a dedicated coverstitch machine designed specifically for hemming and topstitching knits and stretch fabrics. It creates coverstitches and chainstitches but cannot sew standard straight seams or finish raw edges like a serger. You will still need a regular sewing machine or serger for garment construction and edge finishing.
