Coverstich Bernina F42

This machine has four BIG drawbacks. 1) the gap under the foot is only 1/8", yes I measured 2) there is a black feather that should be on the foot but it is offset about 1/4" to the left 3) there there is not enough room behind the needle and thread for the left hand 4 ) There is a 1 inch wire under the looper that just sticks out of nowhere and catches the looper thread. I tried to hem three pieces and the clothes got stuck under my foot and I spent 25 minutes trying to take my clothes offโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Freehand
Cons
  • Very Expensive

The best sewing purchase so far

It came from the dealer very quickly. Many Thanks. I FINALLY have a sewing machine. It was a random purchase for this brand to be honest and then I found out which line it's from. Bernina sewing products are top notch and I was extremely happy to learn that I now have a product from them in my sewing machine arsenal. I already have a Brother Serger 1034D which is a common brand. It does what I need it to, but this coverstitch is the icing on the cake. I tested it on a sample and then finallyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • I will write later

Pleasantly surprised

For a long time I hesitated to buy this car without seeing my eyes. I've been using Phaff (an old German machine) or Bernina (770QE) for over 20 years. I usually buy my cars from a local dealer. My Bernina dealer doesn't have the Bernette line so I was hesitant to buy it online. I decided to buy an oversewing machine to sew skater dresses that look more professional than using a zig zag stitch to attach elastics to the holes. I was looking at a new Bernina L890 that would have cost $7,000โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
