Bernina L860 Overlocker
The Bernina L860 is a no-compromises overlocker machine much like it's entry level brother the L850, boasting many of the same features with much much more! The L860 is perfectly suited for working with all types of fabrics, including knits as well as wovens. You’ll enjoy the ultimate serger experience when you combine the many preprogrammed stitches with the beauty of decorative threads. An innovation 100% designed and engineered in Switzerland and manufactured by BERNINA.
The foot control allows you to control the motor providing strong, consistent stitching power and precision at any sewing speed. Not only can you sew quickly, but you can also sew stitch-by-stitch, making the flaw-less production of precise lines and curves a simple process. And all of this is achieved with the extremely quiet hum of a BERNINA
