Description
The overlock/coverstitch combo machine with easy air threading
The bernette 68 is a combination machine offering overlock, coverstitch, chainstitch and combo stitches. Its many strengths include an air threader for easy threading of the looper threads, 5" (130mm) of space to the right of the needle for comfortable sewing of large projects - especially when coverstitching - an integrated free arm for sewing cuffs, bright illumination of the sewing area with 5 LEDs, and a knee lifter for lowering and temporarily raising the presser foot. With 31 different stitches, it leaves nothing to be desired.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 6 reviews.
Arrived promptly, and the machine is great! Instructions for use could be clearer, but that’s Bernette’s thing to improve, but some YouTube videos helped. Very, very happy with my purchase!
Machine is great very easy to use and switch between coverstitch and overlocker. It takes a little time to learn what settings to change to get the desired effect, instruction manual not the best but luckily there are videos online. For such an expensive machine I did expect it to come with a cover so that is disappointing and I am yet to receive my mini vacuum. Delivery was quick.
Good every thing But I want some presser foot of pico and zig zag presser foot and I need some thread for pico
I would thoroughly recommend this overlocker. So easy to thread and the stitch range and quality is brilliant. Definitely worth the money!
Love this machine. Been waiting for it to come to the UK - Price and delivery from Live Sewing we're great. Beautiful machine and easy to use.
