The BERNINA L 850 is a high-performance, Swiss-engineered 2/3/4-thread overlocker featuring one-step air threading for the loopers, designed for speed (1,500 stitches/minute) and ease of use. Key features include a large sewing space (5 5/8" to the right of the needle), a free arm, Micro Thread Control (mtc) for precise edges, and a swing-out presser foot for easy needle access.

Key Features and Benefits
  • One-Step Air Threader: The looper threads are automatically positioned and threaded via the foot control, eliminating manual threading hassle.
  • Total Stitch Control: All settings—stitch length, differential feed, cutting width, and tension—can be adjusted while sewing.
  • Mtc (Micro Thread Control): Allows for fine-tuning the overedge thread amount with a simple knob.
  • Generous Workspace: Offers a spacious workspace and a free arm for sewing cuffs and sleeves.
  • Convenience Features: Includes a built-in needle threader, knee lifter (FHS), and a swing-out presser foot with automatic re-engagement.
  • Easy Threading Path: Color-coded, one-path threading makes it easy to switch between, or set up, stitches.
Performance
  • Speed: Operates at a maximum speed of 1,500 stitches per minute.
  • Fabric Handling: Excellent for a wide variety of fabrics, from delicate to heavy materials, thanks to the adjustable differential feed.
  • Versatility: The machine features an integrated 2-thread converter for flexibility in stitch types, including rolled hems.
  • Needles: Uses standard household sewing machine needles.
The L 850 also includes an extension table for increased workspace, making it suitable for both professional and home use.
