Compare Pfaff overlockers and combination coverlock machines for dressmaking, jersey fabrics and neat seam finishes at Fabric Mouse. Explore straightforward overlocking alongside air-threading models and machines that also offer coverstitch.
What is the difference between an overlocker and a coverlock machine?
An overlocker trims and finishes fabric edges, and can sew seams in suitable fabrics. A combination coverlock machine also offers coverstitch for hems and decorative finishes. Check the stitch list for the exact model: not every Pfaff overlocker makes a coverstitch.
What does air threading do?
On equipped models, air helps pass thread through the loopers, making that part of threading easier. It does not remove every threading step. Compare the threading system and needle-threading arrangements on each model.
Which features help when sewing jersey and stretch fabrics?
Differential feed helps control stretching and puckering. For T-shirt and activewear hems, compare coverstitch options; for joining and finishing edges, consider the overlock stitches you will use most. A combination machine needs its setup changed between overlock and coverstitch work.
