The Janome CoverPro 2000CPX is a high-speed, heavy-duty coverstitch machine designed for sewists looking for a professional finish on hems and seams. Its innovative design merges the durability and functionality of an industrial-style cover hem machine with the familiarity and ease of use of a conventional home sewing machine .
Unlike a serger (overlocker), which trims seams, the CoverPro 2000CPX is a dedicated coverstitch machine. It creates professional-looking hems on knit and stretch fabrics, such as those found on store-bought t-shirts, leggings, and athletic wear . It features a unique free arm configuration, an extra-large bed space, and advanced tension systems for superior stitch quality.
