Data from official source

The 44 FUNLOCK is a compact serger for edging and finishing, from 2 to 4 threads, aimed at people starting out with overlocking: colour-coded markings trace the thread path through the needle and lower looper, and the knife is driven from below, so stitch width adjusts with one hand.

It has 15 stitches spanning 2/3/4-thread overlock, a rolled hem down to 1.5 mm and a super-stretch stitch for jersey; differential feed runs from 0.6 to 2.0, so it keeps stretch hems flat and can also build deliberate gathers. It sews at 1300 stitches per minute, and the built-in waste collector keeps the work surface clear.

It is an overlock serger: it does not do cover-stitch or straight finishing seams, and threading stays manual, with no air assist. Anyone who also wants cover-stitch on the same machine should look at bernette's AIRLOCK models.
