Bernina Bernina 830 Reviews

The new Bernina 830 is the most remarkable embroidery/sewing machine I have ever used.  The features are usable, easy, mechanically and automatically correct, and fast!  The fact that it has a huge bobbin, about 40% larger than any other embroidery machine on the market, makes it ideal for designs that require huge thread counts.  It is quiet, and very stable.  The screen set-up makes adding multiple designs and "regular" stitches to the "stitch-out' is extremely easy and well thought out.  I can even SAVE  these new design configurations and stitches as a single design!! The lighting in...
