Bernina was founded in Switzerland more than a century ago and has developed a reputation for making the best state-of-the-art sewing machines, embroidery machines, sergers, and embroidery software. There are nearly 500 Bernina trained dealerships in the U.S.

The Bernina 830, which debuted in 2008, was designed to change the home sewing industry. Even with the world economy in recession, sewing enthusiasts are making the choice to invest in Bernina sewing machines.

Bernina is a top choice of the sewing industry because the machines are extremely well made and the company provides extensive training to its employees. Every employee can answer technical or customer service questions.

The company does take a lot of risks. In a belief that the Bernina sewing machine can enhance all sewing related endeavors, the company has pushed their sewing machines worldwide. This is part of the reason employee training has been enhanced. To provide excellent service worldwide, all employees have to play a customer service role.

Bernina is known for their quality, reliability, and user friendly designs. The Bernina sewing machines are designed such that multiple accessories are compatible with sewing and quilting machines. Bernina also offers a great line of embroidery machines available in both stand alone versions or in combination with sewing machines. The best choice is to buy a combo sewing and embroidery machine to produce professional results very fast. Most demanding textile artists chose the Bernina combo sewing and embroidery machine.

Home overlock sewing machines, or sergers as they’re sometimes called, allow the user to sew, cut, and finish seams all in one step. Overlockers work very rapidly, improving the productivity of the worker and the home crafter. Bernina not only makes sewing, embroidery, and overlock machines, they also make the software that maximizes the creative uses to which the machines can be put.

While the professional proprietor of a home sewing business needs an affordable machine, they also need the speed and reliability to compete with some of the larger companies. Bernina sewing machines offer efficient machines to make any sewing business profitable. Sewing industry enthusiasts choose Bernina sewing machines for the reliable speed, quality, and professional results.
