Bernina 8 Series




This is not an ordinary sewing machine, but a high-end sewing and embroidery system made by the swiss company with over 100 years of experience in this industry.

The 8 Series brings two models, the Bernina 820 and 830 Bernina embroidery machines, the first one being prepared for the market in 2009, featuring a 12-inch extended arm, a 12.8-inch diagonal space, 5.12-inch height, the world’s fastest home sewing speed of 1,100 stitches per minute, the Bernina Stitch Regulator for free-motion sewing, a pop-out jumbo bobbin with 40% more capacity than the other machines, the Bernina Dual Feed for better control your largest quilts, presser-foot height adjustments, a row of bright LED lights illuminating the work space, and multiple spool holder for large and small cones.



Bernina 830 has a larger extended arm of 15 inches, 12 inches to the right of the needle, expanded height clearance, 12 ½ inches of diagonal space, 40 inches long, optional jumbo hoop of 16 x 10 inches for larger space, a 15mm clearance under the foot, 1,100 sewing stitches per minute, up to 1,000 embroidery stitches per minute, no vibrations, the BERNINA Stitch Regulator, the unique 360-degree-multi-directional sewing on all 9mm stitches, adjustable length and width, quick-reverse feature, Altered Stitch Memory that remembers altered stitches when the power goes Off, and an impressive central 7-inch touchscreen TFT displaying high-definition color images of all the functions you need. The interface gives you access to wallpaper customization, 3D icons, soft keys, and screen adjustments for light and contrast.



Bernina 830 was designed according to the needs of passionate sewers, quilters and embroiderers worldwide, and is based on 70 exclusive features and 15 patented
Features.



"For the first time, there is one machine with all of the features and technology to allow sewers and quilters to express their unlimited creativity," said Martin Favre, president of Bernina of America. "It's a
milestone to see the BERNINA 830 come to life after almost a decade of research and development that will change sewing history as we know it."



Unlike the 820 model, Bernina 830 will be available later this year and is available now for pre-orders.

I read somewhere that Bernina is going to offer a frame for the 8 Series machines. Will this be a floor standing quilting frame that the machine can ride on like a long arm quilter?

Well, it seems that Bernina 830 has the Quilt Frame as an optional accessory for twist-and-lock rails, to be easier to to extend your frame from 60 inches to 120 inches. Here you can see it and all the other optional accessories.

How much does the 830 cost?

$12,000, but dealers can bring it down to no less than $10,000. A bit too much for me, but worth every penny.
