Bernina's best contender! An elegant sewing machine for highly creative sewers. It offers absolute stitch control for more than 1764 stitch patterns. The Bernina Free-Hand System, which allows the presser foot to be raised without hands and the memory function which can store individual stitch combinations, plus the clear touch screen display offers all the benefits of high quality Bernina sewing. The B 880E provides an exclusive level of stitch control. Whether altering the stitch length, stitch width, or needle position - or even creating combinations - the machine will remember the stitch details for you.

A World Premier: BERNINA presents a world's first, the BERNINA 9 Hook! 80% more bobbin thread! Using the best of both world's (top loading and front loading)

The Bernina RL Hook allows for sewing speeds of up to 1,200 stitches per minute and up to 9 mm stitch width. The centrally placed driver and two oscillating lobes of the Bernina RL Hook allow the thread to flow unobstructed and quietly, offering top sewing quality and precision.

Extended Freearm! The BERNINA 880 includes a meticulously-engineered, extended freearm with 12 inches of space to the right of the needle-plenty of room for big sewing projects.

Exclusive! BERNINA Dual Feed. Optimum visibility and superb fabric feed. 30 LED lights brightly illuminate both the needle area and over the free arm; the brightness is adjustable. Lighting in the bobbin area provides illumination for setup tasks.
