Our take on the Bernette B79 Embroidery and Sewing Machine

The Bernette B79 is a computerized combination sewing and embroidery machine from Bernina's lower-priced bernette line. It offers 500 built-in stitches, a color touchscreen, and a 6.3-by-10.2-inch embroidery hoop, which puts real embroidery capability in a machine aimed at beginners and hobbyists. It sits well below Bernina's own embroidery machines in price, so it is the entry point for anyone who wants both sewing and embroidery in one unit. No current store price was provided, so compare live listings before buying.

Questions and answers

Is the Bernette B79 worth it for a beginner?
Yes, if you want both sewing and embroidery without spending Bernina money. The touchscreen and guided menus make it approachable, and 500 stitches leave room to grow.
How does the B79 compare to the Bernina 790?
The B79 is a bernette, built to a lower price point. It has fewer stitches, a smaller hoop and slower embroidery, but costs far less and suits hobbyists rather than serious embroiderers.
What embroidery hoop size does it use?
It includes a 6.3 by 10.2 inch hoop, one of the larger areas in its price class. Check that your designs fit that field before buying.
What comes in the box?
Expect the machine, embroidery hoop and arm, presser feet, bobbins, needles and basic accessories. Confirm the exact bundle with the seller, since packages vary.
When is the B79 cheapest?
Combination machines tend to drop during holiday sales and dealer promotions. Track the price history here and buy when it falls below its recent range.
