Questions and answers

Is the BERNINA 790E Ultra worth it?
It is aimed at serious quilters and embroiderers who will use the large harp space, stitch regulator and 610 designs. Casual sewers will not get value from the price.
How does it differ from the earlier 790?
The Ultra adds the Integrated Stitch Regulator, Jumbo Stitching up to 500%, Stitch Plate Recognition, a pinpoint laser and advanced placement tools. The core sewing and embroidery platform carries over.
What comes in the box?
Three stitch plates and the luggage system with 360-degree wheels on the machine trolley. The trolley is a bonus for the Sewing/Embroidery Combo through December 31, 2026.
How big is the sewing space?
There are 10 inches (254 mm) right of the needle and a 13-inch (330 mm) extended freearm. That is enough for large quilts and bulky projects.
How fast is it?
Both sewing and embroidery top out at 1,000 stitches per minute. That is fast for a home combo machine.
When is the best time to buy?
Watch for bundle bonuses and dealer promotions, such as the trolley bonus running through December 31, 2026. Compare the current price with its recent range before buying.
