I Purchased The New 830 Sewing Computer 3 Months A
I purchased the new 830 sewing computer 3 months ago. Very disappointed!
The biggest disappointment is the awful 'bobbin mechanism design'.
It is no way as easy to thread, which has to be done in situ, as shown their video clips, which are totally misleading.
Bernina supply a white plastic dentists mirror which you have to use to check that the lower thread has gone under a thin metal clip.
Jumbo bobbin is made from nasty thin plastic.
My two other Berninas (circa 1960 & 1980) have beautiful engineered stainless steel bobbins & bobbin holder.
Bernina should have left the bobbin design alone.
Also
*Far too many gimmicks.
*Build quality is very poor in comparison to pre 1990 machines. Plastic has replaced engineered metal.
Don't mind paying a high price for a quality product but this machine is awful
