The BERNINA 480 offers a wealth of features that make sewing easier. Sew longer with Bernina's Jumbo Bobbin and save time with automatic features like the thread cutter.
For Swiss fashion designer Yvonne Reichmuth "YVY" the Bernina 480
exceeds expectations
Highly sophisticated. Brilliantly simple. Like Yvonne’s beautiful designs, her B 480 expertly combines simple, easy-to-use features with innovative technology, ensuring that her stitches are impeccable on everything from leather to delicate fabrics. Her machine exceeds her expectations. You can expect the same.
The best gift I've ever received was a Bernina sewing machine. The Bernina 480 is an essential part of my studio
