Reverse button
The conveniently located reverse button allows for easy backstitching to secure your seams. This ensures durability and professional-quality results in every project.

Ergonomic knee lift
Raise and lower the presser foot hands-free with the ergonomic knee lift. This feature is a favourite among quilters, allowing for seamless manoeuvring of fabric while keeping your hands on your work.
Independent bobbin winder
The independent bobbin winder motor allows you to wind bobbins while sewing, reducing downtime and increasing efficiency. This is a must-have for uninterrupted creative flow.
Side-loading bobbin with industrial rotary hook
The side-loading bobbin design, combined with an industrial-grade rotary hook, provides smooth thread handling and reliable stitch formation. This professional feature ensures your projects always look flawless.
Larger bobbin
