840 stitch programs to choose from

The machine is equipped with an impressive 840 stitches , allowing you to easily customize the settings for any project—from simple repairs to eye-catching decorations. The set includes utility and decorative stitches, as well as programs for darning and strengthening. You can choose from special quilting stitches and beautiful cross-stitches —ideal for folk, boho, and children's projects. Selecting a specific stitch is done by touching the screen, and the parameters (length/width) can be quickly adjusted to suit the fabric thickness and desired effect.

Solid, durable construction

High Swiss quality! This embroidery machine is heavy, solid, and robust. The machine's components and frame are made of steel, which translates into stable operation, reduced vibration, and quieter sewing even at higher speeds. It features a reinforced "Heavy Duty" construction. – great for intensive use, sewing multiple layers and projects requiring precision (e.g. patchwork, quilting, bags, upholstery).

The modern BERNINA HOOK rotary hook

The hook is the heart of the Bernina sewing machine. This sewing machine features the modern 9th generation BERNINA HOOK rotary hook, which ensures smooth operation and exceptional sewing refinement. This allows for an impressive sewing speed of 1000 stitches per minute while maintaining a very even stitch. It is robotically milled from a block of metal, not poured into a mold, ensuring a perfectly smooth thread path. Optimal, constant thread tension is guaranteed. Easy to use: easy to remove, easy to clean, and easy to install – making daily maintenance easier.

Automatic Adaptive Thread Tension

BERNINA Adaptive Thread Tension, a BERNINA innovation , ensures perfect thread tension while sewing, achieving excellent stitch quality on both sides of the fabric. This makes it much easier when switching between materials (cotton, denim, knits, and slick fabrics) and with different thread types. BERNINA Adaptive Thread Tension will constantly check the thread tension, adjusting it automatically as needed – reducing puckering, looping, and uneven stitches.

BSR-Bernina Stitch Regulator function for quilting

The perfect feature for quilters! The BSR presser foot supports shift-free sewing and quilting with straight or zigzag stitches, ensuring stitches of exactly the same length even at different sewing speeds. This makes it easier to achieve professional results with quilting, free-motion quilting, stuffing, and patchwork—even if you're just starting out. It also provides greater control over curves, corners, and decorative fillings.

Convenient joystick for control

The machine has a single knob to control all functions. This is the joystick version. Great comfort! The joystick makes it easy to quickly navigate settings, confirm options, and efficiently change parameters during work—without distracting from the project. You'll especially appreciate this when sewing a series of items (e.g., curtains, accessories, clothing) or when refining details.

Large 4.3-inch color touchscreen

The Bernina B475QE sewing and embroidery machine features a large 4.3-inch touchscreen display with HD resolution and a 180-degree viewing angle, allowing you to select functions, stitches, and settings. The easy-to-read interface allows you to quickly check the selected stitch, its parameters, and workflow recommendations. This is a convenient solution for both beginners (intuitive operation) and advanced users (quick access to settings and personalization).

Professional lighting with 8 LEDs

The machine is equipped with 8 LED lights. Energy-saving, lifetime warranty. The monochromatic light is similar to natural light. It casts no shadows and doesn't strain your eyes! This makes it easier to control the sewing line. you work more precisely on dark fabrics and catch small details faster (e.g. when piping, sewing zippers or quilting).

A system for measuring the size of a hole on the screen

The machine is equipped with the Bernina Measuring System , which allows the machine's sensor to measure the button's diameter when placed against the screen! This saves time and ensures consistent results – especially when sewing shirts, blouses, children's clothing, or decorative items where aesthetics and even, well-fitting buttonholes are essential.

Electronically controlled knee lever

You raise the presser foot using the knee lever. Touch it with your knee, and the machine stops sewing, raises the presser foot, and trims the threads! All in one motion. This is incredibly convenient because your hands remain on the fabric – making it easier to maintain guidance, precisely turn the project, and work on larger pieces (quilts, bedspreads, curtains) as well as sewing curves and corners.

Speed controller with needle raising and lowering function (Optional)

You raise and lower the needle using the programmable foot controller! All in one motion. This streamlines work during precise sewing steps, such as attaching pockets, topstitching, decorative stitching, and quilting, when you frequently stop and change direction.

4 programmable fonts

The Bernina B475QE sewing and embroidery machine comes with four programmable sewing fonts . Label your projects! It's a great solution for personalization: name tags, initials, short messages on gifts, size markings in the workshop, and an elegant finish to patchwork and quilts.

Working area 180 mm!

The Bernina B475QE sewing machine features a large 180mm work area to the right of the needle, giving you plenty of room to work comfortably and a great view of your sewing project. This space makes it easier to maneuver larger pieces (quilts, patchwork, bags, outerwear) and also improves ergonomics – less fabric "rolling" and greater control over the seam.

Automatic thread trimmer

This sewing machine features an automatic thread trimmer. Simply press a button and the threads will be automatically trimmed. This feature speeds up sewing multiple pieces, reduces the number of loose threads, and helps keep your workspace tidy – especially when sewing decorative stitches, appliqués, and finishing garments.

Automatic needle threader

This sewing machine features an automatic needle threader that's easy to use and operates smoothly and comfortably. It's essential; you won't have to reach for your glasses! It also reduces eye strain and allows for faster thread color changes – something you'll appreciate when working on multi-step projects or frequently switching between stitches.

Manual presser foot pressure

Smooth presser foot pressure adjustment makes it easy to sew both thin and thick fabrics. This is crucial when working with knits (less stretching), slippery fabrics (better guidance), and when sewing multiple layers (more even feed). The result: more stable stitches, fewer puckers, and greater predictability on difficult sections.

High sewing speed

Sewing speeds of up to 900 stitches per minute offer real time savings on large projects and longer seams (curtains, bedding, bedspreads), while also allowing for slower speeds when you need maximum precision (zippers, hems, corners).

Additional sewing speed adjustment

Adjust the sewing speed using the slider on the front panel when working without a speed controller. The machine's sewing speed can be smoothly adjusted. Additionally, in the settings, you can set the maximum speed for a given project (e.g., max. 100 stitches/min for projects requiring high precision) – this provides greater safety and comfort, especially for those learning or working with delicate materials.

USB port

The machine has a USB port , allowing you to connect a USB key with updates or importable projects. This is a convenient way to expand the device's capabilities, transfer settings, and update software without complicated procedures.

We share knowledge

The Help Center includes numerous interactive, visual tips that guide you step-by-step in choosing the best sewing technique or stitch. This provides practical support in your everyday work: you'll find settings faster, avoid common mistakes, and master new techniques (e.g., decorative stitches, darning, quilting) more efficiently.

4 levels of short and long term memory

The machine has memory levels where you can save your stitch and embroidery compositions. This is ideal when you frequently return to the same settings (e.g., regular stitches in the workshop, favorite decorative stitches, or patchwork sequences). Saved combinations speed up your work and help maintain consistent results.

Needle positioning

Needle positioning is a useful feature that allows for precise sewing in difficult areas. It's especially useful when sewing zippers or binding with tape. Eleven needle positions are available. This makes it easier to align the stitching with the fabric edge, maintain an even spacing when topstitching, and precisely guide the stitch around structural elements.

START/STOP function

This function allows the machine to operate without using the speed controller . Using the Start/Stop buttons, you can start and stop sewing. This is a convenient solution for longer straight sections, for "leisurely" sewing, and for those who prefer button control (e.g., when learning or working in a confined space).

Positioning the needle in the UP/DOWN position

Needle stop up/down button. This convenient feature allows you to continue sewing after reaching a corner, for example. Stops the needle in the fabric, turns the fabric, and continues sewing in the other direction. This also provides greater control when quilting, sewing curves, and precise finishes (e.g., pockets and collars).

Automatic buttonhole sewing

The Bernina B475QE sewing and embroidery machine automatically creates up to 10 buttonholes , tailored to the size of the button. This ensures a consistent, aesthetic finish on clothing (shirts, jackets, dresses), accessories (covers, cases), and home textiles. Automation facilitates consistency when sewing multiple buttonholes in a single project.

FIX function

The FIX function automatically ties the threads at the end of the stitch , preventing unraveling. Simply press a button to activate it. Once activated, the function remembers to tie the threads. This is useful when sewing items that are subject to stress (bags, backpacks, workwear) and for quick adjustments where durability and work speed are key.

Double needle sewing

We can use a twin needle with various gauges, from 2.5 to 6.0 mm, to achieve a straight, two-needle stitch—ideal for neatly finishing the hems of knitwear (T-shirts, sweatshirts), decorative stitching, and faux-covering. The machine also features a protection against incorrect twin needle insertion, which helps prevent damage and setting errors.

STOP function

We can stop the machine at any time. This provides greater safety and control, especially when tackling difficult sections, changing sewing direction, sewing small elements, and working with delicate materials.

Adjusting the stitch length and width

Smooth stitch length and width adjustment. The maximum stitch width is 5.5 mm. This allows you to tailor the stitch to your application: shorter for precise topstitching, longer for basting and gathering, and wider zigzag for hemming edges or appliqués.

Mirror image of the pattern

The mirror function offers incredible possibilities for creating new designs. Mirroring can be performed in two planes: horizontally and vertically, creating unique compositions. It's a great tool for creating symmetrical decorations, frames, borders, patterns on cuffs, pockets, and home décor elements.

Automatic STOP after the bobbin is full

The machine stops automatically once the bobbin is full . This is convenient and saves thread – you don't have to monitor the process, and the bobbin is wound evenly and ready for use.

Changing stitch parameters while sewing

The machine allows you to change stitch parameters while sewing. This is useful when you want to adjust settings on the fly for curves, thicker areas (e.g., side seams in clothing), or achieve smooth transitions in decorative stitching.

Changing parameters while sewing

The Bernina B475QE sewing and embroidery machine allows you to change stitch parameters while sewing. This allows for more flexibility and gives you complete control over the final result without interrupting your sewing and resetting the program.

Full force of needle insertion

The electronically controlled speed controller guarantees constant and full needle penetration regardless of sewing speed. This means more reliable penetration of thicker materials and multiple layers (denim, leather, quilting), fewer missed stitches, and a more even stitch in challenging areas.

Large space under the foot

The large space under the presser foot allows for sewing thicker materials . Sewing multiple layers is no problem. This is very convenient. It also makes sewing leather or denim easier. This is an important feature when sewing bags, belts, linings, outdoor items, and projects where the fabric is "high" (e.g., quilting with insulation).

Button sewing program

The Bernina B475QE sewing machine has a special button sewing program. It facilitates the quick and even sewing of buttons on clothing, accessories, and home textiles, and is also suitable for minor alterations and repairs.

2 darning programs

The Bernina B475QE sewing machine offers two useful darning programs. They allow you to aesthetically reinforce scuffs, repair minor damage, and protect areas prone to tearing (knees, elbows, pockets). They're also a great option for reinforcing seams in workwear and utility projects.

Magnetic accessory container

The Bernina B475QE sewing machine features a convenient, magnetic accessory tray. This keeps essentials (feet, needles, screwdrivers, bobbins) close at hand, reducing the risk of losing small items while working.

Narrow free arm

It makes sewing round pieces much more convenient. It's ideal for hemming pant legs and sleeves, sewing cuffs, children's clothing, hats, and for tailoring alterations where access to tight spaces is crucial.

A table extending the work area is included in the set

It makes sewing very comfortable. The table stabilizes larger projects and "supports" the fabric, making it easier to guide long seams, quilt, and work on large-format items (quilts, bedspreads, curtains). It also allows for greater precision and reduces hand fatigue during extended work.
