Bernina 485: Compact Power for Serious Sewists
The Bernina 485 packs the precision and capability of larger Bernina machines into a compact frame. With a 5.5mm stitch width, 6mm stitch length, and integrated Dual Feed, this machine handles everything from lightweight silks to heavy denim with consistent results. The extended freearm provides access for sleeves and cuffs, while the jumbo bobbin reduces thread changes during longer projects.
Integrated Dual Feed
The Bernina Dual Feed engages directly at the needle, feeding fabric from both top and bottom simultaneously. This eliminates shifting on slippery fabrics, keeps plaids aligned, and prevents puckering on knits. Disengage it instantly when not needed.
Stitch Selection
Access utility and decorative stitches through the clear display. Direct selection buttons make choosing and adjusting stitches quick, and the 5.5mm maximum width handles everything from basic construction to decorative embellishments.
Stitch Quality
The 485 produces clean, consistent stitches across fabric weights. Decorative patterns maintain their shape and density whether sewing slowly for detail work or at higher speeds for production sewing.
Jumbo Bobbin Capacity
The jumbo bobbin holds 70% more thread than standard bobbins, reducing interruptions during quilting, garment construction, or any extended project. Spend more time sewing and less time rethreading.
Extended Freearm
The extended freearm gives you room to maneuver sleeves, pant legs, and cuffs without fighting the machine. The compact footprint keeps your workspace open while the freearm configuration handles tubular sewing with ease.
Free Motion Ready
Drop the feed dogs and attach a free motion foot for quilting, thread painting, or decorative stitching. The 485 also supports ruler work with optional accessories, giving quilters precise control over curves and straight lines.
