One Machine for Sewing and Overlock Edge Finishing
The Janome SewSwitch 30 combines a 30-stitch sewing machine with an integrated overlock cutter, so garment construction and edge finishing happen on one machine instead of two. A rear/side trimming blade cuts and finishes edges simultaneously while you sew.

Integrated Overlock Cutter
The built-in overlock edge trimming unit cuts and neatens raw edges as you sew standard seams, saving a trip to a separate serger for everyday garment work. The combi trimming attachment and front reference panel make switching between sewing and overlock functions straightforward.

30 Stitches with 3-Piece Feed
30 built-in stitches, 3 buttonhole stitches with the Sensor Buttonhole feature, and the 3-piece feed dog system cover construction sewing from wovens to knits. Presser foot pressure adjusts with extra-high lift for bulky seams, and the drop feed dog lever supports free-motion work.

Compact, Portable Chassis
At 27.5 lbs, the retractable 8.1-inch carrying handle makes the SewSwitch 30 easier to move between a sewing room and a class. A jam-proof horizontal top-load bobbin and faceplate thread cutter keep setup quick.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the SewSwitch 30 actually switch between?
It is one machine that does everyday sewing and overlock edge finishing. A lever moves you between the two, so you can construct a seam and then neaten the raw edge without setting up a separate serger. The overlock side is a 2-thread system with the needle set in either the right or left position.
Do I still need a separate serger?
For most garment sewing, no. The SewSwitch 30 trims and overcasts the edge as you sew, with adjustable cutting width and feed length so you can tune the finish to the fabric. A dedicated serger still wins on speed and on 4-thread stitches, but for finishing seams on everyday projects this covers the job in one machine.
How many stitches and buttonholes does it have?
There are 30 built-in stitches selected with easy navigation buttons and shown on a 2-digit LED screen, plus 3 built-in buttonhole stitches with the Sensor Buttonhole feature, which reads the button and sizes the buttonhole for you. A front reference panel shows the stitch chart so you are not hunting through a manual.
How fast does the SewSwitch 30 sew?
Up to 820 stitches per minute, with a speed control slider and a start/stop button so you can sew without the foot control. Needle up and down and an auto-lock stitch button are on the front panel. It is a comfortable everyday pace rather than a production speed.
Is it portable enough to take to a class?
It weighs 27.5 lbs and has a retractable carrying handle that extends 8.1 inches, so it can be carried, though it is solid rather than featherweight. The footprint is 13.78 by 11.6 by 11.8 inches, and a half-type extension table and dust cover are included.
What warranty comes with the SewSwitch 30?
Janome covers mechanical components for 25 years, electrical components for 5 years, and labor for 1 year, and Quality Sewing adds a 1-Year Quality Sewing Warranty. See the rest of the Janome machines we carry.
