In our view, the BERNINA B 790 ULTRA is one of the most interesting all-in-one machines for anyone who wants to combine sewing, embroidery, and quilting at a truly high level. We particularly appreciate that BERNINA has not only expanded the machine with new embroidery functions but has also consistently taken quilting to the next level. The integrated BISR is a major plus here: free-motion quilting becomes much more controllable, without having to rely on a single specialized solution for every project.

The stitch plate recognition, the laser, and the many possibilities in computer-controlled quilting are also features that truly make a difference in everyday creative work. The L embroidery module with SDT is a useful addition to the machine and makes it a strong choice for demanding embroidery projects. Anyone looking for a high-quality machine that offers room for new techniques and growing demands over the years will find the B 790 ULTRA to be an exceptionally versatile system.

Product information

overview

The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA, including the L embroidery module with Smart Drive Technology, is a premium sewing, quilting, and embroidery machine for anyone who wants to bring their creative ideas to life without technical limitations. It combines a spacious work area, precise BERNINA stitch quality, and versatile convenience features with a powerful embroidery system for demanding projects.

When sewing, the B 790 ULTRA supports you with BERNINA Dual Feed, a high-precision laser, an automatic needle threader, an automatic thread cutter, and cross-feed for sewing in various directions. You can design your own stitches right on the screen, and decorative stitch patterns and monograms can be impressively enlarged using the Jumbo Stitch function. Thanks to the Undo and Redo functions, every creative step remains traceable, even with complex stitch combinations.

A key new feature is the integrated BERNINA Stitch Regulator, or BISR for short. When used with the included BISR stitch plate and a compatible BERNINA free-motion quilting foot, it ensures consistent stitch lengths during free-motion quilting—even with varying sewing speeds and when doing ruler work. This creates a particularly controlled, relaxed quilting experience, whether you’re practicing your first free-motion lines or creating large-scale quilt patterns.

The B 790 ULTRA also opens up new possibilities for computer-controlled quilting. Quilt patterns can be positioned, scaled, adjusted, cropped, and combined. With 2-, 3-, and 4-point placement—including morphing—patterns can be precisely tailored to surfaces, corners, and special shapes. Your own quilting projects can be saved directly on the machine in BQM format and edited later.

The included Embroidery Module L with BERNINA Smart Drive Technology ensures smooth movements, precise stitch patterns, and a particularly comfortable embroidery experience. The free-arm also makes it easier to embroider tubular projects such as shirts, sleeves, pant legs, or bags. Via Wi-Fi, embroidery designs can be transferred using the optional BERNINA Embroidery Software 9, and embroidery processes can be monitored with the BERNINA Stitchout app.

The centrally located color touchscreen makes operation intuitive. The built-in Help Center provides direct access to tutorials, the user manual, and advisory features. If needed, you can also access the Help Center on your smartphone or tablet via a QR code. The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA is thus a well-designed, all-in-one solution for sophisticated sewing, detailed embroidery, and modern quilting.

Characteristics

The BERNINA B 790 ULTRA is an exceptionally versatile creative system that seamlessly combines precise sewing, free-motion quilting, computer-controlled quilting, and embroidery. The integrated BERNINA Stitch Regulator ensures consistent stitches during free-motion quilting, while the automatic needle plate detection provides added safety and recognizes whichever sensor needle plate is in use. The high-precision laser indicates the needle’s entry point, making it easier to position, topstitch, and embroider with precision.

The Jumbo Stitch function allows you to enlarge selected stitch patterns and monograms for a particularly striking effect. The cross-feed opens up additional creative possibilities for multidirectional decorative stitches, and the Stitch Designer helps you develop your own patterns. The L embroidery module with Smart Drive Technology ensures smooth, quiet movement and high-quality embroidery results. The complete package is rounded out by Wi-Fi features, the Help Center, and extensive options for editing quilt and embroidery designs directly on the screen.
