Bernina Report 930 Electronic
 

I picked up a Bernina model stated above at an estate sale today for $25. In excellent condition, judging by how it looks. There's no owners manual, but I can download one on the internet. Can anyone tell me anything about this machine? Thanks!

It is an awesome machine!

Usually selling for over $500 .

I believe the proper name for it is Bernina Record, not ​ Report.

Great machine! I have one at home.

It has a couple features that make it unique for a machine of it's age. It has a "needle-up clutch." so when you stop sewing the needle will always stop in the up position. It also has a "half-stitch, rock back" in the foot control. So, if you want the needle down, you just push with your heel. Then another rock-back will bring the needle up. It also has a basting devise. You can tell the needle to stay up (and not stitch) for every-other stitch or every 3 stitches. If that feature isn't used regularly, it can freeze-up the needle bar. So if it is working, use it. If it is frozen, you're better off not trying to using it. It's really hard to get it un-frozen.

I bought mine new in 1983. Back then it came with a sewing cabinet. It's a workhorse of a machine. It will sew thru belt leather. I used it so much I wore the teeth off the feed dogs. I think that's the only thing I ever had replaced on it. It still works like the day I bought it.

What a buy!!!!! You are so lucky. Marcia
