Made in America, designed for sewist, lifetime warranty! Horn of America created the perfect cabinet for any machine but the Bernina 990 looks amazing on it.
Watch this short video of our owner and the president of Horn of America showing you this cabinet and all its glory!
Also, so sorry for the sound quality, it’s a busy show! 🤪
Key take aways:
Opening = 34 inches so that you can have more room to sit in front of the needle and have a place for your legs!
Storage = 3 drawers, embroidery module storage, hoop storage
Corner filler = fills the corner so that your material can be supported without snagging
Warranty = lifetime!!!
We’re so sorry to have to delay out Facebook Live launching the Bernina 990 but there isn’t any machine for us to show you yet. Come back at 3:30 Arizona time / 6:30 Detroit time for a look at the new machine with me!
