Bernina Machines
I have seen on this list a couple of times question about taking Machine to another country , My understanding for a Bernina machine to work (from Australia in America) (from England in America) all you have to do is purchase a new figure eight cord with your appropriate power point on and the machine will work , they have been like this for the past tens years or so . You do not need a power converter . Cathy

Even a dual voltage machine will usually have a switch that you have to flip to change it over. Changing the cord only makes it possible to plug something in, but it doesn't prevent the machine from burning out if used at the wrong voltage. Not all Bernina sewing machines are dual voltage. Check with Bernina for your specific machine. I burned out a hair dryer using it without a transformer and almost scared myself silly at the same time, so be very careful with your sewing machine.

Your Bernina is dual voltage so you can use it anywhere in the world!! one of the reasons I chose Bernina in the first place...
This person knows because of all the countries she has lived in and quilted in using her bernina.
