Electronic Sewing Machine
An electronic (computerised) sewing machine uses an on-board computer and LCD screen to control stitch selection, tension, and speed, instead of the manual dials on a mechanical machine. You pick a stitch on screen and the machine sets itself up for it.
About Electronic Sewing Machine
That precision makes them a strong fit for quilters, garment sewists, and anyone who wants consistent results across a wide stitch library, including decorative stitches, buttonholes and stretch stitches, without manually adjusting tension for each one. Many also include automatic needle threading and thread cutting, which speeds up repetitive projects.
What to Look For
- Stitch library size
- Ranges from a few dozen to several hundred stitches. Think about whether you need decorative/quilting stitches or just the everyday essentials.
- Automatic features
- Needle threading, thread cutting, and one-step buttonholes save real time if you sew often.
- Speed control
- Useful for beginners who want to start slow and experienced sewists who want to work fast.
- Extension table
- Larger projects (quilts, garments) are easier with an included or optional extension table for extra workspace.

Common Questions
What's the difference between electronic and mechanical sewing machines?
Electronic machines use a screen and computer to select and calibrate stitches automatically; mechanical machines use manual dials. Electronic machines generally offer more stitches and more consistency, while mechanical machines are simpler and often more affordable.
Are computerised machines harder to fix if something goes wrong?
Not with us. We service every brand we sell in-house at our Pretoria workshop, electronic or mechanical, so repairs are never a problem.
