Bernina 1260 Quilter's Platinum Ed. 1-Owner Machine

$0.00

($0.00 shipping)

Pay with PayPal or a debit/credit card

 We strive to offer only the best machines, always in the most outstanding condition, and this 1260 is a perfect example of the quality standards we diligently maintain.  These same expectations must also be met by the parts not visible in the photos.

I have completely cleaned, lubricated, timed and balanced this machine to perfection.  All features are 100% functional.

Original built-in incandescent lighting upgraded to high-output, daylight spectrum SMD LEDs to provide the best illumination possible to your work area and to reduce the amount of heat rising into the machine, where over time it could potentially damage sensitive board components.

Not only have all control boards been thoroughly inspected and tested for weak points and excessive heat production, but additional life-extending treatments have been applied, enhancing performance at the same time. 

As you probably know, the 1260 is a tough model to track down.  One that's backed by a 2-Year Guarantee from SOS Machines, and in outstanding condition such as this is even more difficult to find.  You certainly won't find one anywhere else.

Foot control

Work bed extension

Bernina LED Light Retrofit KIT V1 1020 1030 1090 1130 1230+

$39.99

($0.00 shipping)

Pay with PayPal or a debit/credit card

  

       PREMIUM HIGH-INTENSITY SMD LED RETROFIT KIT INCLUDES:

   2 BULBS* + 1 SPARE* + 2 YR. FREE REPLACEMENT   + QUICKFIT TOOL

                        

No external fixtures to mount or plug in.  Our exact fit replaces factory      light bulbs in the following  Bernina Models:


 1020, 1030,1031, 1080, 1090, 1130, 1120, 1230, 1240, 1260, 1530, 1630 


 (For your benefit, I have included vital information below, please take the time to read thru to the end. 🙏🏽)


Upgrade to LED for brighter illumination, better visibility and increased longevity of delicate circuit boards by eliminating excess heat buildup inside your machine.


When it comes to improving the lighting of your vintage Bernina the options are very limited.**  The power supply board only provides enough current for two 6V bulbs, drawing NO MORE than 4 watts each.  You may find some sellers offering 12V bulbs that fit your machine, but please think twice, because your power supply board WILL begin to fail shortly after installation.  The use of bulbs requiring wattage higher than 4W will cause it to overheat & slowly cease to function. Other bulb type factors regarding AC/DC, polarity, etc. must be considered; if slightly off you'll find that only one bulb will illuminate.


SOS Machines Premium High-Intensity SMD LED 3-piece Retrofit Kit provides one pair + one spare, high-output, DOWNWARD FACING SMD LED bulbs + our special QuickFit installation tool, as well as detailed instructions.  This design ensures no light shall be wasted on lighting the inside of the machine.


Our kit is guaranteed to fit and replace the original, antiquated factory lighting in your Bernina sewing machine. (Please see that your model is on the list.)  It is the BEST means by which to safely and effectively illuminate your work area, aside from installing a dedicated 12V power supply. (Which I'd be happy to do for you, just message me if interested, or see our NEW LED Retrofit Kit  2.0 for nearly TWICE the light output!)


By utilizing the brightest available bulb options while staying well within factory specifications, you and your machine will benefit from:


6000K Cool White Light

240 Lumens EACH (per bulb)

30,000 Hour Lifespan

Minimal Thermal Waste

90% Less Energy Consumption (Which means less demand placed on the power supply board)

2-YEAR FREE REPLACEMENT GUARANTEE! (Not that you'll need it, but it's there just in case.)


This easy, affordable upgrade is one of the best things you can do to ensure that your Bernina lasts as long as possible.


Simple to install -- your Kit includes our QuickFit Installation Tool to make it even easier!


* Only our LED Retrofit Kit features high intensity SMD LEDs. THESE ARE NOT part #3055000-LED like everyone else is using.  If you should choose one of the other, cheaper options, you will be getting an inferior product which in no way comes close to matching the performance of our Kit.


** One of my primary reasons for creating a lighting upgrade kit to replace original bulbs and utilize existing wiring was to eliminate the need for add-on external light strips, which require adhesives in order to be mounted and an unsightly wire connected to an additional power source in order to operate.  These units are rarely bright enough and typically burn out quickly due to failing resistors.  Most people use them in conjunction with the existing incandescent bulbs, so the excess heat production issue is not eliminated!  These cheap alternatives do nothing to extend the life of your circuit boards, and with high failure rates, they end up costing you far more in the end.  


If you own a Bernina, you own a high-end piece of machinery. Why not treat it as such?  Taking proper care of your machine ensures that it will continue to serve you well for years to come.


Free shipping applies to the Contiguous United States ONLY.  If you reside elsewhere, please contact me to make special arrangements.

1020, 1030, 1031, 1080, 1090, 1120, 1130, 1230, 1240, 1260, 1530, 1630

Specialty service offered for sewing machine circuit board repair.

Bernina Circuit Board Repair

$595.00
Pay with PayPal or a debit/credit card

 This listing is for a SERVICE to repair the PC Board in your EXISTING classic Bernina sewing machine.  For eligible models, scroll to the end.


You may have been told at some point that your machine is irreparable due to a circuit board failure because parts are no longer available or that there are no Bernina technicians with the know-how to perform such repairs anymore.  This simply isn't true.  The short version of a long story is that it's much easier and lucrative for whomever told you this if you just buy a new machine. (Maybe trade your old one in, too, so it can be cannibalized for its valuable parts.) Sound familiar?

Unfortunately, this is the cold hard truth about what's happening and why it's so commonplace.  It also goes against everything I stand for, not just ethically speaking, but the core principle of what my company is based upon: that they don't make machines like they used to and the ones that still exist need to be kept alive whenever possible -- hence the name: SaveOurSewing Machines.

After purchasing this service you will need to send me your machine.  I have detailed instructions to guide you through the proper packing procedure, ensuring the machine arrives without shipping damage.  It will need to be insured for the value of a used replacement of the same model.  (When I send it back it will be insured for the FULL VALUE of a completely functional, refurbished machine.)

Your machine will need to stay with me for approximately two weeks.  The finished item will be shipped to you NEXT DAY, upon its completion.

In addition to repairing the board, your machine will be fully-serviced and once again be performing as if it were new.  By going through the entire machine and addressing any other issues I may find, it allows me to guarantee my work, for your peace of mind.

Not every machine sent to me will be repairable.  Occasionally, one will come along which is just too far gone, for whatever reason.  In this case, I will discuss your other options with you.  If nothing is a satisfactory substitute, your machine will be returned to you and you will be issued a full refund, minus return shipping costs.
 

Upon making your purchase you will be provided with my mailing address (zip code 95037) and instructions on how to proceed with packing (as mentioned above), as well as the best, most affordable and reliable shipping options.  The goal is to make this process as seamless and as easy for you as possible.


The total cost of this service covers the circuit board repair, machine service, LED lighting upgrade and return shipping, with insurance.  It does NOT include any additional parts which may be required or the initial cost of shipping the machine to me. (Often, additional parts aren't required at all.  If they are, it's usually something minor like a needle plate, spool pin or new hook.)


Bernina models eligible for this service are: 

1020, 1021, 1030, 1031, 1050, 1070, 1080, 1090, 1091, 1130, 1120, 1230, 1240, 1241, 1260
