Description
Alfa Compakt 500E PLUS
We recommend the Alfa Compakt 500 if you sew often but do not sew professionally. You will enjoy gentle sewing with quality stitches for allkinds of fabrics. This is a very reliable machine that can sew several layers of fabric. It has 40 stitch designs, of which three different kinds of one-step buttonholes are of note. Thanks to the two heights for the presser foot and the special patchwork stitches, no project is too big for you. Its compact size (it takes up 25% less than regular sewing machines) and its transport handle make it a very comfortable machine to carry.
If you would like to go a step farther, take a look at the Alfa Smart or Alfa 2160, and if you are looking for a simpler machine, we recommend the Alfa 474.

ALFA COMPAKT 500 for “My First Sewing Machine”
You are almost ready to get your Alfa machine, but you still have a few questions that need answering. We will try to provide a response to your concerns:
Will I know how to use it?
We are very familiar with this feeling. In our "I Want to Sew" section and in leading sewing blogs, you can find tutorials that will help you to better understand your machine. If you would like to delve into the world of sewing, you can contact our partner academies and enjoy your Alfa to its full potential. What's more, we are always in motion and organise weekly workshops in different locations, attend DIY fairs, and organise events at haute couture centres.
Will it last many years?
Over the past 100 years in history, four generations have now sewn with an Alfa. Today, we are proud to walk hand-in-hand with our customers advise them whenever they need us. Regarding old Alfa machines, for example, we strive to provide replacements. Moreover, in this section, we have over 200 old (and modern) machine manuals that we have collected, because many of you have inherited an Alfa and are still sewing with it. The truth is, there are beautiful stories behind every Alfa, and we love it when you share them with us by email and on social media.
If it breaks down, what should I do?
Contact us through this form. At our Eibar facilities (Gipuzkoa, Spain), we repair machines, provide assistance, and coordinate workshops around the country. This gives us awareness of problems and allows us to resolve them quickly.
