The structure is made from aluminium, which provides stability and robustness.If you would like to go one step further, take a look at the Alfa 674 or Alfa 2160, and if you are looking for a simpler machine, we recommend the Alfa Style 40.

WHY ALFA?

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?

    WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT THE
    Alfa 474

    “This is a surprising mechanical machine at a very affordable price, considering that it has features that come with more expensive machines, is very lightweight, has a very comfortable size, and behaves wonderfully with all different kinds of fabric. Its horizontal bobbin case makes it a top-line machine, in addition to its included extension table. As a mid-range machine,this is our favourite.”

    Félix M. ALFA Bilbao

    “Easy to use and intuitive, its traction force allows it to effortlessly adapt to different kinds of fabrics. The Alfa 474 machine, with its extension table, has become the perfect companion to successfully complete all our sewing projects.”

    Mª José y BárbaraALFA Valladolid

    “The ALFA 474 is one of the most powerful mid-range machines on the market. It is perfect, both for learners and for professionals. Its extension table and horizontal shuttle provide features that come with machines from superior ranges. In one same design, it combines simplicity with elegance and efficacy. This is certainly a machine that will make you love sewing.”
