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 Practik 9
“This is my favourite mechanical machine. It is very easy to use and to learn, with no limits on fabric or number of layers. It works very well with all kinds of projects, so it is not ‘limited,’ which is a fear when selecting a sewing machine. The Practik 9 is a very complete machine, aesthetically very beautiful, and at a very affordable price.”
Diana Baena"Mami Crafter"
“We love it because of how gently it sews and how easy it is to learn with, the automatic threader, and the buttonhole maker, in 1 step! It’s an all-terrain vehicle; it can sew a delicate fabric and also a thick one. Alfa is a brand intertwined with our tradition and our history. Many of our students remember seeing their grandmothers sew with an Alfa!”
