Brother Innov-is A80 Computerised Sewing Machine
Your sewing needs are covered with the Brother Innov-is A80
The A80 sewing machine is value-packed with Innov-is quality stitching and fine tensioning control. Including 80 stitches, auto reinforcement settings, a lock stitch button and twin needle capability, the A80 carries incredible features that'll make your sewing days a breeze.
The Brother A-series models have extra powerful needle penetration required for thicker fabrics like denim. And with the capability of up to 850 stitches per minute, it brilliantly sews on sheers, cottons and stretch fabrics smoothly.
Express your creativity with your newest sewing companion!
80 sewing stitches
From simple straight stitches to using the built-in crocodile to adjust your stitch length as desired.
Preview the stitches on the stitch pattern plate and affix it to the top of your machine for easy viewing. The stitch pattern plate shows a preview of the stitch and its number. Use the electronic jog dial to navigate through the available stitches on the machine.
8 One Step Buttonholes
The one step ‘auto size’ buttonhole function creates perfectly uniform buttonholes in a single action.
Automatic needle threading system
Threading is easier than ever before with the Brother ‘one-action’ needle threader and the easy to follow threading guides. Simply press the button and the machine threads the needle for you!
Quick set drop-in bobbin
Just drop in a full bobbin, thread in the direction of the arrow and you're ready to sew.
LCD Display
The 62 x 23.5mm, clear LCD display automatically shows you all the important information for your selected stitch, like width, length and the type of presser foot required.
Intuitive user-friendly controls
Handy central controls help make sewing simpler. Intuitive jog dials and electronic touchpads provide fingertip control of stitch functions.
Plus, it features a speed slide control which allows you to adjust the sewing speed from slow to fast.
Bobbin Winding System
Fast and simple threading makes winding bobbins quick and easy.

Fantastic in every way
By: Dana on 18 December 2024I ordered my Christmas present (Brother A80) late on Sunday evening and was wondering if I would get it by Christmas. Imagine my surprise when it was delivered to me today (Wednesday)! Super fast express postage. Lots of little extras from Echnidna included. I love the sewing machine and thanks for the videos to guide me through set up. What an amazing customer service experience. Thanks to all at Echnidna Sewing.

Great little machine
By: Gillian on 19 September 2024I bought this machine to take to classes and workshops, etc., as my other sewing machine (a Janome Skyline S7) is too bulky and heavy. Really delighted with it. It is easy to use, sews beautifully and has a great range of stitches.
