Shop Used Sewing, Quilting & Embroidery Machines
Finding a used sewing machine, quilting machine, or embroidery machine doesn't mean settling for less. At Meissner Sewing & Vacuum, our collection of used and floor model machines gives you access to the same trusted brands sewists rely on, at a price that makes sense. Whether you're a beginner picking up your first machine or an experienced quilter ready to upgrade to a longarm or multi-needle embroidery machine, our used inventory changes regularly, so it's worth checking back often for new arrivals.
Why Buy a Used Sewing Machine?
New sewing machines, especially computerized and embroidery models, can carry a steep price tag. Buying used lets you get into a higher-end machine, think Baby Lock, Bernina, Brother, or Janome, for a fraction of the original cost. Many of the machines in this collection are former showroom floor models or display units, meaning they've spent their life in our store rather than sitting in a warehouse. Others are trade-ins from customers upgrading to a new machine. Either way, you're getting real savings without waiting for a sale on a brand-new model.
A Wide Range of Machines, All in One Place
Our used inventory spans the full range of what a home sewing room or quilting studio needs:
- Sewing machines, from simple mechanical models for beginners to computerized machines with hundreds of built-in stitches
- Sewing & quilting combo machines, ideal for anyone piecing quilts, doing free-motion work, or working with larger projects
- Embroidery machines and multi-needle machines, for monogramming, applique, and small embroidery businesses
- Sergers and coverstitch machines, for clean seam finishes and professional-looking hems
- Longarm and mid-arm quilting machines, for quilters ready to move beyond a home sewing table
Because inventory turns over as new trade-ins and floor models come in, the specific machines available today may look different next month, so if you have a particular brand or feature in mind, it's worth calling ahead or reaching out to one of our team members.
Trusted Brands, Real Savings
You'll find familiar names throughout this collection, including Baby Lock, Bernina, Brother, Janome, and Juki. These are the same brands we sell new, backed by the same product knowledge from our staff. Buying used through Meissner Sewing means you're not gambling on an unknown machine from an online marketplace. You're buying from a family owned business that's been serving sewists since 1930, with real people on hand to answer questions before and after your purchase.
Financing and Price Matching Available
Even at used prices, we know a sewing machine is an investment. That's why we offer financing options to help you spread the cost out over time, and a price match guarantee if you find a better deal elsewhere. Just bring us the offer, and we'll do what we can to meet or beat it.
Visit Us In-Store or Shop Online
Some of our used and re-certified machines are available to purchase online with fast shipping, while others, particularly larger or higher-end models, are available for in-store pickup or by quote. If you're local to Sacramento or Folsom, we'd love to have you stop by, see the machines in person, and take one for a test drive before you buy. Not local? Our virtual shopping option lets you get one-on-one help from a product expert no matter where you are.
Browse the collection above to find your next machine, and check back regularly since our used inventory updates as new trade-ins and floor models become available.
