Meissner Sewing & Vacuum Centers

Jamie Parker-Frank

I always get excellent help with my questions. Their fabric selection may not be huge but the variety is very well curated. Also, the fabric quality is top notch! The sales people are very friendly and very knowledgeable. This place is my go-to for all my quilting and machine embroidery needs.

Julianne was great to me. I hadn't used a sewing machine in 25 years. I bought a Baby Lock and I love it. As I was leaving the store with my new machine she said to me "you got this"! Thank you for the words I needed.

I knew that I wanted a Bernette b79 sewing and embroidery machine and I bought one from a large online sewing machine retailer. It was delivered but was defective and they accepted my return and refunded the costs. Then I realized that, for what to me was a large purchase, I wanted a store I could visit with staff I could get to know and assistance and education about my machine. Meissner Sewing & Vacuum Center had the best reputation so I called the Folsom store and spoke to Farrah. She was so helpful in getting the exact machine I wanted and I was able to pick it up within a couple days. Covid was in full swing and Meissner's was observing the state guided safety precautions, so our visit was necessarily brief. I have called with questions and received prompt, knowledgable answers and I even took my machine in for help with a buttonhole. Farrah and the rest of the staff are great. They really know their stuff. I did purchase the extended warranty so now I don't have to pay a thing if anything goes wrong. It also includes yearly tune-ups and lots of free classes. Because of covid, the in-person classes had been halted, but I am looking forward to the time when I can really dig into all the b79 has to offer. In the meantime, I know I can call if I get stuck. I am so happy with Farrah and the whole Meissner experience that, when a friend told me she wanted to learn to sew for her grand baby, I suggested she go to the Meissner shop nearest her home in Santa Rosa. I am sure they will help her to find exactly the machine she needs. You can get a machine just about anywhere, but its is the service afterward that matters most. Meissner gives that service and beyond.

Meissner's is a quality store that offers sewing machines, sewing machine accessories, cotton fabric, vacuums, and servicing of your sewing machines. I most enjoy the friendly staff and customer service I've received in the Folsom store. I've had my sewing machine serviced and I have purchased a new cover stitch machine in this store. I anticipate I will be a customer as long as they stay in business.
