I hate how long it takes to do the simplest of tasks on this machine, because of the mechanical errors and problems each time. I have gone through 2 boxes of needles and countless thread spools because of the wasteful functions and bobbin problems. Bottom-line, I want to turn this "shark" into chum. from Target.com As a former sailmaker I have used many different commercial machines. I didn't expect much out of this home machine for the price but I figured why not give it a try. I brought it home and started sewing on a little home project of mine and the Shark went right through 4 layers of webbing with no problem. I am thoroughly amazed at how this cheap little machine went right through everything I wanted it to sew. from Target.com One star is a compliment! I don't know how the others who gave glowing reviews can use this piece of $*%*^! I turned to the Shark Pro website for additonal help - was just as useless. Going back to Target tomorrow to return. from Target.com i was going to purchase another machine, but it was not in stock. the shark euro-pro was within my price range so i decided to give it a try. i have been using it to tailor my scrubs for school (5 sets), and have not had a problem yet. from Target.com (I myself own a Brother machine which I have used and abused for over 25 years and it is still going strong.) The instruction book and "troubleshooting" section is a joke. And the cheap thin plastic cover is an insult. Don't be tempted by the low sale price and advertised 60 stitches on this machine!!! from Target.com I only used the machine a few times before it started messing up on me. The thread bunches up underneath like crazy! Tried to get into contact with the Shark Euro Pro company and left numerous emails, with no help! There is no phone number to contact the company either, so unless you're an experienced sower and don't need any assistance, don't buy this product! from Target.com The instruction book is very primative and doesn't handle troubleshooting very well. I've used much better sewing machines such as Elna. I won't buy another Shark! from Target.com The Shark 384 is a great machine but the manual lists a whole bunch of presser feet, etc that are available, but I can't find them anywhere. This really limits the machine's capabilities. from Target.com The manual assumes that you've sewn before and that you are familiar with the basics of sewing machines. You will need to adjust the tension carefully, if the tension is wrong, the fabric may not move. Some people complained about this in reviews of the other shark machines, but there is a lovely chart in the manual that tells you where each dial should be set for light, medium, or heavy fabrics. If you use the chart, you shouldn't have any problems. from Amazon.com i found it a bit complicated to insert the lower bobbin and have it work correctly, but after this minor setback the machine has been great. from Target.com
