Don't Waste time/money
I got this sewing machine at Target thinking that it would be nice to have a small sewing machine as I live in the dorms. I thought that I would not need to bring my bulky sewing machine to school. I tried using it and I just gave up. I've sewn quite a lot and this was just terrible. Firstly It would not work by the outlet plug and I had to try batteries. Then It kept jamming itself and turning off. All in all this machine is a joke - don't waste your money.
Not even as good as a toy
I have a nice Euro-Pro sewing machine that I love, so I thought this one would be perfect as a stand-in while mine is being tuned up. I only wanted it for simple stitching as I save the big stuff for my other machine. I was very disappointed. This machine is very cheaply made, it feels and sews like a toy. Though I'm not a professional seamstress, I do know how to sew but I couldn't get this machine to sew more than a few stitches without jamming up. Luckily, I bought my daughter a Mini-Rex, which was cheaper and works loads better. This one went right back to the store, it's a definite "NO".
Shark is short-lived!
I received this machine as a birthday present. The first night I tried it, the power and light would turn on and off at random intervals until I could not turn it back on. I returned it to Target where I was given half of the machine's retail price because I did not have a receipt! (Did I mention this was a gift?) I purchased a Singer 8280 and I am very excited about it. Don't waste your time or money on this machine, the frustration is not worth it!
