Hard working machine
by Customer A1LSNQQ37FA5J9 at April 18th, 2007
I bought this sewing machine five years ago for my son and his wife. It is a workhorse. So far it has sewed many denim layers, twill, etc. Mostly mending on men's slacks and shorts, as well as other routine mending and sewing jobs. It's a lot of hard multi-layer work. Very easy to maintain, and of course oiling and cleaning the bobbin area is essential as it is to all machines. Oil where the manual says to oil. Seems these are very toughly built, but the finishing is not as finely turned as more expensive machines like the Vikings, Janomes, Kenmores, etc. I give it only 4 stars due to the rep of Euro-Pro on service.

The problem people have with the Euro-Pros is service - the reputation for repair and service is horrendous. However, I wouldn't even try for warranty service on this machine unless it is worthless out of the box. It is a simple mechanical machine that any sewing tech should be able to diagnose and fix. It has the same parts as the rest of the mechanical machines, and a vertical bobbin setup. At least the Euro-Pro has more metal than the usual cheapie sewing machine you'll find at WALMART by brands who aren't what they used to be.
