Date of Review:  Jul 19, 2006
Review: I purchased this iron at Sears ($70.00) last August & thought I had found the best iron ever! It was heavy, used tap water, I was happy. Obviously I had an error in judgement. It leaked and then just stopped. No warning, no lights, no heat, nothing!...

Not a good iron.

Date of Review:  Sep 14, 2007
Review: Apparently we have the same experience as everyone else. Paid extra for what we thought was a nicer iron. Now, after five months, it stopped working. I found a short in the cord and have asked Shark for a replacement cord but am sure it won't be...

Performing Great . . . .So Far!

Date of Review:  Jul 20, 2009
The Bottom Line: I have only used this product for the past six months but so far have been totally satisfied with its performance and would recommend it to others.
Review: I bought the Euro-Pro Shark G1490 Professional Electronic Iron about six months ago after my son borrowed my old dollar store iron and never returned it. I had only paid ten dollars for the old iron but it had lasted me over five years so I figured...

Dissatisfied with my Shark. I believe this Shark died way too early.

Date of Review:  Nov 3, 2008
The Bottom Line: My recommendation is that everyone who has had a problem with the Shark iron, should get a complete refund.
Review: I bought this iron not even 2 years ago. I liked this iron, because it ironed my clothes really well, unlike other irons. I wanted an iron that really gets hot. From day one it didn't produce a burst of steam like the box said it would. The silver...

I'm STEAMED Over This Iron!

Date of Review:  Jul 26, 2006
Review: My story is similar to others I've read, but I feel like I need to add my two cents worth. I purchased this iron at Target 6 months ago. I used the iron on average 4 times per week for touch up ironing & steaming.
Initially it worked great. I...

Do Not Buy This Product

Date of Review:  May 27, 2008
